Nicotinamide riboside (NR) has been available over the counter as a nutraceutical (Niagen®, ChromaDex, Inc.) since the summer of 2013. However, classical pharmacokinetic (PK) data for NR have not been reported in humans. This study will use a recently-developed, whole blood assay for NR to assess the pharmacokinetics of NR at a maximum dose of 1000 mg twice daily, and will collect history, physical examination and laboratory data to determine the safety and tolerability of NR in eight, healthy volunteers. In addition, whole blood nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) levels will be measured at each time point, to determine whether this NR dose significantly raises whole blood NAD levels.
On Day 1, participants will have a baseline assessment, including blood pressure and heart rate, as well as baseline assessment of "safety" labs: complete blood count with white blood count differential and platelets, serum chemistry panel (sodium, potassium, chloride, glucose, blood urea nitrogen and creatinine), uric acid, creatine kinase, aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase, and lactate dehydrogenase.
Participants will receive 250 mg nicotinamide riboside (NR) by mouth daily on Days 1-2, 250 mg NR by mouth twice daily on Days 3-4, 500 mg NR twice daily by mouth on Days 5-6 and 1000 mg NR twice daily by mouth on Days 7-8.
On Day 2, a blood sample will be obtained from each participant to measure serum chemistry panel to assess for the possibility of hyperkalemia and hyperglycemia. In addition, an instant read potassium will be measured using a point-of-care device available on the University of Washington (UW) General Clinical Research Center (GCRC). If the potassium is greater than 5.5, a repeat value and an ECG will be performed and the Study Investigator. If it is greater than 6.0, the Study Investigator will evaluate the subject for admission.
On Day 9 prior to receiving their morning dose, participants will be admitted to the UW GCRC for an overnight stay.
