Evidence Summary

Copper plays a role in systemic biology as evidenced by its regulation via ceruloplasmin, a copper-carrying protein used as a biomarker in Alzheimer's disease research (PMID: 41008575). Copper chelation (removal) via trientine is an established treatment for Wilson disease, a genetic copper overload disorder, with pharmacokinetic studies showing consistent drug exposure regardless of dissolution profile (PMID: 41428007). Copper depletion in cancer research has shown preclinical promise in suppressing immune resistance pathways (CD47/PD-L1) in tumor models (PMID: 41926649), and copper-containing wound dressings demonstrated faster diabetic foot ulcer healing compared to silver-only dressings in a small RCT (PMID: 41926471).
