Results of multiple sclerosis :

Result Moreover, differentiation of LINGO-1-Fc-producing NSCs into oligodendrocytes in vitro was largely diminished by an NAMPT inhibitor, indicating that LINGO-1-Fc enhances the NAMPT/NAD/Sirt2 pathway.
Mechanism/pathway Through binding to the TrkB receptor, BDNF induces NAMPT, a rate-limiting enzyme involved in the conversion of nicotinamide into NAD.
