Virtual screening, identification and experimental testing of novel inhibitors of PBEF1/Visfatin/NMPRTase for glioma therapy

BACKGROUND: Pre-B-cell colony enhancing factor 1 gene (PBEF1) encodes nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NMPRTase), which catalyses the rate limiting step in the salvage pathway of NAD(+ )metabolism in mammalian cells. PBEF1 transcript and protein levels have been shown to be elevated in gliobl...
