Direct NAD(+) repletion in neurons either before or after OGD markedly reduced cell death and OGD-induced accumulation of DNA damage (AP sites, single and double strand breaks) in a concentration- and time-dependent manner.

In vitro ischemic injury was induced in rat primary neuronal cultures by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) for 1 to 2 hours.
NAD(+) was replenished by adding NAD(+) directly to the culture medium before or after OGD.
Cell viability, oxidative DNA damage, and DNA base-excision repair (BER) activity were measured quantitatively up to 72 hours after OGD with or without NAD(+) repletion.
