Nicotinic Acid Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate

NAADP Tetrasodium Salt is a Ca2+ mobilizing agent.

Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate sodium salt has been used for agonist injection into unfertilized eggs and embryos.

NAADP induces Ca²⁺?release from the eggs of sea urchin, when injected into the cell. It can be enzymatically produced from nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (β-NADP) with the help of ADP-ribosyl cyclase.

Ca 2+ mobilizing agent. Initiates Ca 2+ release via type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1) activation. Also regulates Ca 2+ release from intracellular stores distinct from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER); displays affinity for two-pore channels (TPCs) which release Ca 2+ from acidic organelles.

Potent activator of intracellular Ca2+ release via an IP3 and cyclic ADP ribose-independent mechanism.
