Abstract
⺠Recombinant AIF does not function as an antioxidant enzyme. ⺠AIF deficiency causes a reduction in mitochondrial complex I. ⺠Changes in ROS are more likely due to electron transport changes than loss of AIF. ⺠AIF deficient mice do not get Parkinson's disease despite reduced complex I. ⺠AIF has pro-survival and pro-death roles that both modulate neuronal injury.
