説明
Niacin is an additive to food on the basis of its nutrient supplement qualities as a vitamin (as an enzyme co-factor). This water-soluble vitamin of the B complex occurs in various animal and plant tissues. It is required by the body for the formation of coenzymes NAD and NADP. A deficiency of niacin results in the disease, pellagra.
化学的特性
NIACIN is sometimes referred to as nicotinic acid or nicotinamide and earlier called the P-P factor, antipellagra factor, antiblacktongue factor, and vitamin B4, niacin is available in several forms (niacin, niacinamide, niacinamide ascorbate, etc.) for use as a nutrient and dietary supplement. Niacin is frequently identified with the B complex vitamin grouping. Early in the research on niacin, a nutritional niacin deficiency was identified as the cause of pellagra in humans, blacktongue in dogs, and certain forms of dermatosis in humans. Niacin deficiency is also associated with perosis in chickens as well as poor feathering of the birds.
物理的性質
Nicotinic acid and nicotinamide are colorless crystalline substances. Each is insol uble or only sparingly soluble in organic solvents. Nicotinic acid is slightly soluble
in water and ethanol; nicotinamide is very soluble in water and moderately soluble
in ethanol
Nicotinic acid is amphoteric and forms salts with acids as well as bases. Its car boxyl group can form esters and anhydrides and can be reduced. Both nicotinic acid
and nicotinamide are very stable in dry form, but in solution nicotinamide is hydro lyzed by acids and bases to yield nicotinic ac
The coenzyme forms of niacin are the pyridine nucleotides, NAD(H) and
NADP(H). In each of these compounds, the electron-withdrawing effect of the N-1
atom and the amide group of the oxidized pyridine nucleus enables the pyridine C-4
atom to react with many nucleophilic agents (e.g., sulfite, cyanide, and hydride
ions). It is the reaction with hydride ions (H?) that is the basis of the enzymatic
hydrogen transfer by the pyridine nucleotides; the reaction involves the transfer of
two electrons in a single step
Several substituted pyridines are antagonists of niacin in biological systems:
pyridine-3-sulfonic acid, 3-acetylpyridine, isonicotinic acid hydrazine, 17 and
6-aminonicotinamide
来歴
Huber first synthesized nicotinic acid in 1867. In 1914, Funk isolated nicotinic acid from rice polishings. Goldberger, in 1915, demonstrated that pellagra is a nutritional deficiency. In 1917, Chittenden and Underhill demonstrated that canine blacktongue is similar to pellagra. In 1935, Warburg and Christian showed that niacinamide is essential in hydrogen transport as diphosphopyridine nucleotide (DPN). In the following year, Euler et al. isolated DPN and determined its structure. In 1937, Elvhehjem et al. cured blacktongue by administration of niacinamide derived from liver. In the same year, Fouts et al. cured pellagra with niacinamide. In 1947, Handley and Bond established conversion of tryptophan to niacin by animal tissues.
主な応用
Nicotinic acid is a precursor of the coenzymes NAD and NADP. Widely distributed in nature; appreciable amounts are found in liver , fish, yeast and cereal grains. It is a water-soluble b-complex vitamin that is necessary for the growth and health of tissues. Dietary deficiency is associated with pellagra. It was functions as a nutrient and dietary supplement that prevents pellagra. The term "niacin" has also been applied. The term “niacin” has also been applied to nicotinamide or to other derivatives exhibiting the biological activity of nicotinic acid.
使用
Nicotinic acid is also known as niacin and vitamin B3. It is a water-soluble conditioning agent that improves rough, dry, or flaky skin, helping smooth the skin and improve its suppleness. niacin enhances the appearance and feel of hair, by increasing body, suppleness, or sheen, or by improving the texture of hair that has been damaged physically or by chemical treatment. When used in the formulation of skin care products, niacinamide and niacin enhance the appearance of dry or damaged skin by reducing flaking and restoring suppleness.
定義
ChEBI: Nicotinic acid is a pyridinemonocarboxylic acid that is pyridine in which the hydrogen at position 3 is replaced by a carboxy group. It has a role as an antidote, an antilipemic drug, a vasodilator agent, a metabolite, an EC 3.5.1.19 (nicotinamidase) inhibitor, an Escherichia coli metabolite, a mouse metabolite, a human urinary metabolite and a plant metabolite. It is a vitamin B3, a pyridinemonocarboxylic acid and a pyridine alkaloid. It is a conjugate acid of a nicotinate.
一般的な説明
Nicotinic acid, 3-pyridinecarboxylicacid (Niacin), is effective in the treatment of all types ofhyperlipoproteinemia except type I, at doses above thosegiven as a vitamin supplement. The drug reduces VLDLsynthesis and, subsequently, its plasma products, IDL andLDL. Plasma triglyceride levels are reduced because of thedecreased VLDL production. Cholesterol levels are lowered,in turn, because of the decreased rate of LDL formationfrom VLDL. Although niacin is the drug of choicefor type II hyperlipoproteinemias, its use is limited becauseof the vasodilating side effects. Flushing occurs inpractically all patients but generally subsides when thedrug is discontinued.
The hypolipidemic effects of niacin may be caused byits ability to inhibit lipolysis (i.e., prevent the release ofFFAs and glycerol from fatty tissues). Therefore, there is areduced reserve of FFA in the liver and diminution oflipoprotein biosynthesis, which reduces the production ofVLDL. The decreased formation of lipoproteins leads to apool of unused cholesterol normally incorporated inVLDL. This excess cholesterol is then excreted throughthe biliary tract.

反応プロフィール
Nicotinic acid is incompatible with strong oxidizers. Nicotinic acid is also incompatible with sodium nitrite.
火災危険
Flash point data for Nicotinic acid are not available; however, Nicotinic acid is probably combustible.
生物活性
Nicotinic acid can be converted to nicotinamide in the animal body and, in this form, is found as a component of two oxidation-reduction coenzymes, NAD and NADP.The nicotinamide portion of the coenzyme transfers hydrogens by alternating between an oxidized quaternary nitrogen and a reduced tertiary nitrogen. Enzymes that contain NAD or NADP are usually called dehydrogenases. They participate in many biochemical reactions of lipid, carbohydrate, and protein metabolism. An example of an NAD-requiring system is lactic dehydrogenase which catalyzes the conversion of lactic acid to pyruvic acid.
作用機序
Nicotinic acid decreases formation and secretion of
VLDL by the liver.This action
appears secondary to its ability to inhibit fatty acid
mobilization from adipose tissue. Circulating free fatty
acids provide the main source of fatty acids for hepatic triglyceride synthesis, and lowering triglyceride synthesis
lowers VLDL formation and secretion by the liver.
Since plasma VLDL is the source of LDL, lowering
VLDL can ultimately lower LDL. In addition, nicotinic
acid shifts LDL particles to larger (more buoyant) sizes.
The larger LDL particles are thought to be less atherogenic.
Nicotinic acid can also significantly increase
plasma HDL levels; the mechanism is unknown.
薬物動態学
Nicotinic acid is readily absorbed. Peripheral vasodilation is seen within 20 minutes, and peak plasma concentrations occur within 45
minutes. The half-life of the compound is approximately one hour, thus necessitating frequent dosing or an extended-release
formulation. Extended release tablets produce peripheral vasodilation within 1 hour, reach peak plasma concentrations within 4 to 5
hours, and have a duration of 8 to 10 hours.
Dosing of nicotinic acid should be titrated to minimize adverse effects. An initial dose of 50 to 100 mg t.i.d. often is used with immediaterelease tablets. The dose then is gradually increased by 50 to 100 mg every 3 to 14 days, up to a maximum of 6 g/day, as tolerated.
Therapeutic monitoring to assess efficacy and prevent toxicity is essential until a stable and effective dose is reached. Similar dosing
escalations are available for extended-release products, with doses normally starting at 500 mg once daily at bedtime..
臨床応用
Nicotinic acid has been esterified to prolong itshypolipidemic effect. Pentaerythritol tetranicotinate hasbeen more effective experimentally than niacin in reducingcholesterol levels in rabbits. Sorbitol and myo-inositolhexanicotinate polyesters have been used in the treatment ofpatients with atherosclerosis obliterans.The usual maintenance dose of niacin is 3 to 6 g/daygiven in three divided doses. The drug is usually given atmealtimes to reduce the gastric irritation that often accompanieslarge doses.
副作用
Compliance with nicotinic acid therapy can be poor
because the drug can produce an intense cutaneous
flush. This can be reduced by beginning the drug in
stepped doses of 250 mg twice daily and increasing the
dose monthly by 500 to 1000 mg per day to a maximum
of 3000 mg per day.Taking nicotinic acid on a full stomach
(end of meal) and taking aspirin before dosage can
reduce the severity of flushing. Time-release forms of
nicotinic acid may also decrease cutaneous flushing.
Nicotinic acid can cause gastrointestinal (GI) distress，liver dysfunction (especially at high doses), decreased
glucose tolerance, hyperglycemia, and hyperuricemia.
Thus, it is contraindicated in patients with hepatic dysfunction,
peptic ulcer, hyperuricemia, or diabetes mellitus.
A paradox associated with nicotinic acid is that it is
the most widely available hypolipidemic drug (it is sold
over the counter), yet its use requires the closest management
by the physician.

代謝
Nicotinic acid is a B-complex vitamin that is converted to nicotinamide, NAD+
, and NADP+
.The latter two compounds are coenzymes and
are required for oxidation/reduction reactions in a variety of biochemical pathways. Additionally, nicotinic acid is metabolized to a
number of inactive compounds, including nicotinuric acid and N-methylated derivatives. Normal biochemical regulation and feedback
prevent large doses of nicotinic acid from producing excess quantities of NAD+
and NADP+
.Thus, small doses of nicotinic acid, such as
those used for dietary supplementation, will be primarily excreted as metabolites, whereas large doses, such as those used for the
treatment of hyperlipoproteinemia, will be primarily excreted unchanged by the kidney.
純化方法
Crystallise the acid from *benzene, EtOH or H2O. It sublimes without decomposition. [McElvain Org Synth Coll Vol I 385 1941, Beilstein 22 III/IV 439, 22/2 V 57.]
