Role of serum ceruloplasmin in the diagnosis of Wilson's disease: A large Chinese study [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundConventionally, serum ceruloplasmin levels below the lower reference limit (0. 20 g/L) is considered a diagnostic cutoff point for Wilson's disease (WD).

Assessing whether serum ceruloplasmin promotes non-alcoholic steatohepatitis via regulating iron metabolism [PDF]

Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2023
Background: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a progressive form of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The diagnostic gold standard for detecting NASH still relies upon an invasive pathological biopsy.

Plasma zinc, copper and serum ceruloplasmin levels of autism spectrum disorder children in Bangladesh [PDF]

Heliyon, 2023
Neural and cognitive processes require zinc and copper homeostasis and a normal zinc/copper ratio. Ceruloplasmin, an intrinsic antioxidant protein, maintains copper homeostasis, which might also influence autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Elevated Serum Ceruloplasmin Levels Are Associated with Higher Impulsivity in People with Parkinson’s Disease [PDF]

Parkinson's Disease, 2020
Background. Heightened impulsivity has been reported in a subset of people with Parkinson’s disease (PwP) and is considered a risk factor for the development of impulse control disorders (ICDs).

Pediatric Wilson Disease in Sudan: A Rare Case, Sudan Conflict and Diagnostic Challenges. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Wilson disease is rarely reported among African children. Wilson disease is due to a mutation in ATP7B on an autosomal recessive pattern, which causes defective copper excretion and copper accumulation in tissues such as liver and brain.

Association of serum trace elements with non-invasive fibrosis scores in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Liver biopsy is not a routine screening tool for detecting fibrosis progression in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Noninvasive methods based on serum biomarkers are used instead.
