  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Metal Ions in Neurological Systems

Abstract

A short review of the role of cysteine and iron in the progression of Parkinson’s disease. The complex chemistry of iron and cysteine and its interactions are discussed and put into context of their probable role in oxidative stress during neurodegeneration.
