Nicotinamide N-oxide is a major nicotinamide catabolite in mice but not in humans and rats. A high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the simultaneous measurement of nicotinamide, nicotinamide N-oxide, N(1)-methyl-2-pyridone-5-carboxamide, and N(1)-methyl-4-pyridone-3-carboxamide in mice urine was developed by modifying the mobile phase of a reported method for measurement of nicotinamide N-oxide.

: Clinical findings have shown a negative correlation between the severity of depressive symptoms and serum uric acid levels in men, yet the role of metabolic regulation in the pathophysiology of depression remains largely unknown. : In this study, we utilized an acute restraint-stress-induced male rat model of depression to investigate biochemical changes through NMR-based metabolomics combined with serum biochemical analysis. Additionally, we employed qPCR, immunoblotting, and enzyme activity assays to assess the expression and activity of xanthine oxidoreductase, the rate-limiting enzyme in uric acid production.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a severe injury characterized by neuroinflammation and oxidative stress. NAMO (Nicotinamide n-oxide) has anti-inflammatory and inhibits microglial overactivation in neurological disorders. However, the role and mechanism of NAMO in microglial pyroptosis after TBI are unknown.

is an excellent model organism to study respiration diversity, including anaerobic respiration of physiologically relevant N-/S-oxides compounds, such as biotin sulfoxide, dimethyl sulfoxide, methionine sulfoxide (MetO), nicotinamide N-oxide, and trimethylamine N-oxide. All strains harbor at least two, often three, and up to five genes encoding for putative periplasmic Mo/W-bisPGD-containing N-/S-oxide reductases. The respective role (substrate specificity) of each enzyme was studied using a mutagenesis approach.

Background: Uremic toxins accumulate in renal tissues and cells due to chronic kidney disease (CKD). Abnormalities in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD +) metabolism lead to the progression of CKD. NAD + metabolites, such as N-methyl-2-pyridone-5-carboxamide (N-Me-2PY) and N-methyl-4-pyridone-5-carboxamide (N-Me-4PY), have been recognized as uremic toxins.

Objective: To investigate the effect of Tuina on the plasma metabolites of lipopolysaccharide-induced febrile in infant rabbits.

Methods: Twenty-four infant New Zealand rabbits were selected and randomly divided into three groups: saline, model, and Tuina. The fever model was established by injecting LPS intravenously through the ear margin vein in the model group and Tuina group, respectively.
