Quantifying the cellular NAD+ metabolome using a tandem liquid chromatography mass spectrometry approach.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺) is an essential pyridine nucleotide that serves as a key hydride transfer coenzyme for several oxidoreductases. It is also the substrate for intracellular secondary messenger signalling by CD38 glycohydrolases, DNA repair by poly(adenosine diphosphate ribose) polymerase, and epigenetic regulation of gene expression by a class of histone deacetylase enzymes known as sirtuins. The measurement of NAD⁺ and its related metabolites (hereafter, the NAD⁺ metabolome) represents an important indicator of cellular function.

Objectives

A study was performed to develop a sensitive, selective, robust, reproducible, and rapid method for the concurrent quantitative determination of intracellular levels of
