About interrelations between levels of a neurotrophic factor of a brain in blood, microelements in hair at young age

Abstract

Examination of healthy young volunteers of 22±1.4 years (n = 50) is conducted and levels of 48 microelements in hair are determined. It is shown that levels of a neurotrophic factor of a brain in a blood plasma are directly proportional to levels of lithium and copper in hair. Neurotropic effects of these microelements are considered.
