Current understanding of metal ions in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease
Open accessAbstract
Background: The homeostasis of metal ions, such as iron, copper, zinc and calcium, in the brain is crucial for maintaining normal physiological functions. Studies have shown that imbalance of these metal ions in the brain is closely related to the onset and progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common neurodegenerative disorder in the elderly. Main body: Erroneous deposition/distribution of the metal ions in different brain regions induces oxidative stress. The metal ions imbalance and oxidative stress together or independently promote amyloid-β (Aβ) overproduction by activating β- or γ-secretases and inhibiting α-secretase, it also causes tau hyperphosphorylation by activating protein kinases, such as glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β), cyclin-dependent protein kinase-5 (CDK5), mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), etc., and inhibiting protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A). The metal ions imbalances can also directly or indirectly disrupt organelles, causing endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress; mitochondrial and autophagic dysfunctions, which can cause or aggravate Aβ and tau aggregation/accumulation, and impair synaptic functions. Even worse, the metal ions imbalance-induced alterations can reversely exacerbate metal ions misdistribution and deposition. The vicious cycles between metal ions imbalances and Aβ/tau abnormalities will eventually lead to a chronic neurodegeneration and cognitive deficits, such as seen in AD patients. Conclusion: The metal ions imbalance induces Aβ and tau pathologies by directly or indirectly affecting multiple cellular/subcellular pathways, and the disrupted homeostasis can reversely aggravate the abnormalities of metal ions transportation/deposition. Therefore, adjusting metal balance by supplementing or chelating the metal ions may be potential in ameliorating AD pathologies, which provides new research directions for AD treatment.

“However, in AD, this finely tuned balance is disrupted. Misdistribution and pathological accumulation of these metals occur in Aβ plaques and NFTs, where they promote protein aggregation, oxidative stress, and neurotoxicity [107].”

“This protein known as the BACE performs proteolysis by generating a soluble fragment in the extracellular space known as “soluble APPβ” and an additional fragment bound to the plasma membrane, CTFβ peptide that undergoes proteolysis yet again by γ-secretase to generate toxic neuropeptides Aβ with 40–43 amino acids, finally causing the amyloid plaques characteristic of AD [165,166,167].”

“The absence of Aβ in neurons may inhibit adequate chelation of metal ions and appropriate removal of O2, resulting in an increased rather than a reduced oxidative stress.(424) Thus, the physiological anti-oxidant activity of Aβ peptides should be taken into account when designing therapeutic drugs to lower Aβ levels.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
