The Role of Copper Intake in the Development and Management of Type 2 Diabetes: A Systematic Review

Abstract: Diabetes mellitus is a worldwide public health issue with numerous complications. Several risk factors are associated with diabetes, mainly due to patients following an unhealthy lifestyle. Copper is a crucial trace element, with various physiological actions. Different intake levels of copper might contribute to diabetes development due to its dual action as both an anti- and pro-oxidant. Aim: Due to the inconclusive findings regarding the relationship between copper consumption and the management of diabetes… Show more

“…Excessive copper intake leads to liver and kidney damage, anaemia due to reduced production of red blood cells, overproduction of reactive oxygen species and, consequently, diabetes. On the other hand, a deficiency leads to vomiting, diarrhoea, enteropathy, mental deficiency, hypothermia, osteoporosis and retarded growth [ 73 ].…”

“…All were further scrutinised, and finally, 30 articles were judged as relevant and cited. Upon the publication of the NNR2023 report ( 2 ), an updated search was conducted by the NNR2023 committee on 15th April 2023, in which one additional publication was found to be eligible ( 6 ). Additionally, we have included three publications that were not picked up by the search string ( 1 , 7 , 8 ).…”

“…Another mechanism might be that copper is involved in the reactions of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), which is a major beta-cell antioxidant that is altered by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Anti-GAD antibodies contribute to the pathogenesis of T2DM [166,167]. Copper in high doses is suggested to have a pro-oxidant activity, so it is also possible for copper to cause the production of ROS through the Fenton reaction, which can hinder many processes, including ones associated with insulin resistance development and impaired glucose metabolism [168].…”
