Objectives
To investigate how NR influences the migration of macrophages and the underlying mechanisms behind this effect.
Journal

Key Outcomes
Ex Vivo:
- NR treatment increased levels of NAD+ and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), a key regulator of inflammatory and immune responses, in monocytes from healthy subjects.
In Vivo:
- NR supplementation increased PGE2 levels in human serum.

Study Design
Ex Vivo:
Monocytes were extracted from young, healthy subjects and then treated with NR
In Vivo:
