Niacin hydrochloride is a water-soluble vitamin of the B complex occurring in various animal and plant tissues. It is needed by the body for the formation of coenzymes NAD and NADP. It possesses PELLAGRA-curative, vasodilating, and antilipemic properties.
Nicodicosapent is a fatty acid niacin conjugate. It is also an inhibitor of the sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP). The sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) is a key regulator of cholesterol metabolism proteins such as PCSK9, H
Methylmalonyl coenzyme A (methylmalonyl-CoA) is an intermediate in multiple metabolic pathways in bacteria and eukaryotes.1,2,3It is an intermediate in carbon assimilation in certain bacteria and carbon fixation in plants.1,2Methylmalonyl-CoA is converted to succinyl-CoA by methylmalonyl-CoA mutase with vitamin B12as a coenzyme.3A deficiency in vitamin B12leads to a build-up of methylmalonyl-CoA.4 1.Anthony, C.How half a century of research was required to understand bacterial growth on C1 and C2 compounds; the story of the serine cycle and the ethylmalonyl-CoA pathwaySci.

Nicotinamide riboside tartrate (NRT) is an oral NAD+ precursor that raises NAD+ levels, activates SIRT1 and SIRT3, and serves as a vitamin B3 (niacin) source. NRT also improves oxidative metabolism and protects against metabolic abnormalities induced by a high-fat diet. Furthermore, NRT mitigates cognitive decline in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.
Nicotinamide riboside malate is an orally active NAD+ precursor that elevates NAD+ levels and stimulates the activity of SIRT1 and SIRT3. Functioning as a vitamin B3 (niacin) source, it augments oxidative metabolism and provides protection against metabolic abnormalities induced by a high-fat diet. Additionally, Nicotinamide riboside malate mitigates cognitive decline in a genetically modified mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.
