Project description:Advanced maternal age, defined as 35 years or older, is associated with a decline in both ovarian reserve and oocyte quality, which leads to the female infertility, pregnancy loss, fetal anomalies, stillbirth, and obstetric complications. At present, the effective approaches to counteract the maternal age-related decay of oocyte quality are still not fully determined. Here, we report that in vivo supplementation of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) efficaciously ameliorates the quality of oocytes from naturally aged mice by recovering nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD + ) levels in oocytes. NMN supplementation increases the number of antral follicles, ovulated oocytes and matured oocytes from aged mice. Specifically, NMN supplementation maintains the normal spindle/chromosome structure and dynamics of cortical granule component ovastacin to ensure the meiotic competency and fertilization ability of aged oocytes. Moreover, single cell transcriptome analysis shows that the beneficial effect of NMN on the aged oocytes is mediated by the restoration of the mitochondrial function, thereby reducing the accumulated ROS to suppress the occurrence of apoptosis. To sum up, our data reveal that supplementation of NMN is a feasible approach to prevent oocyte quality from advanced maternal age-related deterioration, contributing to improve the reproductive outcome of aged women and the assisted reproductive technology.

Project description:Elevated ambient temperature results in heat stress which is a major concern for productivity and product quality due to its negative impact on animal health, productivity and product quality. As global warming becomes more and more serious, the impact of heat stress (HS) on animal husbandry cannot be ignored. However, the effect of NMN on the quality of porcine oocytes after heat stress and the prevention strategies are not yet fully understood. Here, we report that nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) treatment ameliorates the quality of porcine oocytes exposed to heat stress. Specifically, we found that HS caused oocyte meiosis failure by disrupting the dynamics and arrangement of meiotic organelles, showing obvious damage to cytoskeleton assembly. Furthermore, heat stress can cause damage to oocyte mitochondria, which is an indicator of oocyte cytoplasmic maturation. On the contrary, supplementation of NMN can improve this phenomenon, maintain the normal chromosome/spindle structure, and the dynamics of CGs and its core content ovastacin.

Project description:NAD+ levels decline in multiple tissues over age, causing various age-associated pathophysiologies. Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is a key NAD+ intermediate that promotes NAD+biosynthesis and counteracts age-associated physiological decline. However, how NMN transport is regulated remains unknown. Here we report a novel NMN transporter encoded by the Slc12a8 gene. Slc12a8 is highly expressed and regulated by NAD+ in the small intestine. Knocking down this gene abrogates the transport of NMN in vitro and in vivo. Slc12a8 exhibits specificity to NMN and dependency on the sodium ion. Slc12a8 deficiency significantly decreases NAD+ levels in the jejunum and ileum, due to decreases in NMN uptake traced by doubly labeled isotopic NMN. Slc12a8 expression is upregulated in the aged ileum, contributing to the maintenance of NAD in aged mice. Thus, this newly identified NMN transporter plays a critical role in counteracting NAD+ decline during aging.

Project description:NMN is the direct precursor of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and is considered a key component to increase NAD+ levels and mitochondrial activity in cells. In this study, based on transcriptome analysis, we showed that NMN alleviates poly(I:C)-induced inflammatory response in two types of human primary cell cultures, human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMEC) and human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAEC). The major inflammatory mediators including IL-6 and PARP family members are grouped into co-expressed gene modules and significantly down-regulated under NMN-dosage in poly(I:C)-induced conditions in both cell types. The Bayesian network analysis of module hub genes predicted common genes including eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1B (EIF1B) and distinct genes such as platelet-derived growth factor binding molecules in HCAEC, which potentially regulate the identified inflammation modules. These results have suggested the robust regulatory mechanism of NMN to alleviate inflammatory pathways, which may open up the possibility of a new role for NMN replenishment in chronic or acute inflammation treatment.

Project description:NAD+ availability decreases with age and in certain disease conditions. Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), a key NAD+ intermediate, has been shown to enhance NAD+ biosynthesis and ameliorate various pathologies in mouse disease models. In this study, we conducted a 12 month-long NMN administration to regular chow-fed wild-type C57BL/6N mice during their normal aging. Orally administered NMN was quickly utilized to synthesize NAD+ in tissues. Remarkably, NMN effectively mitigates age-associated physiological decline in mice. Without any obvious toxicity or deleterious effects, NMN suppressed age-associated body weight gain, enhanced energy metabolism, promoted physical activity, improved insulin sensitivity and plasma lipid profile, and ameliorated eye function and other pathophysiologies. Consistent with these phenotypes, NMN prevented age-associated gene expression changes in key metabolic organs and enhanced mitochondrial oxidative metabolism and mitonuclear protein imbalance in skeletal muscle. These effects of NMN highlight the preventive and therapeutic potential of NAD+ intermediates as effective anti-aging interventions in humans.

