null (Ed.): Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD + ) is a key player in many metabolic pathways as an activated carrier of electrons. In addition to being the cofactor for redox reactions, NAD + also serves as the substrate for various enzymatic transformations such as adenylation and ADP-ribosylation. Maintaining cellular NAD + homeostasis has been suggested as an effective anti-aging strategy. Given the importance of NAD + in regulating a broad spectrum of cellular events, small molecules targeting NAD + metabolism have been pursued as therapeutic interventions for the treatment of mitochondrial disorders and age-related diseases. In this article, small molecule regulators of NAD + biosynthetic enzymes will be reviewed. The focus will be given to the discovery and development of these molecules, the mechanism of action as well as their therapeutic potentials.more » « less
