Reactive oxygen-derived free radicals are key to the endothelial dysfunction of diabetes. [PDF]
Vascular complications are an important pathological issue in diabetes that lead to the further functional deterioration of several organs. The balance between endothelium-dependent relaxing factors and endothelium-dependent contracting factors (EDCFs ...

ABSTRACT We developed a comprehensive, mechanistic model of human copper metabolism to support biomarker qualification for VTX‐801, an adeno‐associated vector‐based gene therapy which is being developed to restore the mutated ATP7B copper transporter gene in Wilson disease (WD). The model integrates physiological copper kinetics with pathophysiological

Background and Purpose Methanobactins are peptides with high copper affinity and potential to treat Wilson disease. We examined how two methanobactins (ARBM101 and MB‐OB3b) affected copper handling in the LPP Atp7b−/− Wilson disease rat model, compared to penicillamine or saline, by 64Cu positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging ...

Rapid copper acquisition by developing murine mesothelioma: decreasing bioavailable copper slows tumor growth, normalizes vessels and promotes T cell infiltration. [PDF]
Copper, an essential trace element acquired through nutrition, is an important co-factor for pro-angiogenic factors including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).

Truncating mutations in the Wilson disease gene ATP7B are associated with very low serum ceruloplasmin oxidase activity and an early onset of Wilson disease [PDF]
Background Mutations in the gene ATP7B cause Wilson disease, a copper storage disorder with a high phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity. We aimed to evaluate whether 'severe' protein-truncating ATP7B mutations (SMs) are associated with low serum ...

Plasma Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Correlates With Brain Metal Burden in Wilson's Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Neuroinflammation driven by extracellular copper contributes to neuronal damage in Wilson's disease (WD). This study investigated the relationship between brain metal burden and peripheral neuroinflammation markers in WD. Methods We conducted a cross‐sectional study involving 89 participants, including patients with WD (n = 63 ...

Wilson disease is a rare genetic hepatic and neurological disorder of copper accumulation. Trientine is usually used as a second line in the management of patients with this condition. We present a case of a large overdose of Trientine (60 g) resulting in self-limiting dizziness and vomiting with no further clinical sequelae or significant biochemical ...

COL6A2: A Key Survival‐Related Gene and Restricting Antitumor Immunity in Glioblastoma
Targeting COL6A2 enhances the activation of dendritic cells and anti‐tumor immunity in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). COL6A2 may act as a key mediator of immune escape in GBM and a potential target for combinatorial immunotherapeutic strategies. ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive malignant brain tumor, characterized by a poor prognosis and a ...
