Abstract
NAD glycohydrolase (NADase) is present in many organisms from bacteria to mammals. In any given organism, this enzyme is ubiquitous in many tissues. However, its precise localization and its physiological significance have not been defined. We have determined the distribution of NADase in normal human and rabbit tissues by immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry, using a polyclonal antibody raised in goats. Immunoblot analyses revealed that NADase was highly expressed in the heart, lung, stomach, and liver tissues of the rabbit. From immunohistochemical studies of NADase, high concentrations in both human and rabbit tissues were found in hepatocytes and sinusoidal lining cells, sinus histiocytes of the lymph node, spleen and thymus, glomerular capillary endothelial cells of the kidney, cardiac muscle, endothelium of blood vessels, and erythrocytes.Entities:
