NAD+ Precursor Nicotinamide Enhances Nerve Insulation for Rapid Electrical Signaling

Researchers uncover that nicotinamide stimulates the production of the lipid-rich multilayer membrane — myelin — that allows nerves to rapidly propagate signals in mice.

How NAD+ May Alleviate Multiple Sclerosis in Mice

Experimental therapy for neurodegenerative diseases balances NAD+ levels in Phase II clinical trial.

Phase II clinical trials indicate that the therapeutic CNM-Au8 improves neuronal function through myelin repair in neurodegenerative diseases by modulating NAD+ in the central nervous system.
