needed for many biological reactions including the synthesis and release of neurotransmitters. However, we think the results of this study warrant further epidemiological studies in humans, especially as it impacts on neurological function in older individuals.’ Andersen added, ‘It would also be interesting to assess the value of iron chelation as a possible therapeutic in regards to the progression of age-related neurodegeneration as a consequence of high iron intake in infants.’

Joining Andersen in the study include Deepinder Kaur, lead author on the publication as well as Subramanian Ragajolan and Shankar Chinta from the Buck Institute and Dino Dimonte at the Parkinson’s Institute in Sunnyvale, California. This work was funded as part of a collaborative center grant on the role of the environment in Parkinson’s disease funded by the National Institute of Environmental Health (NIEH).

The Buck Institute is the only freestanding institute in the United States that is devoted solely to basic research on aging and age-associated disease. The Institute is an independent nonprofit organization dedicated to extending the healthspan, the healthy years of each individual’s life. The National Institute of Aging designated the Buck a ‘Nathan Shock Center of Excellence in the Biology of Aging,’ one of just five centers in the country. Buck Institute scientists work in an innovative, interdisciplinary setting to understand the mechanisms of aging and to discover new ways of detecting, preventing and treating conditions such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, cancer and stroke. Collaborative research at the Institute is supported by new developments in genomics, proteomics and bioinformatics technlogy.
