Nicotinic acid riboside are vitamin B3 precursors NAD+ in human diet. NAD+ has a fundamental importance for cellular biology, that derives from its essential role as a cofactor various metabolic redox reactions, as well as an obligate co-substrate for NAD+-consuming enzymes which are involved in many fundamental cellular processes including aging/longevity[1].
An effective agent for increasing nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) concentrations in mammalian cells.
ChEBI: D-ribosylnicotinate is conjugate base of D-ribosylnicotinic acid. It has a role as a human metabolite. It is a conjugate base of a D-ribosylnicotinic acid.
