RESEARCH AIM: Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (Nampt) is an adipocytokine that is elevated in obesity, type 2 diabetes and increased levels are associated with inflammatory processes. Nampt serum concentrations have been suggested to follow a diurnal rhythm peaking in the afternoon in lean males. However, no data exists regarding the effects of gender and body weight. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We measured Nampt serum levels over 24 h in a cohort of healthy individuals living with either normal weight or obesity. Furthermore, effects of meals, oral glucose tolerance test and physical exercise on Nampt concentrations were evaluated. Correlation analyses to other hormonal- and lab parameters and anthropometric measurements were performed. RESULTS: Nampt showed a diurnal rhythm with increased levels at daytime and a peak in the early afternoon. This diurnal rhythm was significant for all groups but obese males. The Nampt amplitude, measured both relatively and absolutely, was significantly higher in females than in males. Meals did not influence Nampt serum levels, whereas physical exercise and an OGTT did significantly influence Nampt serum levels. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, we found gender specific differences in Nampt amplitude and coefficient variation with both being higher in females. The circadian rhythm of Nampt was independent of gender in healthy lean individuals, whereas it was disturbed in men with obesity.
