The NAD(+) salvage pathway modulates cancer cell viability via p73. Cell Death Differ 2015; 23:669-80.

Abstract
The involvement of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) salvage pathway in cancer cell survival is poorly understood. Here we show that the NAD(+) salvage pathway modulates cancer cell survival through the rarely mutated tumour suppressor p73. Our data show that pharmacological inhibition or knockdown of nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), a rate-limiting enzyme in the NAD(+) salvage pathway, enhances autophagy and decreases survival of cancer cells in a p53-independent manner. Such NAMPT inhibition stabilizes p73 independently of p53 through increased acetylation and decreased ubiquitination, resulting in enhanced autophagy and cell death. These effects of NAMPT inhibition can be effectively reversed using nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), the enzymatic product of NAMPT. Similarly, knockdown of p73 also decreases NAMPT inhibition-induced autophagy and cell death, whereas overexpression of p73 alone enhances these effects. We show that the breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468) harbour significantly higher levels of NAMPT and lower levels of p73 than does the normal cell line (MCF-10A), and that NAMPT inhibition is cytotoxic exclusively to the cancer cells. Furthermore, data from 176 breast cancer patients demonstrate that higher levels of NAMPT and lower levels of p73 correlate with poorer patient survival, and that high-grade tumours have significantly higher NAMPT/p73 mRNA ratios. Therefore, the inverse relationship between NAMPT and p73 demonstrable in vitro is also reflected from the clinical data. Taken together, our studies reveal a new NAMPT-p73 nexus that likely has important implications for cancer diagnosis, prognosis and treatment.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is commonly believed to be one of the major players in mechanisms of brain injury. For several decades, pathologic mitochondrial calcium overload and associated opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore were considered a detrimental factor causing mitochondrial damage and bioenergetics failure. Mitochondrial and cellular bioenergetic metabolism depends on the enzymatic reactions that require NAD(+) or its reduced form NADH as cofactors. Recently, it was shown that NAD(+) also has an important function as a substrate for several NAD(+) glycohydrolases whose overactivation can contribute to cell death mechanisms. Furthermore, downstream metabolites of NAD(+) catabolism can also adversely affect cell viability. In contrast to the negative effects of NAD(+)-catabolizing enzymes, enzymes that constitute the NAD(+) biosynthesis pathway possess neuroprotective properties. In the first part of this review, we discuss the role of MPT in acute brain injury and its role in mitochondrial NAD(+) metabolism. Next, we focus on individual NAD(+) glycohydrolases, both cytosolic and mitochondrial, and their role in NAD(+) catabolism and brain damage. Finally, we discuss the potential effects of downstream products of NAD(+) degradation and associated enzymes as well as the role of NAD(+) resynthesis enzymes as potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Cyclic ADP-ribose and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate are ubiquitous calcium-mobilizing messengers produced by the same family of multifunctional enzymes, the ADP-ribosyl cyclases. Not all ADP-ribosyl cyclases have been identified, and how production of different messengers is achieved is incompletely understood. Here, we report the cloning and characterization of a novel ADP-ribosyl cyclase (SpARC4) from the sea urchin, a key model organism for the study of calcium-signaling pathways. Like several other members of the ADP-ribosyl cyclase superfamily, SpARC4 is a glycoprotein targeted to the plasma membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor. However, unlike most other members, SpARC4 shows a remarkable preference for producing cyclic ADP-ribose over nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate. Mutation of a single residue (tyrosine 142) within a noncanonical active site reversed this striking preference. Our data highlight further diversification of this unusual enzyme family, provide mechanistic insight into multifunctionality, and suggest that different ADP-ribosyl cyclases are fine-tuned to produce specific calcium-mobilizing messengers.

