“ Nicotinamide inhibits poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase and reduces nitric oxide accumulation in the NOD pancreas and protect beta cells against radical-induced necrosis.”
“ NA dose- and time-dependently inhibited and delayed IL-1 β-induced islet NO production.”
“Therefore, we studied whether NA prevented IL-1 β-induced islet NO production, measured as nitrite release from isolated rat islets, and, if so, whether this action was associated with prevention of IL-1 β-mediated inhibition of insulin release.”
“These results suggest a novel mechanism for NA-mediated protection of IL-1–induced P-cell damage via an inhibitory effect of NA on the formation of NO.”

“Additionally, nicotinamide significantly attenuated phosphorylation of nuclear factor-&kgr;B's inhibitory protein, nuclear factor-&kgr;B translocation and binding activity, and the synthesis of inducible nitric oxide in the ischemic brain (p < .05, respectively).”

“Results:It was shown that at non-cytotoxic concentrations, NA inhibits the production of a variety of pro-inflammatory agents, such as tumor necrosis factor α, interleukin 6, NO , PGE2, and the generation of ROS.”

“ NA potentiates the effect of 131I by increasing eNOS, which would in turn stimulate NO production, increasing thyroid blood flow and tissue damage via organic peroxides.”

“We have previously demonstrated that this regulatory phenomenon is partly modulated by nitric oxide which exerts a dual effect: facilitation or inhibition of the nicotinic activation.”
