A Mitochondrial Inside-Out Iron-Calcium Signal Reveals Drug Targets for Parkinson’s Disease
2022-11-01
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Dysregulated iron or Ca 2+ homeostasis has been reported in Parkinson’s disease (PD) models. Here we discover a connection between these two metals at the mitochondria. Elevation of iron levels causes inward mitochondrial Ca 2+ overflow, through an interaction of Fe 2+ with Mitochondrial Calcium Uniporter. In PD neurons, iron accumulation-triggered Ca 2+ influx across the mitochondrial surfac...
