Product Name
Nicotinamide
Synonyms
Nicotinic acid amide
Description
Nicotinamide is a form of vitamin B3 or niacin. Nicotinamide Hydrochloride inhibits SIRT2 activity (IC50: 2 μM). Nicotinamide also inhibits SIRT1. Nicotinamide increases cellular NAD+, ATP, ROS levels. Nicotinamide inhibits tumor growth and improves survival. Nicotinamide also has anti-HBV activity.

Shipping
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
In Vivo
Nicotinamide Hydrochloride (Intraperitoneal injection, 1500 and 1800 mg/Kg, 5 days per week) inhibits tumor growth in murine metastatic melanoma model.
In Vitro
Nicotinamide (0-50 mM, 24/48 h ) reduces cell number in a time-dependent and dose-dependent manner in A375 and SK-MEL-28 cells. Nicotinamide (10-50 mM, 24 h ) makes A375 cells undergo accumulation in G1 phase, reduction in S phase, and increase inthe sub-G1 (apoptosis) phase. Nicotinamide (1-50 mM, 6 h ) increases NAD+, ATP and ROS levels in A375 and SK-MEL-28 cells. Nicotinamide Hydrochloride (0.01-20 mM, 1 h) inhibits purified SIRT2 enzymatic activity in vitro with an EC50 of 2 μM. Nicotinamide (0-64 mM) inhibits HBV replication in HepAD38 and HepG2.2.15 cells. Nicotinamide (10 mM, on day 13) promotes pancreatic cell differentiation from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) through CK1 and ROCK inhibition.
