Background

beta-Nicotinamide mononucleotide (β-NMN) is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide[1]. 

In a Nampt+/- mouse model of metabolic disease, β-NMN (50-100 µM) has been used to enhance NAD biosynthesis and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, demonstrating a role for Nampt in β cell function[2]. 

Furthermore, at 500 mg/kg/day, β-NMN has been shown to ameliorate glucose intolerance in high-fat diet-induced type 2 diabetes mice by restoring NAD+ levels[3].

Protocol

Cell experiment:[1]

Cell lines

Primary islets isolated from Nampt+/- and control female mice

Reaction Conditions

50 μM NMN for overnight incubation

Applications

The addition of NMN significantly augmented insulin secretion in response to 20 mM glucose in both Nampt+/- and control islets, and after NMN treatment, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) did not differ between Nampt+/- and control islets.

Animal experiment:[1]

Animal models

Nampt+/- female mice

Dosage form

500 mg/kg

Injected intraperitoneally ~ 14 h prior to intraperitoneal glucose tolerance tests (i.p. GTTs)

Applications

After NMN administration, there was no difference in blood glucose levels in i.p. GTTs between Nampt+/- and control female mice. In addition, NMN-treated Nampt+/- and control mice also had similar plasma insulin levels at each time point. These data clearly indicate that NMN administration corrects the defect in GSIS observed in Nampt+/- mice.
