    Summary
    Two enzymatic activities affecting extracellular NAD were detected on the plasma membrane, one hydrolyzing the pyrophosphoric bond and yielding nicotinamide mononucleotide (nucleotide pyrophosphatase)
    1 context sentence
    Summary · context
    The fate of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), AMP, and ADP-ribose supplied to intact human skin fibroblasts was monitored, and the concentrations of intra- and extracellular pyridine and purine compounds were determined by HPLC analysis.

  3. 03LabIn vitro (cells)Mechanism

    In human skin fibroblasts incubated with NAD, extracellular AMP was absent because it was completely catabolized to hypoxanthine.

    In plain wordsIn cells incubated with NAD, no extracellular AMP remained because it was broken down to hypoxanthine.

    Summary
    No AMP or ADP-ribose was found in the extracellular medium of cells incubated with NAD, the former being completely catabolized to hypoxanthine and the latter degraded to adenine and hypoxanthine.