Abstract
NAD-glycohydrolases (NADases) are ubiquitous enzymes that possess NAD glycohydrolase, ADPR cyclase or cADPR hydrolase activity. All these activities are attributed to the NADase-catalyzed cleavage of C-N glycosyl bond. AA-NADase purified from the venom of Agkistrodon acutus is different from the known NADases, for it consists of two chains linked with disulfide-bond(s) and contains one Cu(2+) ion. Here, we show that AA-NADase is not only able to cleave the C-N glycosyl bond of NAD to produce ADPR and nicotinamide, but also able to cleave the phosphoanhydride linkages of ATP, ADP and AMP-PNP to yield AMP. AA-NADase selectively cleaves the P-O-P bond of ATP, ADP and AMP-PNP without the cleavage of P-O-P bond of NAD. The hydrolysis reactions of NAD, ATP and ADP catalyzed by AA-NADase are mutually competitive. ATP is the excellent substrate for AA-NADase with the highest specificity constant k(cat)/K(m) of 293+/-7mM(-1)s(-1). AA-NADase catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP to produce AMP with an intermediate ADP. AA-NADase binds with one AMP with high affinity determined by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). AMP is an efficient inhibitor against NAD. AA-NADase has so far been identified as the first unique multicatalytic enzyme with both NADase and AT(D)Pase-like activities.

Abstract
Background ADP-ribosyl cyclases are remarkable enzymes capable of catalyzing multiple reactions including the synthesis of the novel and potent intracellular calcium mobilizing messengers, cyclic ADP-ribose and NAADP. Not all ADP-ribosyl cyclases however have been characterized at the molecular level. Moreover, those that have are located predominately at the outer cell surface and thus away from their cytosolic substrates. Methodology/Principal Findings Here we report the molecular cloning of a novel expanded family of ADP-ribosyl cyclases from the sea urchin, an extensively used model organism for the study of inositol trisphosphate-independent calcium mobilization. We provide evidence that one of the isoforms (SpARC1) is a soluble protein that is targeted exclusively to the endoplasmic reticulum lumen when heterologously expressed. Catalytic activity of the recombinant protein was readily demonstrable in crude cell homogenates, even under conditions where luminal continuity was maintained. Conclusions/Significance Our data reveal a new intracellular location for ADP-ribosyl cyclases and suggest that production of calcium mobilizing messengers may be compartmentalized.

Abstract
beta-NAD(+) is as abundant as ATP in neuronal cells. beta-NAD(+) functions not only as a coenzyme but also as a substrate. beta-NAD(+)-utilizing enzymes are involved in signal transduction. We focus on ADP-ribosyl cyclase/CD38 which synthesizes cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), a universal Ca(2+) mobilizer from intracellular stores, from beta-NAD(+). cADPR acts through activation/modulation of ryanodine receptor Ca(2+) releasing Ca(2+) channels. cADPR synthesis in neuronal cells is stimulated or modulated via different pathways and various factors. Subtype-specific coupling of various neurotransmitter receptors with ADP-ribosyl cyclase confirms the involvement of the enzyme in signal transduction in neurons and glial cells. Moreover, cADPR/CD38 is critical in oxytocin release from the hypothalamic cell dendrites and nerve terminals in the posterior pituitary. Therefore, it is possible that pharmacological manipulation of intracellular cADPR levels through ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity or synthetic cADPR analogues may provide new therapeutic opportunities for treatment of neurodevelopmental disorders.

