To determine the effects of restoring cellular NAD+ levels on neurovascular gene expression profiles, 24-month-old C57BL/6 mice were treated with nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), a key NAD+ intermediate, for 2 weeks.
Neurovascular gene expression signatures in NMN-treated aged mice were compared with those in untreated young and aged control mice.
