ABSTRACT
Natural Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) precursors have attracted much attention due to their positive effects in promoting ovarian health. However, their target tissue, synthesis efficiency, advantages, and disadvantages are still unclear. This review summarizes the distribution of NAD+ at the tissue, cellular and subcellular levels, discusses its biosynthetic pathways and the latest findings in ovary, include (1) NAD+ plays distinct roles both intracellularly and extracellularly, adapting its distribution in response to requirements. (2) Different precursors differs in target tissues, synthetic efficiency, biological utilization, and adverse effects. Importantly tryptophan is primarily utilized in the liver and kidneys, posing metabolic risks in excess; nicotinamide (NAM) is indispensable for maintaining NAD+ levels; nicotinic acid (NA) constructs a crucial bridge between intestinal microbiota and the host with diverse functions; nicotinamide riboside (NR) and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) increase NAD+ systemically and can be influenced by delivery route, tissue specificity, and transport efficiency. (3) The biosynthetic pathways of NAD+ are intricately intertwined. They provide multiple sources and techniques for NAD+ synthesis, thereby reducing the dependence on a single molecule to maintain cellular NAD+ levels. However, an excess of a specific precursor potentially influencing other pathways. In addition, Protein expression analysis suggest that ovarian tissues may preferentially utilize NAM and NMN. These findings summarize the specific roles and potential of NAD+ precursors in enhancing ovarian health. Future research should delve into the molecular mechanisms and intervention strategies of different precursors, aiming to achieve personalized prevention or treatment of ovarian diseases, and reveal their clinical application value.
