Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesIncreased Copper-Mediated Oxidation of Membrane Phosphatidylethanolamine in AutismAbha Chauhan, Ashfaq M. Sheikh, Ved ChauhanWe have previously reported that levels of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) in the erythrocyte membrane and of ceruloplasmin, a copper-transport antioxidant protein, in the serum are lower in children with autism than in control subjects.
