Systemic Treatment with Nicotinamide Riboside is Protective in Three Mouse Models of Retinal Degeneration
2019-12-06
Abstract excerpt
Purpose: The retina is highly metabolically active, suggesting that metabolic dysfunction could underlie many retinal degenerative diseases. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD + ) is a cofactor and a co-substrate in several cellular energetic metabolic pathways. Maintaining NAD + levels may be therapeutic in retinal disease since retinal NAD + levels decline with age and during retinal damage or degeneratio...
