Copper toxicity and mental diseases
Inflammation and damage to nerve cells in brain tissue Iowa State University researchers have described with single-molecule precision how copper ions cause prion proteins to misfold and seed the misfolding and clumping of nearby prion proteins. The researchers also found the copper-induced misfolding and clumping is associated with inflammation and damage to nerve cells inContinue reading “Copper toxicity and mental diseases”
Dopamine pathways and Parkinson
Dopamine pathways is to Parkinson and Serotonin pathway is to Alzheimer’s Dopaminergic pathways, sometimes called dopaminergic projections, are neural pathways in the brain that transmit the neurotransmitter dopamine from one region of the brain to another.[1][2] The neurons of the dopaminergic pathways have axons that run the entire length of the pathway. The neurons’ somataContinue reading “Dopamine pathways and Parkinson”
Copper Deficiency May Underlie Osteoporosis, Anemia and Neurodegenerative Disorders
Despite their obviously different appearances, osteoporosis, anemia, neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular disease, and impaired cellular immunity may all be manifestations of chronic copper deficiency, an often-overlooked nutritional problem that is more common than many doctors realize. Copper plays a key role in myelination of neurons, neutrophil activation, collagen synthesis, hemoglobin formation, and endogenous antioxidant synthesis. “ItContinue reading “Copper Deficiency May Underlie Osteoporosis, Anemia and Neurodegenerative Disorders”
