BRENNER LAB

After 11 years at the University of Iowa, we're pleased to announce that we have relocated to City of Hope National Medical Center in Duarte, California to establish a new Department of Diabetes & Cancer Metabolism. Our research into how the NAD system is disturbed in conditions of metabolic stress and cancer is expanding... Our approach to NAD metabolism was initially based on enzyme characterization and gene discovery, particularly of the eukaryotic nicotinamide riboside (NR) kinase pathway to NAD, and identification of NR and nicotinic acid riboside as NAD precursors. Since then, we developed quantitative targeted NAD metabolomic technologies to identify and characterize conditions of metabolic stress that disturb the NAD system.
