Ulcerative Colitis Chronic Mild
Conditions
Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) and placebo in patients with mild ulcerative colitis (UC). The main question it aims to answer is Whether NMN can alleviate the intestinal pathology of UC patients, so as to play a role in UC treatment or adjuvant therapy. Participants will be randomized into two groups, an NMN group or a placebo group. Patients in the NMN group were treated with NMN intervention for 8 weeks. The placebo group received a placebo intervention for 8 weeks.
Interventions
Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), a bioactive substance found in a variety of foods, is a precursor for the synthesis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). NAD+ plays a crucial role in a variety of biological processes including cell death, senescence, gene expression, neuroinflammation, and DNA repair.
The placebo mimicked the appearance and properties of nicotinamide mononucleotide(NMN) enteric-coated capsules. The specifications, usage and dosage of placebo were the same as those of NMN.
