Buck Institute researchers reveal mechanism linking NAD+ to fertility problems
A woman’s fertility normally decreases by her late 30s with reproductive function eventually ceasing at menopause. It is known that a small molecule called nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) plays a critical role in this decline, and scientists at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging have now revealed how this happens, identifying potential new approaches to enhance reproductive longevity.
Longevity.Technology: NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide), which is present in all cells, plays a pivotal role in myriad biological processes, including the regulation of fertility and reproductive longevity.
