“…Supposing a possible crosstalk between different metal imbalance disorders, genes of the copper and iron metabolism pathways and those implicated in other hepatic and/or neurological disorders have been studied. Genetic association studies involving polymorphisms of COMMD1 (Lovicu et al 2006;de Bie et al 2007b;Gupta et al 2010), ATOX1 (Lee et al 2011), APOE , MTHFR (Gromadzka et al 2011), DBH (Roy et al 2019), BDNF, and DRD2 genes ) have been undertaken. However, findings of one study are either not replicated in other cohorts or remain to be tested in larger data sets.…”
