	Severe vitamin B<sub>3</sub> deficiency in the diet causes the disease [[pellagra]], characterized by [[diarrhea]], sun-sensitive [[dermatitis]] involving hyperpigmentation and thickening of the skin (see image), inflammation of the mouth and tongue, delirium, dementia, and if left untreated, death.> Common psychiatric symptoms include irritability, poor concentration, anxiety, fatigue, loss of memory, restlessness, apathy, and depression. The biochemical mechanisms for the observed deficiency-caused neurodegeneration are not well understood, but may rest on A) the requirement for [[nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide]] (NAD+) to suppress the creation of neurotoxic tryptophan metabolites; B) inhibition of mitochondrial ATP generation resulting in cell damage; C) activation of the [[poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase]] (PARP) pathway, as PARP is a nuclear enzyme involved in DNA repair, but in the absence of NAD+ can lead to cell death; D) reduced synthesis of neuro-protective [[brain-derived neurotrophic factor]] or its receptor [[tropomyosin receptor kinase B]]; or, E) changes to [[Gene expression\|genome expression]] directly due to the niacin deficiency.
