  • Title: [Content of nicotinamide coenzymes in rat liver under conditions of nicotinamide administration].
    Author: Mogilevich SE, Velikiĭ MM, Parkhomets' PK.
    Journal: Ukr Biokhim Zh; 1977; 49(6):39-43. PubMed ID: 22148.
    Abstract:
    The content of NAD+, NADH, NADP+, NADPH in the liver of normal, fasting rats, those on the low-carbohydrate diet and suffering from alloxan diabetes was studied as affected by nictotinamide. Changes in the NAD+ content, sum of nicotinamide coenzymes, the [NAD+] + [NADP+]/[NADH] +/- [NADPH] and [NAD+] + [NADH] (sum of nicotinamide coenzymes) ratios are mainly due to nicotinamide administration. Changes in the content of reduced forms of both nucleotides depend equally on nicotinamide administration and the physiological state of animals. Response of the rat organism to nicotinamide administration consists in a sharp intensification of NAD+ synthesis and in a less pronounced intensification of NADH, NADP+ and NADPH synthesis.
