Product Description
Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride (N-Ribosylnicotinamide chloride; Nicotinamide-beta-riboside chloride), a pyridine-nucleoside form of vitamin B3, is an orally bioactive precursor to NAD+ and a source of vitamin B3. It can increase NAD[+] levels and activate SIRT1 and SIRT3.
Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride (CAS 23111-00-4) is a pyridine-nucleoside form of vitamin B3 and an orally bioactive precursor to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Also known as NR chloride, this compound increases NAD+ levels and activates SIRT1 and SIRT3. With a molecular formula of C11H15ClN2O5 and molecular weight of 290.7, it serves as a source of vitamin B3 (niacin). Nicotinamide riboside chloride is found in trace amounts in yeast-containing and milk-derived products and is used in research on metabolic disease, neurological disease, and cancer.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride functions as a precursor to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), a critical coenzyme involved in cellular metabolism, energy production, and redox reactions. By increasing NAD+ levels, the compound activates sirtuins SIRT1 and SIRT3, which are NAD+-dependent deacetylases involved in regulating oxidative metabolism, stress responses, and longevity. The compound also restores antiviral poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) functions to support innate immunity. Its primary target is the NAD+ biosynthesis pathway, specifically the nicotinamide riboside kinase (NRK) pathway.
ln Vitro
Nicotinamide riboside Chloride (0.5 nM; 24 hours) decreases Ndufa9 and SOD2 acetylation [1]. In C2C12, Hepa1.6, and HEK293 cells, nicotinamide riboside chloride raises intracellular and mitochondrial NAD+ levels in a concentration-dependent manner within the concentration range of 1-1000 μM [1]. Innate immunity against the coronavirus (CoV), which causes COVID-19, is supported by chlorinated nicotinamide riboside, which also increases NAD and restores antiviral poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) function [3].
In vitro studies demonstrate that Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride (0.5 nM; 24 hours) decreases acetylation of Ndufa9 and SOD2, indicating increased NAD+-dependent deacetylase activity. In C2C12, Hepa1.6, and HEK293 cells, the compound raises intracellular and mitochondrial NAD+ levels in a concentration-dependent manner within the 1-1000 μM range. The compound supports innate immunity against coronavirus (CoV) by increasing NAD and restoring antiviral PARP function. It enhances oxidative metabolism and provides protection against high fat diet-induced metabolic abnormalities.
ln Vivo
Nicotinamide riboside chloride oral supplementation (400 mg/kg/day) for 16 weeks enhances intracellular and plasma NAD+ levels in a tissue-specific manner [1].
In vivo studies show that oral supplementation of Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride (400 mg/kg/day) for 16 weeks enhances intracellular and plasma NAD+ levels in a tissue-specific manner in C57Bl/6J mice. The compound reduces cognitive deterioration in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease. By boosting NAD+ levels, it plays a role in promoting cellular repair, enhancing metabolic function, and supporting healthy aging. The compound has shown protection against high fat diet-induced metabolic abnormalities and may have applications in metabolic and neurodegenerative diseases.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro enzyme/receptor binding assay for Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride involves measuring NAD+ levels in cell lysates using enzymatic cycling assays or LC-MS/MS. Cells are treated with the compound at concentrations ranging from 1-1000 μM for 24 hours. NAD+ and NADH levels are quantified using colorimetric or fluorometric methods. SIRT1 and SIRT3 activity is measured using fluorogenic peptide substrates in the presence of NAD+. PARP activity is assessed by measuring poly(ADP-ribose) formation. Acetylation status of target proteins (Ndufa9, SOD2, PGC-1α) is evaluated by Western blot using acetyl-lysine antibodies.
Cell Assay
Western Blot Analysis[1]
Cell Types: HEK293T Cell
Tested Concentrations: 0.5 nM
Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: diminished acetylation status of Ndufa9 and SOD2.
In vitro cellular assays for Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride typically use C2C12 myotubes, Hepa1.6 hepatoma cells, and HEK293 kidney cells. Cells are treated with the compound at concentrations of 1-1000 μM for 24-72 hours. NAD+ levels are measured using NAD+/NADH quantification kits. Mitochondrial function is assessed by Seahorse metabolic flux analysis measuring oxygen consumption rate (OCR) and extracellular acidification rate (ECAR). SIRT1 and SIRT3 activation is confirmed by Western blot analysis of acetylation targets. Cell viability is assessed using MTT assays. PARP activity is measured after viral infection or DNA damage induction.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: 10weeks old C57Bl/6J mice [1]
Doses: 400 mg/kg
Route of Administration: PO; daily; continued for 16 weeks
Experimental Results: Plasma and intracellular NAD+ content increased in a tissue-specific manner.
In vivo animal studies for Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride involve 10-week-old C57Bl/6J mice administered 400 mg/kg orally daily for 16 weeks. Plasma and tissue NAD+ levels are measured at various time points. For Alzheimer's disease models, transgenic mice are treated with the compound for several months and cognitive function is assessed using Morris water maze or novel object recognition tests. For metabolic studies, mice are fed high-fat diets and treated with the compound to evaluate protection against metabolic abnormalities. Endpoints include body weight, glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, and tissue histology.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride indicate good oral bioavailability. The compound is soluble in DMSO and water (10 mg/mL). It appears as a white to yellow solid powder. The compound has hydrogen bond donors (4), hydrogen bond acceptors (6), and rotatable bonds (3). The CAS number is 23111-00-4 and molecular weight is 290.7. After oral administration, the compound is rapidly absorbed and converted to NAD+ via the NRK pathway. NAD+ levels peak within hours of administration. The compound should be stored at -20°C for long-term preservation.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride indicates it is generally well-tolerated. As a form of vitamin B3, it has a favorable safety profile. However, high doses may cause side effects similar to niacin, including flushing, gastrointestinal discomfort, and headache. The compound is for research use only and not for human therapeutic applications. Standard safety precautions should be followed when handling. Long-term toxicity studies in animal models have not shown significant adverse effects at the doses tested. For detailed toxicity information, safety data sheets should be consulted.
