Identification of copper metabolism-related subtypes and establishment of the prognostic model in ovarian cancer [PDF]
BackgroundOvarian cancer (OC) is one of the most common and most malignant gynecological malignancies in gynecology. On the other hand, dysregulation of copper metabolism (CM) is closely associated with tumourigenesis and progression.

α-Lipoic acid: a potential regulator of copper metabolism in Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by classic hallmarks such as amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, however, intensive research has broadened its scope to explore additional underlying mechanisms. Notably, disruptions in metal homeostasis,

Inflammation mobilizes copper metabolism to promote colon tumorigenesis via an IL-17-STEAP4-XIAP axis. [PDF]
Copper levels are known to be elevated in inflamed and malignant tissues. But the mechanism underlying this selective enrichment has been elusive. In this study, we report a axis by which inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-17, drive cellular copper ...

The impact of copper on bone metabolism
Copper is an essential trace element for the human body. Abnormalities in copper metabolism can lead to bone defects, mainly by directly affecting the viability of osteoblasts and osteoclasts and their bone remodeling function, or indirectly regulating ...

Influence of Silver Nanoparticles on the Growth of Ascitic and Solid Ehrlich Adenocarcinoma: Focus on Copper Metabolism [PDF]
The link between copper metabolism and tumor progression motivated us to use copper chelators for suppression of tumor growth. We assume that silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) can be used for lowering bioavailable copper.

Disorders of Copper Metabolism in Children—A Problem too Rarely Recognized [PDF]
Copper plays an important role in metabolic processes. Both deficiency and excess of this element have a negative effect and lead to pathological conditions. Copper is a cofactor of many enzymatic reactions.

Copper metabolism in cell death and autophagy. [PDF]
Copper is an essential trace element in biological systems, maintaining the activity of enzymes and the function of transcription factors. However, at high concentrations, copper ions show increased toxicity by inducing regulated cell death, such as ...
