Recent developments in the role of DNA damage response and understanding its implications for new therapeutic approaches in Alzheimer's disease

The underlying molecular mechanisms associated with sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD), a progressive neurodegenerative disease, are not yet fully understood. Adult neurons are post-mitotic cells that...

Tuning up an aged clock: Circadian clock regulation in metabolism and aging

Circadian rhythms provide temporal variation of a broad range of behavioral and physiological functions, which is precisely controlled by the internal molecular gear, the circadian clock. However, circadian...

A single oral supplementation of nicotinamide within the daily tolerable upper level increases blood NAD+ levels in healthy subjects

A decrease in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) levels is a hallmark of aging in multiple species, including humans. Our previous clinical trial showed that supplementation of 200 mg nicotinamide,...

Targeting senescent cell clearance: An approach to delay aging and age-associated disorders

Cellular senescence is the occurrence of irreversible cell cycle arrest resulting from accumulated DNA damage and the loss of proteostasis over time. Senescent cells contribute to age-related diseases...

A nonrandomized study of single oral supplementation within the daily tolerable upper level of nicotinamide affects blood nicotinamide and NAD+ levels in healthy subjects

A decrease in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) levels is a hallmark of aging in multiple organisms, including humans. We report a human clinical trial designed to assess the efficacy of single-dose...
