    Highlights • CP−/− mice and mice that received FAC had high levels of brain iron. • Brain iron accumulation exacerbated TH-positive neurons apoptosis in MPTP-treated mice. • DFO reduced the neuronal damage in MPTP-treated CP−/− mice. • Increased oxidative stress was involved in cell apoptosis exacerbated by the increased brain iron.
