Researchers at Case Western Reserve University and their collaborators described the use of P7C3-A20, a compound that restores nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) homeostasis, as a potential strategy to reverse Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology in advanced Aβ- and tau-driven AD models.

A multi-omics analysis led by Chinese scientists at Tsinghua University in Beijing has demonstrated that aberrant metabolism of the co-enzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) was responsible for microcephaly induced by Zika virus infection during pregnancy.
