Nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase (NAMPT) is required to maintain the NAD⁺ pool, among which extracellular (e) NAMPT is associated with inflammation, mainly mediated by macrophages. However, the role of (e) NAMPT in inflammatory macrophages in ulcerative colitis is insufficiently understood. Here our analyses of single-cell RNA-seq data revealed that the levels of NAMPT and CYBB/NOX2 in macrophages were elevated in patients with colitis and in mouse models of acute and chronic colitis. These findings indicate the clinical significance of NAMPT and CYBB in colitis. Further, we found that eNAMPT directly binds the extracellular domains of CYBB and TLR4 in activated NLRP3 inflammasomes. Moreover, we developed a recombinant 12-residue TK peptide designated colon-targeted (CT)-conjugated multifunctional NAMPT (rCT-NAMPT), comprising CT as the colon-targeting moiety, which harbors the minimal essential residues required for CYBB/TLR4 binding. rCT-NAMPT effectively suppressed the severity of disease in DSS-induced acute and chronic colitis models through targeting the colon and inhibiting the interaction of NAMPT with CYBB or TLR4. Together, our data show that rCT-NAMPT may serve as an effective novel candidate therapeutic for colitis by modulating the NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated immune signaling system.
