Why is it important?
This process was accelerated by the discovery of genetic alterations underlying disease entities, including neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA).NBIA has several subtypes, with the first being the disease described by Hallervorden and Spatz, and recently renamed to pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN).
