HFE genotype influences substantia nigra iron accumulation and Parkinson’s disease progression
2026-06-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4> A bstract </h4> Increased iron in the substantia nigra has been thought to be a mechanism potentially related to the etiology and/or progression of Parkinson’s disease (PD). We hypothesized that genetic variants of HFE , a major iron regulatory gene, would influence substantia nigra iron accumulation in PD. The HFE genotype was obtained from 195 subjects (102 PD and 83 Controls) who participated in the P...
