P7C3

P7C3 exerts proneurogenic activity by protecting newborn neurons from apoptosis. Prolonged administration to aged rats impedes neuronal death and preserves cognitive capacity.1 Delays disease progression in G93A-SOD2 mutant mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.2 Blocks MPTP-mediated cell death of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra of adult mice, a model of Parkinson disease.3 Restores hippocampal neurogenesis in a mouse model of Down Syndrome.4 The mechanism of action involves activation of nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) with concomitant increase of intracellular levels of NAD.5 Active in vivo.
