General description
Niacinamide, also known as 3-pyridinecarboxamide, is a water soluble vitamin. It is widely present in plants, animal food and cosmetics.
Application
Niacinamide has been used:
- as a component of islet maturation culture media
- to induce differentiation of insulin secreting cells
- to compare its preclinical effectiveness with that of progesterone
Biochem/physiol Actions
Niacinamide is a primary precursor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), which is an important coenzyme in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. Nicotinamide deficiency is associated with pellagra.
Nicotinamide is an amide derivative of vitamin B3 and a PARP inhibitor