Project description:Peritonitis and subsequent sepsis lead to high morbidity and mortality in response to uncontrolled systemic inflammation primarily mediated by macrophages. We investigated whether the administration of a natural biosynthetic precursor of NAD+, β-nicotinamide mononucleotide (β‐NMN), could prevent clinical deterioration effects of sepsis. To this purpose, C57BL6 mice were subjected to the cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) model to provoke sepsis or were injected with thioglycolate (TGC) to induce a sterile peritonitis with recruitment and differentiation of macrophages into the inflamed peritoneal cavity. β-NMN was administered for 4 days after CLP and for 3 days post TGC treatment. Administration of β‐NMN decreased bacterial load in blood and reduced clinical signs of distress and mortality during sepsis. Transcriptomic analysis of hearts and lungs 24 hours post CLP-induction, revealed that β-NMN downregulated genes controlling immuno-inflammatory response and upregulated genes involved in bioenergetic metabolism, mitochondria biogenesis, and autophagy. In the thioglycolate model, β‐NMN treatment significantly reduced phagolysosomes acidification and inflammatory mediators secretion from bacteria-stimulated peritoneal macrophages. Transcriptomic signature of these macrophages showed that β‐NMN administration limited the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype, induced the expression of specific markers of M2 type macrophages and significantly impacted gens involved in NAD+ metabolism.

Project description:Diabetes is a chronic and progressive disease with continuously increasing prevalence, rising financial pressure on the worldwide healthcare systems. Recently, the insulin resistance, hallmark of type 2 diabetes, was cured in mice treated with NAD+ precursor β-nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), no toxic effects being reported. However, NMN has a high price tag, more cost effective production methods are needed. This study proposes a biotechnological NMN production method in Escherichia coli. We show that bicistronic expression of recombinant nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase (Nampt) and phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP) synthetase in the presence of nicotinamide (NAM) and lactose may be a successful strategy for cost effective NMN production. Protein expression vectors carrying NAMPT gene from Haemophilus ducreyi and PRPP synthetase from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens with L135I mutation were transformed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3)pLysS. NMN production reached a maximum of 15.42 mg per L of bacterial culture (or 17.26 mg per gram of protein) in these cells grown in PYA8 medium supplemented with 0.1% NAM and 1% lactose.

Project description:Type 2 diabetes (T2D) has become an epidemic in our modern lifestyle, likely due to calorie-rich diets overwhelming our adaptive metabolic pathways. One such pathway is mediated by nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), the rate-limiting enzyme in mammalian NAD+ biosynthesis, and the NAD+-dependent protein deacetylase SIRT1. Here we show that NAMPT-mediated NAD+ biosynthesis is severely compromised in metabolic organs by high-fat diet (HFD). Strikingly, nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), a product of the NAMPT reaction and a key NAD+ intermediate, ameliorates glucose intolerance by restoring NAD+ levels in HFD-induced T2D mice. NMN also enhances hepatic insulin sensitivity and restores gene expression related to oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and circadian rhythm, partly through SIRT1 activation. Furthermore, NAD+ and NAMPT levels show significant decreases in multiple organs during aging, and NMN improves glucose intolerance and lipid profiles in age-induced T2D mice. These findings provide critical insights into a novel intervention against diet- and age-induced T2D. 4 regular chow fed mice (RC1-4) vs 4 high-fat diet fed (HFD) (HFD1a-4a) mice were analyzed on one chip (Chip-A). 4 HFD mice (HFD1b-4b) vs 4 HFD-NMN treated mice (NMN1-4) were examined on the other chip (Chip-B).

Project description:Studies in rodents have shown obesity and aging impair tissue nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) biosynthesis, which contributes to metabolic dysfunction. The availability of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is an important rate-limiting factor in mammalian NAD+ biosynthesis. We conducted a 10-week, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial to evaluate the effect of NMN supplementation on metabolic function in 25 postmenopausal women with prediabetes who were overweight/obese. Insulin-stimulated glucose disposal, assessed by using the hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic-clamp procedure, increased by 25±7% (P<0.01) in the NMN group, which was accompanied by an increase in insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of muscle AKT (P<0.01), whereas neither outcome changed after placebo treatment. Body composition (fat mass, fat-free mass, intra-abdominal fat, intrahepatic triglyceride content) and muscle mitochondrial respiratory capacity did not change after treatment with placebo or NMN. These results demonstrate NMN improves muscle insulin sensitivity in women with prediabetes who are overweight/obese, independent of changes in body composition or mitochondrial function.
