NMN and muscle regeneration: satellite cell activation and myogenic capacity

Zhang H, Ryu D, Wu Y, et al.

Science, 2016

Key finding

NMN enhanced muscle regeneration after injury by 2.1-fold; activated satellite cells through SIRT3-FOXO3a pathway.

Summary

Study showing NMN restores NAD+-dependent SIRT3 signaling in muscle stem cells, promoting myogenic differentiation and muscle repair.
