Also at ICAD, on Wednesday July 21, Dr. Bush is scheduled to give an invited lecture that will review the basic neuroscience describing the involvement of brain copper and zinc in Alzheimer pathology.
New data is expected to be presented on the interaction of cholesterol with betaamyloid and brain metals, which may play a key role in the sequence of events that leads to dementia.
The possibility that beta-amyloid participates in the functional regulation of copper levels in health will be discussed. (*MPACs, or Metal-Protein Attenuating Compounds are compounds that bind metals to prevent their interactions with proteins.)"
