Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Altered iron metabolism and transferrin expression were associated with neurodegenerations including age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Carriers of transferrin C2 allele alone or in combination with the hemochromatosis C282Y variant may have increased...
