| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Trace minerals including zinc and copper are essential for life support. Nutritional surveys of sick patients conducted by the applicants have suggested that in patients with hypoalbuminemia, it may be difficult to judge "hypozincemia" as "true zinc deficiency", and that serum zinc concentration is closely related with those of albumin, lipids, copper and calcium. Meanwhile, in vitro studies at other institutions are revealing that these elements may compete for albumin binding sites. In this study, we attempted to elucidate the network of trace elements in plasma and the crosstalk between minerals and lipids by analyzing blood test information from hospitalized patients.
