Abstract
The aim of this review is to attempt to answer extremely important questions
related to aluminium-related diseases. Starting from an overview on the
main sources of aluminium exposure in everyday life, the principal aspects of
aluminium metabolism in humans have been taken into consideration in an
attempt to enlighten the main metabolic pathways utilised by trivalent metal
ions in different organs. The second part of this review is focused on the available
evidence concerning the pathogenetic consequences of aluminium overload
in human health, with particular attention to its putative role in bone and
neurodegenerative human diseases.
