Amide de l'acide nicotinique [...] qui est une vitamine dérivée de la pyridine, importante par ses nucléotides, qui sont les coenzymes de nombreuses déshydrogénases : NAD (nicotinamide adénine dinucléotide) et NADP (nicotinamide adénine dinucléotide phosphate). 11, record 1, French, - nicotinamide
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Le mode d'action du nicotinamide passe par l'inhibition de la poly (ADP-ribose) synthétase, l'augmentation de la disponibilité en NAD et par un effet «scavenger». Cet agent inhibe l'expression insulaire des antigènes du complexe majeur d'histocompatibilité de classe II induite par l'interféron et le «Tumor Necrosis Factor». Il semble surtout protéger la cellule B vis-à-vis de l'action des macrophages (radicaux libres, monokines), mais semble peu actif contre les effets cytotoxiques des lymphocytes T (perforine). 12, record 1, French, - nicotinamide
