Double-blind Placebo Controlled Study to Evaluate the Effect of NAD+ Boosting with Nicotinamide Riboside on Immunometabolism and Immunity in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Double-blind Placebo Controlled Study to Evaluate the Effect of NAD+ Boosting with Nicotinamide Riboside on Immunometabolism and Immunity in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) creates an imbalance in the innate immune system responsible for chronic inflammation. A study at NHLBI is looking into a Vitamin B supplement, nicotinamide riboside (NR), to see if it improves immune system function in people with SLE. People with SLE will be asked to take the supplement or placebo for 12 weeks. Healthy control subjects will be enrolled to compare baseline blood results but will not take the supplement.
