This study revealed that P7C3 inhibited astrocytic senescence via increased Nrf2/Sirt3-mediated mitophagy and suppression of mitoROS, which further protected against DA neuronal loss. These observations provide a prospective theoretical basis for P7C3 in the treatment of age-associated neurodegenerative diseases, such as PD.