Abstract
It is generally accepted that the mobilisation of intracellular Ca2+ stores plays a pivotal role in the regulation of arterial smooth muscle function, paradoxically during both contraction and relaxation. However, the spatiotemporal pattern of different Ca2+ signals that elicit such responses may also contribute to the regulation of, for example, differential gene expression. These findings, among others, demonstrate the importance of discrete spatiotemporal Ca2+ signalling patterns and the mechanisms that underpin them. Of fundamental importance in this respect is the realisation that different Ca2+ storing organelles may be selected by the discrete or coordinated actions of multiple Ca2+ mobilising messengers. When considering such messengers, it is generally accepted that sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) stores may be mobilised by the ubiquitous messenger inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate. However, relatively little attention has been paid to the role of Ca2+ mobilising pyridine nucleotides in arterial smooth muscle, namely, cyclic adenosine diphosphate-ribose (cADPR) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP). This review will therefore focus on these novel mechanisms of calcium signalling and their likely therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) is a Ca2+ mobilizing second messenger found in various cell types, tissues and organisms. Receptor-mediated formation of cADPR may proceed via transmembrane shuttling of the substrate NAD and involvement of the ectoenzyme CD38, or via so far unidentified ADP-ribosyl cyclases located within the cytosol or in internal membranes. cADPR activates intracellular Ca2+ release via type 2 and 3 ryanodine receptors. The exact molecular mechanism, however, remains to be elucidated. Possibilities are the direct binding of cADPR to the ryanodine receptor or binding via a separate cADPR binding protein. In addition to Ca2+ release, cADPR also evokes Ca2+ entry. The underlying mechanism(s) may comprise activation of capacitative Ca2+ entry and/or activation of the cation channel TRPM2 in conjunction with adenosine diphosphoribose. The development of novel cADPR analogues revealed new insights into the structure-activity relationship. Substitution of either the northern ribose or both the northern and southern ribose resulted in much simpler molecules, which still retained significant biological activity.

Abstract
Cyclic ADP-ribose mobilizes intracellular Ca2+ in a variety of cells. To elucidate the nature of the interaction between the C3' substituent of cADP-ribose and the cADPR receptor, three analogues of NAD+ modified in the adenosine ribase (xyloNAD+ 3'F-xyloNAD+ and 3'F-NAD+ were chemically synthesised from D-xylose and adenine starting materials. 3'F-NAD+ was readily converted to cyclic 3'F-ADP ribose by the action of the cyclase enzyme derived from the mollusc Aplysia californica. XyloNAD+ and 3'F-xyloNAD+ were cyclised only reluctantly and in poor yield to afford unstable cyclic products. Biological evaluation of cyclic 3'F-ADP ribose for calcium release in sea urchin egg homogenate gave an EC(50) of 1.5+/-0.5 microM. This high value suggests that the ability of the C3' substituent to donate a hydrogen bond is crucial for agonism.

Abstract
The role of cyclic ADP-ribose in the amplification of subcellular and global Ca2+ signaling upon stimulation of P2Y purinergic receptors was studied in 3T3 fibroblasts. Either (1) 3T3 fibroblasts (CD38- cells), (2) 3T3 fibroblasts preloaded by incubation with extracellular cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), (3) 3T3 fibroblasts microinjected with ryanodine, or (4) 3T3 fibroblasts transfected to express the ADP-ribosyl cyclase CD38 (CD38+ cells) were used. Both preincubation with cADPR and CD38 expression resulted in comparable intracellular amounts of cyclic ADP-ribose (42.3 +/- 5.2 and 50.5 +/- 8.0 pmol/mg protein). P2Y receptor stimulation of CD38- cells yielded a small increase of intracellular Ca2+ concentration and a much higher Ca2+ signal in CD38-transfected cells, in cADPR-preloaded cells, or in cells microinjected with ryanodine. Confocal Ca2+ imaging revealed that stimulation of ryanodine receptors by cADPR or ryanodine amplified localized pacemaker Ca2+ signals with properties resembling Ca2+ quarks and triggered the propagation of such localized signals from the plasma membrane toward the internal environment, thereby initiating a global Ca2+ wave.

