Advances in inherited and clinical research of pantothenate kinase⁃associated neurodegeneration

Pantothenate kinase ⁃ associated neurodegeneration (PKAN) is a major form of neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation or NBIA (formerly called Hallervorden ⁃ Spatz syndrome). NBIA is caused by altered neuronal mitochondrial lipid metabolism caused by PANK2 mutations disrupting PANK2 protein le...
