FK-866 has been shown to induce apoptosis by non-competitive, and specific inhibition of nicotamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT). NAMPT is a key regulatory enzyme that mediates NAD+ biosynthesis within cells. Mechanistic studies show that this compou

Note
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
