About NAD+
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, oxidized form) is a coenzyme found in every living cell, where it carries electrons in redox reactions by cycling between NAD+ and NADH. It is not a peptide; it is a dinucleotide made of two nucleotides joined through their phosphate groups.
Canada Research Labs supplies NAD+ as 500mg of lyophilized powder in a 10 mL glass vial, packed and shipped from Ontario.
See our NAD+ research overview.
Research background
Beyond its role in energy metabolism, NAD+ is a required substrate for several enzyme families, including sirtuins and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs). Because of these roles, cellular NAD+ levels are widely studied in laboratory models of metabolism, DNA repair and aging. A 2015 review by Verdin in Science summarizes the research on NAD+ in metabolism, aging and neurodegeneration.
NAD+ research spans cell culture, biochemical assays and animal models. Many studies measure the NAD+/NADH ratio, so researchers should note that NAD+ in solution is less stable than the lyophilized solid.
