This study aimed compare levels hair 1–16-year-old children with varying ASD severity. We included control group 57 children, as well 124 autism, consisting 53 mild moderate autism 71 severe autism. Questionnaires samples were collected, 21 chemical analyzed using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Children showed significantly higher copper (Cu) vanadium (V), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb) their bodies compared group. Boys Cu, As, Cd, Pb group, while girls exhibited lower potassium (K) increased Pb. Severely autistic under 7 years old had Mn, V, Co, Ni, aged 7–16 typically Cu As.

Manganese (Mn) is an essential trace element with unique functions in the body; it acts as a cofactor for many enzymes involved energy metabolism, endogenous antioxidant enzyme systems, neurotransmitter production, and regulation of reproductive hormones. However, overexposure to Mn toxic, particularly central nervous system (CNS) due causing progressive destruction nerve cells. Exposure manganese widespread occurs by inhalation, ingestion, or dermal contact. Associations have been observed between accumulation neurodegenerative diseases such manganism, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's Huntington's amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

α-Synuclein (α-Syn) is the major protein component of Lewy bodies, a key pathological feature Parkinson's disease (PD). The manganese ion Mn2+ has been identified as an environmental risk factor PD. However, it remains unclear how regulates α-Syn aggregation. Here, we discovered that Mn2+accelerates amyloid aggregation through regulation phase separation. We found not only promotes liquid-to-solid transition but also directly induces soluble monomers to form solid-like condensates. Interestingly, lipid membrane integrated into condensates during Mn2+-induced transition; however, preformed Mn2+/α-syn can recruit lipids surface In addition, this largely facilitate Although do fuse, our results demonstrated they could existing Furthermore, observed chelator reverses stage. after maturation, becomes irreversible.

Background Cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs) are among the most common complications of patients today. As prevalence ischemic CVAs rises, detecting related risk factors is crucial. Metal concentration has previously been considered a major factor in several neural complications, and this study, we will investigate this. Methods In case-control 70 CVA (clinically approved stroke cases by imaging NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS)) individuals with no history controls were enrolled as control group. The serum level metals, including Fe (Iron), Co (Cobalt), Ni (Nickel), Cu (copper), Zn (Zinc), Mn (Manganese), Pb (lead), Hg (Mercury), assessed using Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) method. Logistic regression (LR) also used to determine association between metals’ levels occurrence. Results mean age group was 48.68 ± 15.25 years for non-CVA 47.89 9.65 years, result indicated that statically higher (respectively; P < 0.001 = 0.002) significantly lower (P 0.003). Other measured (Fe, Co, Ni, Mn, Hg) not different groups. LR model, all Cu, Pb, metals had value 0.03 an odd ratio (OR) confidence interval (CI) 1.34 (1.02–1.75), 1.19 (1.01–1.39) 1.01 (1.001–1.02) respectively.
