Boosting NAD+ levels with nicotinamide supplementation in concert with CAR T immunotherapy effectively eliminates tumors in mice.

Cancer

T lymphocytes that infiltrate and suppress tumors progressively lose their ability to function, but nicotinamide riboside (NR) supplementation enhances T cell mitochondrial fitness to sustain the antitumor response.
