homeostasis/metabolism

increased susceptibility to dopaminergic neuron neurotoxicity ( J:212711 )

• in response to iron-induced toxicity, cultured mesencephalic dopaminergic neurons isolated from E13 mutant embryos show a significant increase in neuronal cell death relative to wild-type controls, as shown by TUNEL analysis

abnormal iron homeostasis ( J:212711 )

• in culture, mesencephalic dopaminergic neurons isolated from E13 mutant embryos display increased levels of the divalent metal transporter SLC11A2 (DMT1) relative to wild-type controls, suggesting misregulation of iron homeostasis

nervous system

increased susceptibility to dopaminergic neuron neurotoxicity ( J:212711 )

• in response to iron-induced toxicity, cultured mesencephalic dopaminergic neurons isolated from E13 mutant embryos show a significant increase in neuronal cell death relative to wild-type controls, as shown by TUNEL analysis

cellular

increased susceptibility to dopaminergic neuron neurotoxicity ( J:212711 )

• in response to iron-induced toxicity, cultured mesencephalic dopaminergic neurons isolated from E13 mutant embryos show a significant increase in neuronal cell death relative to wild-type controls, as shown by TUNEL analysis
