简要总结
The primary aim of this study is to investigate the effects of exogenously administered nicotinamide riboside (NR) on brain NAD+/NADH ratio and bioenergetics functions in healthy individuals using phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P MRS) imaging.
The secondary aims are to investigate the change in brain PCr/ATP and creatine kinase enzyme rate after NR use. In addition, NAD+/NADH ratio, PCr/ATP and CK enzyme rate will be measured in the calf muscle, as secondary outcome measures.

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline to the End of Treatment in Brain NAD+/NADH Ratio
时间窗: Baseline and after 15 days of supplement use
Change from baseline to the end of treatment in brain NAD+/NADH ratio as measured by in vivo 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy The NAD+/NADH ratio is calculated by first quantifying NAD+ and NADH separately in the data and then obtaining a simple ratio. There is a normative NAD+/NADH ratio range in healthy brain and deviations from this level in either direction can be a sign of pathology.
次要结局
- Change From Baseline to the End of Treatment in Brain Phosphocreatine (PCr) to Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) Ratio (PCr/ATP)(Baseline and after 15 days of supplement use)
- Change From Baseline to the End of Treatment in Brain Creatine Kinase (CK) Enzyme Rate(Baseline and after 15 days of supplement use)
- Change From Baseline to the End of Treatment in Muscle Phosphocreatine (PCr) to Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) Ratio (PCr/ATP)(Baseline and after 15 days of supplement use)
- Change From Baseline to the End of Treatment in Muscle Creatine Kinase (CK) Enzyme Rate(Baseline and after 15 days of supplement use)
- Change From Baseline to the End of Treatment in Muscle NAD+/NADH Ratio(Baseline and after 15 days of supplement use)
