Abstract
Heart failure (HF) with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction is a growing global concern. This study evaluated myocardial oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD<sup>+</sup>) levels in human systolic and diastolic HF and in a murine model of HF with preserved ejection fraction, exploring NAD<sup>+</sup> repletion as therapy. We quantified myocardial NAD<sup>+</sup> and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase levels, assessing restoration with nicotinamide riboside (NR). Findings show significant NAD<sup>+</sup> and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase depletion in human diastolic HF myocardium, but NR successfully restored NAD<sup>+</sup> levels. In murine HF with preserved ejection fraction, NR as preventive and therapeutic intervention improved metabolic and antioxidant profiles. This study underscores NAD<sup>+</sup> repletion's potential in diastolic HF management.
