Wang, Dao-Xin
Summary
Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (Nampt) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the salvage pathway of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) biosynthesis....Taken together, our results show that hepatic Nampt deficiency aggravates dyslipidemia and liver damage in HFD fed mice. Hepatocyte Nampt can be a protective target against dyslipidemia and fatty liver.
