NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a critical coenzyme present in every cell, serving as an electron carrier and substrate for sirtuins, PARPs, and CD38. NAD+ levels decline ~50% between ages 40-60. Restoring levels activates sirtuin longevity pathways, enhances mitochondrial function, and improves DNA repair capacity.

Research Applications
- Longevity Science: NAD+ is studied as a critical substrate for sirtuin-mediated lifespan research. NAD+ levels decline approximately 50% between ages 40 and 60, correlating with reduced sirtuin activity, impaired DNA repair, and accelerated cellular aging. Research examines whether exogenous NAD+ repletion can reactivate sirtuin longevity pathways, enhance PARP-mediated genome maintenance, and restore CD38-dependent calcium signaling in aged cells. The buffered formulation reduces injection-site irritation for chronic research protocols.
- Neuroscience: NAD+ is studied for neuroprotection and cognitive decline prevention through multiple mechanisms. Research examines its role as a substrate for SIRT1-mediated neuroprotection, PARP-1-dependent DNA repair in neurons, and the maintenance of mitochondrial function in brain tissue. Studies investigate whether NAD+ repletion can protect against age-related neurodegeneration, improve cognitive function in aging models, and support the metabolic demands of active neural tissue.
- Mitochondrial Medicine: NAD+ is an essential electron carrier in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, making it a critical research compound in mitochondrial medicine. Research examines the relationship between NAD+/NADH ratios and respiratory complex activity, the effects of NAD+ depletion on ATP production, and whether exogenous NAD+ supplementation can rescue mitochondrial dysfunction in aging, metabolic disease, and mitochondrial myopathy models.
- DNA Repair: NAD+ serves as the essential substrate for poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) β enzymes that detect and repair DNA damage. Research examines how age-related NAD+ depletion compromises PARP activity and genomic stability, whether NAD+ supplementation enhances DNA repair capacity, and the relationship between NAD+ levels, PARP activity, and cancer susceptibility in aging and environmental exposure models.
- Metabolic Research: NAD+ is studied for its central role in cellular energy metabolism and insulin sensitivity. Research examines its effects on glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, and fatty acid oxidation through its function as a redox cofactor. Studies investigate whether NAD+ repletion improves metabolic flexibility, enhances insulin signaling, and reverses the metabolic inflexibility characteristic of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
Reconstitution Protocol
- 1 Remove the flip-off cap and wipe the rubber stopper with an alcohol swab.
- 2 Using a sterile syringe, draw the desired volume of bacteriostatic water (BAC water).
- 3 Insert the needle into the vial at an angle and slowly dispense the water down the inside wall β do not spray directly onto the powder.
- 4 Gently swirl (do not shake) the vial until the powder is fully dissolved.
- 5 Label the vial with the reconstitution date and concentration.
Storage Conditions
Unreconstituted
Store at -20Β°C to 4Β°C (freezer or refrigerator). Stable for 24+ months.
Reconstituted
Refrigerate at 2β8Β°C. Use within 30 days for optimal stability.
Avoid
Repeated freeze-thaw cycles, direct sunlight, and temperatures above 25Β°C.
Always note the reconstitution date on the vial label to track shelf life accurately.
