Nicotinamide N-oxide is a metabolite of nicotinamide . It is formed via oxidation of nicotinamide by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP2E1. Nicotinamide N-oxide (30 mM) inhibits proliferation and induces reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT; ), indicating cell differentiation, in HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cells. Urine levels of nicotinamide N-oxide are elevated in a mouse model of high-fat diet-induced obesity.
