Copper ($\text{Cu}$) and Myelin Lubrication
Copper/) is integral to several metalloenzymes, including cytochrome c oxidase. In the context of advanced neurological signalling, Copper is posited to act as a liquid lubricant for the axonal cytoskeleton, specifically reducing the coefficient of kinetic friction ($\muk$)) within the [myelin sheath](/entrie…
