Quinolinic acid impairs mitophagy promoting microglia senescence and poor healthspan in C. elegans: a mechanism of impaired aging process

Abstract Senescent microglia are a distinct microglial phenotype present in aging brain that have been implicated in the progression of aging and age-related neurodegenerative diseases. However, the specific mechanisms that trigger microglial senescence are largely unknown. Quinolinic acid (QA) is a...
