NMN and mycoplasma pneumonia

 

Mycoplasma is a microorganism that is on a tiny scale between bacteria and viruses and widely exists in nature, and Mycoplasma pneumoniae is one of them.

After Mycoplasma pneumoniae infects the human body, it causes a series of pathological changes, mainly manifested as an inflammatory reaction in the interstitial tissue of the lungs, which is called mycoplasma pneumonia.

The inflammatory response, lung tissue damage, and increased mucus secretion caused by mycoplasma infection will have a negative impact on lung function and structure. Therefore, it is particularly important to seek effective treatments to protect lung health.

Recent studies have shown that NMN, as a potential substance with anti-aging and anti-inflammatory effects, has a positive impact on the maintenance of lung health. 

Several research papers have affirmed the role of NMN in promoting lung organ health

1. NMN can improve the aging of alveolar epithelial cells

2. NMN improves MT in acute lung injury by inducing mitotic nucleoprotein imbalance and activating UPR

3. NMN improves silica-induced lung injury in mice through the Nrf2-regulated glutathione metabolism pathway

4. High-dose NMN promotes ferroptosis to inhibit the growth of lung adenocarcinoma through the NAM-mediated SIRT1-AMPK-ACC pathway.

5. NMN can reduce LPS-induced acute lung injury and has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects

6. Evaluate the effects of NMN supplementation on lung inflammation in male mice sub-chronically exposed to environmental particulate matter

Research shows that NMN has anti-inflammatory effects and can reduce inflammatory responses and symptoms of inflammation-related diseases.

Secondly, NMN supplementation can improve mitochondrial function and energy metabolism, thereby helping to support the normal function and repair processes of lung cells.

NMN is a health product and dietary supplement that does not have the effect of directly treating mycoplasma pneumonia and cannot have a specific therapeutic effect on the disease itself.

Nonetheless, NMN's adjuvant effects can boost immunity and improve lung health, helping the body better cope with and recover from mycoplasma pneumonia infection.
