Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) exists in an oxidized form (NAD<sup>+</sup> ) and a reduced form (NADH). NAD<sup>+</sup> plays crucial roles in cancer metabolism, including in cellular signaling, energy production and redox regulation. However, it remains unclear whether NAD(H) pool size (NAD<sup>+</sup> and NADH) could be used as biomarker for colon cancer progression. Here, we showed that the NAD(H) pool size and NAD<sup>+</sup> /NADH ratio both increased during colorectal cancer (CRC) ...[more]
