An association of carcinogenesis and decrease of c…
It is postulated that a decrease in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) concentration has a primary association with carcinogenesis. The following observations are presented as evidence:

Mapping the role of NAD metabolism in prevention a…
Studies presented here show that cellular NAD, which we hypothesize to be the relevant biomarker of niacin status, is significantly lower in humans than in the commonly studied animal models of carcin… Read more

Correlation of high lactate levels in head and nec…
Using quantitative bioluminescence imaging, tissue concentrations of ATP, glucose, and lactate were registered in biopsies that were taken from primary tumors of human head and neck at the time of fir… Read more

Niacin deficiency and cancer in women.
A new interest in the relationship between niacin and cancer has evolved from the discovery that the principal form of this vitamin, NAD, is consumed as a substrate in ADP-ribose transfer reactions. P… Read more

Niacin and carcinogenesis.
The dietary status of niacin (vitamin B3) has the potential to influence DNA repair, genomic stability, and the immune system, eventually having an impact on cancer risk, as well as the side effects o… Read more

Biochemical assessment of niacin deficiency among …
OBJECTIVE: Carcinoid cancer patients often have elevated levels of serotonin or its precursor 5-hydroxytryptophan. Normally, serotonin synthesis accounts for a small fraction of tryptophan catabolism,… Read more
