Based on studies in sheep (West et al. 2013) and rat (Brigidi et al. 2019) neurons, NPAS4 transcription factor, in cooperation with its heterodimerization partners ARNT, ARNT2, and ARNTL, directly stimulates transcription of the circadian rythm-controlled gene NAMPT, encoding Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase.

The rhythmic production of NAD+ may function to fine-tune the daily cycles of energy storage and utilization and to coordinate these processes with the rest-activity cycle (Ramsay et al. 2009).