Abstract
Cyclic ADP-ribose, a metabolite of NAD+ evokes Ca2+ release from intracellular stores in different cells. We have determined the activity of cADPr-producing enzymes (ADP-ribosyl cyclases) in different cellular fractions prepared from isolated pancreatic acinar cells by measuring the conversion of the beta-NAD+ analogs 1,N6-etheno-NAD and nicotinamide guanine dinucleotide to the fluorescent products 1,N6-etheno-cADPr and cyclic GDP-ribose, respectively. Substrate/product analyses were carried out by reverse-phase high pressure liquid chromatography. In all subcellular fractions examined (cytosol, mitochondria, plasma, and intracellular membranes), ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity was detected except in zymogen granular membranes. Western blot analysis and immunoprecipitation experiments revealed the presence of the ADP-ribosyl cyclase CD38 in both plasma membranes and mitochondria but not in the cytosol. Hormonal stimulation of intact acinar cells for 1 min with acetylcholine (ACh), cholecystokinin (CCK), or a membrane-permeant analog of cGMP increased ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity in the cytosol by 1.8-, 1.6-, and 1.9-fold, respectively, as compared with the control but had no effect in any other fraction. Both ACh and CCK also increased accumulation of cGMP in the cells by about 2-fold. Bombesin had no significant effect on either ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity or cGMP accumulation within this short period of stimulation. We conclude that at least two types of ADP-ribosyl cyclases are present in pancreatic acinar cells: membrane-bound CD38 and a cytosolic enzyme different from CD38. Stimulation of pancreatic acinar cells with CCK or ACh results in exclusive activation of the cytosolic ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity, most likely mediated by cGMP.

Abstract
CD38 is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is expressed in many tissues throughout the body. In addition to its major NAD+-glycohydrolase activity, CD38 is also able to synthesize cyclic ADP-ribose, an endogenous calcium-regulating molecule, from NAD+. In the present study, we have compared ADP-ribosyl cyclase and NAD+-glycohydrolase activities in protein extracts of brains from developing and adult wild-type and Cd38 -/- mice. In extracts from wild-type brain, cyclase activity was detected spectrofluorimetrically, using nicotinamide-guanine dinucleotide as a substrate (GDP-ribosyl cyclase activity), as early as embryonic day 15. The level of cyclase activity was similar in the neonate brain (postnatal day 1) and then increased greatly in the adult brain. Using [14C]NAD+ as a substrate and HPLC analysis, we found that ADP-ribose is the major product formed in the brain at all developmental stages. Under the same experimental conditions, neither NAD+-glycohydrolase nor GDP-ribosyl cyclase activity could be detected in extracts of brains from developing or adult Cd38 -/- mice, demonstrating that CD38 is the predominant constitutive enzyme endowed with these activities in brain at all developmental stages. The activity measurements correlated with the level of CD38 transcripts present in the brains of developing and adult wild-type mice. Using confocal microscopy we showed, in primary cultures of hippocampal cells, that CD38 is expressed by both neurons and glial cells, and is enriched in neuronal perikarya. Intracellular NAD+-glycohydrolase activity was measured in hippocampal cell cultures, and CD38-dependent cyclase activity was higher in brain fractions enriched in intracellular membranes. Taken together, these results lead us to speculate that CD38 might have an intracellular location in neural cells in addition to its plasma membrane location, and may play an important role in intracellular cyclic ADP-ribose-mediated calcium signalling in brain tissue.

Abstract
NAD glycohydrolases are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of NAD to produce ADP-ribose and nicotinamide. Regulation of these enzymes has not been fully elucidated. We have identified a NAD-glycohydrolase activity associated with the outer surface of the plasma membrane in human lung epithelial cell line A549. This activity is negatively regulated by its substrate beta-NAD but not by alpha-NAD. Partial restoration of NADase activity after incubation of the cells with arginine or histidine, known ADP-ribose acceptors, suggests that inhibition be regulated by ADP-ribosylation. A549 do not undergo to apoptosis upon NAD treatment indicating that this effect be likely mediated by a cellular component(s) lacking in epithelial cells.

