Hereditary ceruloplasmin deficiency increases advanced glycation end products in the brain

August 1, 1999 issue
53 (3) 619

Abstract

Article abstract We investigated the role of ceruloplasmin in the antioxidative process in the brain in a patient with hereditary ceruloplasmin deficiency (HCD). Immunohistochemistry revealed an accumulation of Nε-(carboxymethyl) lysine (CML) in basal ganglia of the HCD brain. In vitro study disclosed that ceruloplasmin inhibited CML formation from glycated proteins through the reaction of Fe2+ with H2O2 by Fenton reaction. These data suggest that ceruloplasmin plays an important role in the protection of neurons against oxidative stress associated with iron metabolism.
