ChromaDex: Peer-Reviewed Study Shows Promising Effect of Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) in Parkinson’s

 ChromaDex Corp. (NASDAQ:CDXC) today announced promising findings from a first-of-its-kind clinical study, as reported in the peer-reviewed journal Cell Metabolism by a team of scientists led by Prof. Charalampos Tzoulis, Haukeland University Hospital and University of Bergen, in Norway. The clinical trial was part of the ChromaDex External Research Program (CERP™) and investigated the company’s proprietary Niagen® ingredient (patented nicotinamide riboside, or "NR") in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Results of the phase I clinical trial showed that NR supplementation significantly increased cerebral nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) levels, and resulted in altered cerebral energy metabolism and decreased levels of inflammatory cytokines in patients with PD. This clinical study is a milestone in NR and PD research and builds upon previous preclinical studies exploring the positive impact of NR on neurodegenerative diseases.
