Unravelling the chemical nature of copper cuprizone.

چکیده
During the last 50 years, formation of the highly chromogenic copper cuprizone complex has been exploited for spectrophotometric determinations of copper although the precise chemical nature of the resulting species has never been ascertained; we eventually show here, in contrast to current opinion, that copper cuprizone is a copper(III)complex.

Myelin, copper, and the cuprizone model of schizophrenia.
In recent years increasing evidence is pointing toward white matter abnormalities in schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders. The present paper will provide an overview over the role of myelin in cognition and brain function, and its potential involvement in brain disorders. Furthermore, we will examine one particular experimental model for the study of dysmyelination, created by the admi...
متن کاملThymic Atrophy and Apoptosis of CD4+CD8+ Thymocytes in the Cuprizone Model of Multiple Sclerosis
Previous studies on the degenerative animal model of multiple sclerosis suggested that the copper-chelator cuprizone might directly suppress T-cell functions. Peripheral T-cell function in the cuprizone model has already been explored; therefore, in the present study, we investigated, for the first time, how cuprizone feeding affects the thymus, the organ of T-cell maturation and selection. We ...
متن کاملBehavioral and Neurobiological Changes in C57BL/6 Mouse Exposed to Cuprizone: Effects of Antipsychotics
Recent human studies suggest a role for altered oligodendrocytes in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Our recent animal study has reported some schizophrenia-like behaviors in mice exposed to cuprizone (Xu et al., 2009), a copper chelator that has been shown to selectively damage the white matter. This study was to explore mechanisms underlying the behavioral changes in cuprizone-exposed mi...
متن کاملIdentical flow injection spectrophotometric manifold for determination of protein, phosphorus, calcium, chloride, copper, manganese, iron, and zinc in feeds or premixes.
A simple procedure using an identical manifold was developed for determination of nitrogen (protein) phosphorus, calcium, chloride, copper, manganese, iron, and zinc in feeds and feedstuffs. By changing appropriate reagents and detection wavelength, these 8 elements were determined successively with a simple identical double-line flow injection (FI) manifold. Fl spectrophotometric determination...
متن کاملAmido-Amino Clay Stabilized Copper Nanoparticles: Antimicrobial Activity and Catalytic Efficacy for Aromatic Amination
Amido-amino functionalized halloysite stabilized copper nanoparticles (aah-CuNPs) were synthesized through one-pot protocol by a wet chemical method using hydrazine as reducing agent. The nanocomposite formed was stable in dry ethanol. The composition and binding nature of the nanocomposite were studied using FT-IR, DRS-UV, EDAX and powder XRD techniques. The morphological features of th...
