Abstract

Rat hepatocytes cultured from 24h lose 60% of their NAD content. By using the differential response to inhibitors of the two major enzymes that catabolize NAD in mammalian cells, it is shown that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase is responsible for the loss of NAD. The relevance of this observation to the use of cultured hepatocytes for the study of DNA repair induced by carcinogens is discussed.
