In this study, I try to elucidate the role of CD38 NAD consuming enzyme and NAD+ metabolism during aging using CD38 knockout mice and metabolomics analysis. I facilitate the metabolomics approach to reveal the metabolic reprogramming in immune cells during muscle regeneration in aged CD38 KO mice.
Clinical importance of inhibition of CD38 may serve as best therapeutic tool for patients suffering from muscle wasting disorder and age-related muscle disorders. Metabolic reprogramming in immune cells or muscle stem cells could open a new field to boost the regenerative process.
