Metabolism and biochemical properties of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) analogs, nicotinamide guanine dinucleotide (NGD) and nicotinamide hypoxanthine dinucleotide (NHD).

ABSTRACT: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is an important coenzyme that regulates various metabolic pathways, including glycolysis, ?-oxidation, and oxidative phosphorylation. Additionally, NAD serves as a substrate for poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), sirtuin, and NAD glycohydrolase, and it regulates DNA repair, gene expression, energy metabolism, and stress responses. Many studies have demonstrated that NAD metabolism is deeply involved in aging and aging-related diseases. Previously, we demonstrated that nicotinamide guanine dinucleotide (NGD) and nicotinamide hypoxanthine dinucleotide (NHD), which are analogs of NAD, are significantly increased in Nmnat3-overexpressing mice. However, there is insufficient knowledge about NGD and NHD in vivo. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the metabolism and biochemical properties of these NAD analogs. We demonstrated that endogenous NGD and NHD were found in various murine tissues, and their synthesis and degradation partially rely on Nmnat3 and CD38. We have also shown that NGD and NHD serve as coenzymes for alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) in vitro, although their affinity is much lower than that of NAD. On the other hand, NGD and NHD cannot be used as substrates for SIRT1, SIRT3, and PARP1. These results reveal the basic metabolism of NGD and NHD and also highlight their biological function as coenzymes.

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is an important coenzyme that regulates various metabolic pathways, including glycolysis, β-oxidation, and oxidative phosphorylation. Additionally, NAD serves as a substrate for poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), sirtuin, and NAD glycohydrolase, and it regulates DNA repair, gene expression, energy metabolism, and stress responses. Many studies have demonstrated that NAD metabolism is deeply involved in aging and aging-related diseases. Previously, we demo ...[more]

Project description:One of the biochemical abnormalities found in diabetic tissues is a decrease in the cytosolic oxidized to reduced forms of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide ratio (NAD+ /NADH also known as pseudohypoxia) caused by oxidation of excessive substrates (glucose through the polyol pathway, free fatty acids and lactate). Subsequently, a decline in NAD+ levels as a result of the activation of poly adenine nucleotide diphosphate-ribose polymerase (mainly in type 1 diabetes) or the inhibition of adenine nucleotide monophosphate-activated protein kinase (in type 2 diabetes). Thus, replenishment of NAD+ levels by nicotinamide-related compounds could be beneficial. However, these compounds also increase nicotinamide catabolites that cause oxidative stress. This is particularly troublesome for patients with diabetes, because they have impaired nicotinamide salvage pathway reactions at the level of nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase and phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate, which occurs by the following mechanisms. First, phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate synthesis from pentose phosphate pathway is compromised by a decrease in plasma thiamine and transketolase activity. Second, nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase expression is decreased because of reduced adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase activity, which occurs in type 2 diabetes. The adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase inhibition is caused by an activation of protein kinase C and D1 as a result of enhanced diacylglycerol synthesis caused by pseudohypoxia and increased fatty acids levels. In this regard, nicotinamide-related compounds should be given with caution to treat diabetes. To minimize the risk and maximize the benefit, nicotinamide-related compounds should be taken with insulin sensitizers (for type 2 diabetes), polyphenols, benfotiamine, acetyl-L-carnitine and aldose reductase inhibitors. The efficacy of these regimens can be monitored by measuring serum NAD+ and urinary nicotinamide catabolites.

Project description:Key pointsβ-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (β-NAD) is a key inhibitory neurotransmitter in the colon. The neuroeffector junction in the gut consists of enteric motor neurons and SIP syncytium, including smooth muscle cells (SMCs), interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC), and cells expressing platelet-derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα+ cells). Measuring metabolism of 1,N6 -etheno-NAD (eNAD) in colonic tunica muscularis and in SMCs, ICC and PDGFRα+ cells with HPLC-FLD, we report that (1) in tissues, eNAD is degraded to eADP-ribose, eAMP and e-adenosine (eADO) by CD38, ENPP1 and NT5E, (2) with SMCs and PDGFRα+ cells, eNAD is metabolized to eADO by ENPP1 and NT5E, (3) eNAD is not metabolized by ICC, (4) NT5E is expressed chiefly by SMCs and moderately by PDGFRα+ cells, (5) SIP cells are not the primary location of CD38. These data argue that the duration and strength of purinergic neurotransmission can be modulated by targeting multiple enzymes with specialized cellular distribution in the colon.AbstractPrior studies suggest that β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (β-NAD) is an important inhibitory motor neurotransmitter in the enteric nervous system. Metabolism of β-NAD at the neuroeffector junction (NEJ) is likely to be necessary for terminating inhibitory neurotransmission and may also produce bioactive metabolites. The enteric NEJ consists of enteric neurons and postjunctional cells of the SIP syncytium, including smooth muscle cells (SMCs), interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC), and cells expressing platelet-derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα+ cells). We examined possible specialized functions of the NEJ in β-NAD metabolism by determining the degradation of 1,N6 -etheno-NAD (eNAD) in colonic tunica muscularis of wild-type, Cd38-/- , Nt5e-/- , Enpp1-/- and Cd38-/- /Nt5e-/- mice and in SIP cells from mice expressing cell-specific fluorescent reporters purified by fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS). We measured eNAD and its metabolites eADP-ribose (eADPR), eAMP and e-adenosine (eADO) from tissues and sorted SIP cells using liquid chromatography. eNAD exposed to colonic muscularis of wild-type mice produced eADPR, eAMP and eADO. CD38 mediated the conversion of eNAD to eADPR, whereas ENPP1 mediated degradation of eNAD and eADPR to eAMP. NT5E (aka CD73) was the primary enzyme forming eADO from eAMP. PDGFRα+ cells and SMCs were involved in production of eADO from eNAD, and ICC were not involved in extracellular metabolism of eNAD. CD38 mediated the eNAD metabolism in whole tissues, but CD38 did not appear to be functionally expressed by SMCs or ICC. NT5E was expressed in SMCs > PDGFRα+ cells. Our data show that extracellular metabolism of β-NAD in the colon is mediated by multiple enzymes with cell-specific expression.
