Abstract

We showed that RV ameliorated both motor deficits and pathological changes in MPTP-treated mice via activation of SIRT1 and subsequent LC3 deacetylation-mediated autophagic degradation of α-synuclein. Our observations suggest that RV may be a potential prophylactic and/or therapeutic agent for PD.
