Under glucose-deprived conditions, the knockout of IDH1 or ME1 significantly reduces the NADPH/NADP+ and GSH/oxidized GSH ratios, leading to elevated ROS levels and increased cell death in cancer cells (94)
According to the latest EASL Clinical Practice Guidelines, non-invasive scores, serum markers, liver stiffness and imaging methods should be used for ruling out rather than diagnosing advanced fibrosis in low-prevalence populations and should be preferentially employed in patients at risk of advanced liver fibrosis (63)

that is, not all cancer cells exhibit an increase in ROS or NAD + depletion upon NAMPT inhibition
