Abstract analysedNicotinamide forestalls pathology and cognitive decline in Alzheimer mice: evidence for improved neuronal bioenergetics and autophagy procession.
In this preclinical report, nicotinamide (an NAD+ precursor) was associated with preserved mitochondrial integrity, improved autophagy-lysosome function, activation of pro-survival signaling, reduced Aβ and tau pathologies, and improved cognition in 3xTgAD mice, but the abstract lacks critical methodological and quantitative details.
