Abstract excerpt

Zinc is relevant for psychological dimensions, which are altered in zinc deficiency, as in aging. Since zinc deficiency and the beneficial effect of zinc supplementation may be related to genotypes of IL-6 -174 polymorphism, the main goal was to examine psychological dimensions in relationship to plasma zinc and genetic background of IL-6 in healthy elderly subjects, recruited in Italy, Greece, and Poland, before...
