Abstract Background/Aims: The homeostasis of essential metals such as copper, iron,
selenium and zinc may be altered in the brain of subjects with Alzheimer's disease (AD) …

This study aimed to evaluate the concentrations of copper, iron, and selenium in elderly
people with Alzheimer disease (AD), comparing the same parameters in a paired group of …

Objective: To determine whether serum trace metals are related to abnormal cognition in
Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methods: We studied serum lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), mercury …

We measured the levels of some biological metals: copper (Cu), iron (Fe), magnesium (Mg),
manganese (Mn), and zinc (Zn) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in patients with …

An essential metal hypothesis for neurodegenerative disease suggests an alteration in
metal homeostasis contributing to the onset and progression of disease. Similar …

Abnormal distributions of transition metals inside the brain are potential diagnostic markers
for several central nervous system diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD) …

Background: Environmental exposure to toxic metals has been postulated to play a role in
the pathophysiological processes of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the circulatory …

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder that leads to dementia
and death. In addition to several genetic parameters, various environmental factors may …

The aim of our experiments was to investigate the possible element concentration changes
in Alzheimer's disease. Our project incorporated the determination of the regional …

Metal dyshomeostasis is closely related to Alzheimer's disease, so the characterization of
the metal profiles in these patients is of special interest for studying associated …
