Abstract excerpt
Common variants in the iron regulatory protein HFE contribute to systematically increased iron levels, yet the effects in the brain are not fully characterized. It is commonly believed that iron dysregulation is a key contributor to neurodegenerative disease due to iron's ability to catalyze reactive oxygen species production. However, whether HFE variants exacerbate or protect against neurodegeneration has been...
