Supplementation of Nicotinic Acid with NAMPT Inhibitors Results in Loss of In Vivo Efficacy in NAPRT1-Deficient Tumor Models

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is a metabolite essential for cell survival and generated de novo from tryptophan or recycled from nicotinamide (NAM) through the nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT)-dependent salvage pathway. Alternatively, nicotinic acid (NA) is metabolized to NA...
