Protective Pleiotropic Effect of Flavonoids on NAD(+) Levels in Endothelial Cells Exposed to High Glucose

NAD(+) is important for oxidative metabolism by serving as an electron transporter. Hyperglycemia decreases NAD(+) levels by activation of the polyol pathway and by overactivation of poly(ADP-ribose)-polymerase (PARP). We examined the protective role of three structurally related flavonoids (rutin,...
