Metal ions are indispensable for living organisms. However, the roles of metal ions in
humans is complex, and remains poorly understood. Imbalances in metal ion levels, due to
genetic or environmental sources, are associated with a number of significant health issues.
However, in clinical medicine, the role of metal ions and metal-based drugs is notable in
three major areas: as metal-related diseases; as metal-based medicines (including drugs,
imaging agents, and metal chelators); and as agents of metal-based toxicity.
Abstract
Metal ions are indispensable for living organisms. However, the roles of metal ions in humans is complex, and remains poorly understood. Imbalances in metal ion levels, due to genetic or environmental sources, are associated with a number of significant health issues. However, in clinical medicine, the role of metal ions and metal-based drugs is notable in three major areas: as metal-related diseases; as metal-based medicines (including drugs, imaging agents, and metal chelators); and as agents of metal-based toxicity.
