Metal ions in the brain are a necessity as well as a poison. The
presence of metal ions in the active sites of biological catalysts
or metalloproteins and in the biological functioning of nucleic
acids is very well documented and they are required for brain
activity. On the other hand, metals are very effective in
generating oxidative stress. This effect does not only play a role
in immunology but also is the root of practically all
neurodegenerative disorders by inducing disease via the death of
neurons. Managing metal ions in the brain could therefore be an
important strategy in the search for therapeutic agents used in the
treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. This new title gives an
overview to key topics in the area of metal ions in the brain. It
focuses on the role of metal ions in neurological systems by
describing their advantageous functions as well as their poisonous
features. It is therefore of interest for scientists in
biochemistry and biophysics, physiology, toxicology as well as for
physicians focused on this topic.
