TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied serum peroxides, copper, iron, transferrin, and antioxidant capacity in 79 patients with AD (mean age 74.3 years; 25 men, 54 women) and in 76 cognitively normal individuals (mean age 70.1 years; 33 men, 43 women).
Journal ArticleDOI
Benefits from Dietary Polyphenols for Brain Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease
TL;DR: This commentary discusses recent data on effects of curcumin, resveratrol and catechins on Alzheimer’s disease, particularly focusing on results of some epidemiological studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Excess of nonceruloplasmin serum copper in AD correlates with MMSE, CSF β-amyloid, and h-tau

TL;DR: The authors' results confirm the existence of changes in copper component distribution, particularly the copper fraction unexplained by ceruloplasmin and support the hypothesis of a β-amyloid and copper connection in Alzheimer disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quinone toxicity in hepatocytes without oxidative stress
TL;DR: The results suggest that alkylation and/or oxidative stress may be important mechanisms in the cytotoxicity of benzoquinone derivatives.
Journal ArticleDOI
Excess of serum copper not related to ceruloplasmin in Alzheimer disease
Rosanna Squitti,Patrizio Pasqualetti,G. Dal Forno,Filomena Moffa,Emanuele Cassetta,Domenico Lupoi,Fabrizio Vernieri,Luisa Rossi,M. Baldassini,P.M. Rossini +9 more
TL;DR: Changes in the distribution of the serum copper components, consisting of an increase of a copper fraction not explained by ceruloplasmin, seem to be characteristic of Alzheimer disease and may be implicated in the pathogenesis of the disease.
