---|---|
a retroviral gene delivery system is used to generate human cells stably overexpressing Nampt. Introducing the Nampt gene into aging human SMCs delays senescence and substantially lengthened cell lifespan, together with enhanced resistance to oxidative stress | Homo sapiens |
in pQCXIP-IHRES-PURO for retroviral delivery and stable overexpression in Phoenix-amphotropic retrovirus packaging cell line | Homo sapiens |
Inhibitors | Comment | Organism | Structure |
---|---|---|---|
FK866 | Nampt antagonist, 10 nM, reduction of Nampt activity in SMCs to 22 +/-2% of baseline activity accompanied with shortened senescent-free survival; reducing Nampt activity with the antagonist FK866 induces premature senescence in smooth muscle cells | Homo sapiens |

additional information | Homo sapiens | rate-limiting enzyme for NAD+ salvage from nicotinamide. Replicative senescence of smooth muscle cells is preceded by a marked decline in the expression and activity of Nampt. Nampt is a longevity protein that can add stress-resistant life to human smooth muscle cells by optimizing SIRT1-mediated p53 degradation | ? | - |
