Ceruloplasmin (Cp) is a multicopper ferroxidase that links copper handling, iron export, and redox homeostasis. Within the nervous system, these functions are critical because disruption of iron and copper balance can amplify oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and neuronal vulnerability. Although Cp has long been studied as a circulating biomarker, most reports characterize it only by protein concentration, leaving its enzymatic and structural status comparatively unexplored. Here, we...
