NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) has one of the longest research histories of any molecule in the library, dating to early studies of cellular metabolism.
An early metabolic cofactor
NAD+ was first identified as a small-molecule cofactor required for fermentation and redox reactions — a role that placed it at the center of how cells move electrons and generate energy. That redox cycling remains foundational; see NAD+ in cellular research.
A renewed research focus
Later work connected NAD+ to sirtuins and DNA-repair enzymes, renewing interest in the coenzyme within aging- and stress-response research. Those broader pathways are covered in NAD+ research applications.
