NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every living cell that is essential for energy metabolism, DNA repair, and cellular signaling. Its levels naturally decline with age.

No. NAD+ is a dinucleotide coenzyme, not a peptide. It is included in research catalogs because of its significant role in cellular biology and aging research.

How should NAD+ be stored?

Lyophilized NAD+ should be stored below -20°C, protected from light and moisture. It degrades rapidly in aqueous solution, so reconstituted preparations should be used promptly.

What is the relationship between NAD+, NMN, and NR?

NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide) and NR (Nicotinamide Riboside) are precursors that the body converts into NAD+. They are often studied as alternative strategies for raising NAD+ levels.

Is NAD+ FDA approved?

NAD+ is not approved as a drug. It is available as a dietary supplement ingredient in some forms. Research-grade NAD+ is sold for laboratory purposes only.

Description

What is NAD+ Nasal?

NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme present in every living cell that plays a fundamental role in cellular metabolism. It exists in two forms: NAD+ (oxidized) and NADH (reduced), and participates in hundreds of metabolic reactions including energy production, DNA repair, and gene expression regulation.

NAD+ levels naturally decline with age, and this decline has been linked to various age-related conditions in preclinical research. This has generated significant interest in NAD+ supplementation as a potential strategy for supporting cellular health and longevity.

NAD+ is a critical cofactor for sirtuins (SIRT1-7), a family of proteins involved in cellular stress response, inflammation regulation, and metabolic adaptation. It is also essential for PARP enzymes involved in DNA damage repair.

Research-grade NAD+ is sold as a lyophilized powder for laboratory and research purposes only.

Research Applications

Areas of Investigation

Energy

Cellular Energy Metabolism

Essential cofactor in glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation, the primary pathways cells use to produce energy.

DNA Repair

DNA Repair & Genomic Stability

Required by PARP enzymes for DNA damage detection and repair, supporting genomic integrity.

Longevity

Sirtuin Activation & Longevity

Serves as the essential substrate for sirtuin enzymes (SIRT1-7), which regulate inflammation, stress response, and metabolic adaptation.

Mitochondria

Mitochondrial Function

Studied for its role in maintaining mitochondrial health and bioenergetic capacity, both of which decline with age.
