NAMPT activator (NAT-5r) is a potent, small molecule activator of nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) with ITC KD of 180 nM, 3-fold improved activity over NAT.NAMPT activator (NAT-5r) had no effect on NMNAT1 enzyme activity, both NAMPT mutants of K189R and K189A reduced the binding affinity of NAT-5r.NAMPT activator (NAT-5r) treatment significantly enhanced NAD content in NAMPT-WT cells, but not in NAMPT-CRISPR cells.Treatment of NAT-5r at 3 μM concentrations for 4 h induced significant elevation of cellular NAD.NAMPT activator (NAT-5r) induced subsequent metabolic and transcriptional reprogramming, promoted proliferation and maintain the self-renewal of NSCs and protects peripheral sensory neurons from paclitaxel-(PTX) induced damage in mouse model.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
