Abstract
High adipose expression of NNMT, an enzyme that converts nicotinamide to 1-methyl-nicotinamide, correlates with adiposity. Though murine NNMT knockdown in fat and liver prevents weight gain on high-fat diet, Hong et al. (2015) now show that high hepatic expression of NNMT improves lipid parameters via SIRT1 stabilization.Entities:
