niacin and Amyloid Deposits

niacin has been researched along with Amyloid Deposits in 1 studies

Niacin: A water-soluble vitamin of the B complex occurring in various animal and plant tissues. It is required by the body for the formation of coenzymes NAD and NADP. It has PELLAGRA-curative, vasodilating, and antilipemic properties.
vitamin B3 : Any member of a group of vitamers that belong to the chemical structural class called pyridines that exhibit biological activity against vitamin B3 deficiency. Vitamin B3 deficiency causes a condition known as pellagra whose symptoms include depression, dermatitis and diarrhea. The vitamers include nicotinic acid and nicotinamide (and their ionized and salt forms).
nicotinic acid : A pyridinemonocarboxylic acid that is pyridine in which the hydrogen at position 3 is replaced by a carboxy group.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Niacin serves as a high-affinity ligand for the receptor HCAR2 (GPR109A)."1.72The niacin receptor HCAR2 modulates microglial response and limits disease progression in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.
