Mastroberardino PG, Hoffman EK, Horowitz MP, Betarbet R, Taylor G, Cheng D, Na HM, Gutekunst CA, Gearing M, Trojanowski JQ, Anderson M, Chu CT, Peng J, Greenamyre JT: A novel transferrin/TfR2-mediated mitochondrial iron transport system is disrupted in Parkinson's disease. Neurobiol Dis. 2009 Jun;34(3):417-31. Epub 2009 Feb 26.
Here, we report a novel transferrin/transferrin receptor 2 (Tf/TfR2)-mediated iron transport pathway in mitochondria of SN dopamine neurons. In the rotenone model of PD, Tf accumulates in dopamine neurons, with much of it accumulating in the mitochondria. |