Abstract
Signaling via release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores is mediated by several systems, including the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and cADP-ribose (cADPR) pathway. We recently discovered a high capacity for cADPR synthesis in rat glomeruli and cultured mesangial cells (MC). We sought to determine whether 1) cADPR synthesis in MC is regulated by cytokines and hormones, 2) ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are expressed in MC, and 3) Ca2+ is released through RyRs in response to cADPR. We found that ADP-ribosyl cyclase, a CD38-like enzyme that catalyzes cADPR synthesis, is upregulated in MC by tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1beta, and all-trans retinoic acid (atRA). [3H]ryanodine binds to microsomal fractions from MC with high affinity in a Ca2+-dependent manner; binding is enhanced by specific RyR agonists and blocked by ruthenium red and cADPR. Western blot analysis confirmed the presence of RyR in MC. Release of 45Ca2+ from MC microsomes was stimulated by cADPR; release was blocked by ruthenium red and 8-bromo-cADPR. ADPR (non-cyclic) was without effect. In MC, TNF-alpha and atRA amplified the increment of cytoplasmic Ca2+ elicited by vasopressin. We conclude that MC possess elements of a novel ADP-ribosyl cyclase-->cADPR-->RyR-->Ca2+-release signaling pathway subject to regulation by proinflammatory cytokines and steroid superfamily hormones.

Abstract
Cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) are two Ca(2+) messengers derived from NAD and NADP, respectively. Although NAADP is a linear molecule, structurally distinct from the cyclic cADPR, it is synthesized by similar enzymes, ADP-ribosyl cyclase and its homolog, CD38. The crystal structure of the cyclase has been solved and its active site identified. These two novel nucleotides have now been shown to be involved in a wide range of cellular functions including: cell cycle regulation in Euglena, a protist; gene expression in plants; and in animal systems, from fertilization to neurotransmitter release and long-term depression in brain. A battery of pharmacological reagents have been developed, providing valuable tools for elucidating the physiological functions of these two novel Ca(2+) messengers. This article reviews these recent results and explores the implications of the existence of multiple Ca(2+) messengers and Ca(2+) stores in cells.

Abstract
Cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), an endogenous modulator of ryanodine receptor Ca(2+)-releasing channels, is found in various tissues. Cytosolic injection of cADPR induces an elevation of intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations or potentiates Ca(2+) increases. cADPR facilitates neurotransmitter or insulin release and modifies ionic currents. cADPR is synthesized by ADP-ribosyl cyclase and is metabolized by cADPR hydrolase. ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity is up-regulated by nitric oxide/cyclic GMP-dependent phosphorylation or receptor stimulation via G-proteins within membranes. These findings suggest that cADPR is a second messenger in cellular Ca(2+) signaling. However, many intriguing issues remain to be addressed before this identity is confirmed.

Abstract
Cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), a known endogenous modulator of ryanodine receptor Ca2+ releasing channels, is found in the nervous system. Injection of cADPR into neuronal cells primarily induces a transient elevation of intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), and/or secondarily potentiates [Ca2+]i increases that are the result of depolarization-induced Ca2+ influx. Acetylcholine release from cholinergic neurons is facilitated by cADPR. cADPR modifies K+ currents or elicits Ca2+-dependent inward currents. cADPR is synthesized by both membrane-bound and cytosolic forms of ADP-ribosyl cyclase in neuronal cells. cADPR hydrolase activity is weak in the membrane fraction, but high in the cytoplasm. Cytosolic ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity is upregulated by nitric oxide/cyclic GMP-dependent phosphorylation. Stimulation of muscarinic and beta-adrenergic receptors activates membrane-bound ADP-ribosyl cyclase via G proteins within membranes of neuronal tumor cells and cortical astrocytes. These findings strongly suggest that cADPR is a second messenger in Ca2+ signaling in the nervous system, although many intriguing issues remain to be addressed before this identity is confirmed.

Abstract
This Perspective by Galione and Churchill is one in a series on intracellular calcium release mechanisms. The authors review the evidence for cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose (cADPR) being a second messenger involved in regulating intracellular calcium. In addition, the physiological stimuli and responses mediated by cADPR are discussed. The Perspective is accompanied by a movie showing a calcium wave triggered by cADPR.
