Overexpression of Nampt in gastric cancer and chemopotentiating effects of the Nampt inhibitor FK866 in combination with fluorouracil
4 Jul 2011
Abstract excerpt
Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (Nampt), an enzyme involved in the NAD⁺ salvage pathway, is over-expressed and important in the carcinogenesis in several types of cancers. The expression of Nampt and its role in gastric cancer remain largely unknown. In this study, using real-time PCR and Western blotting we found that Nampt was overexpressed at the mRNA and protein levels, respectively, in established...
