Ceruloplasmin is synthesized in the liver and contains six atoms of copper in it's structure. Ceruloplasmin carries more than 95% of the total copper in human plasma. A deficiency in Ceruloplasmin can cause, Wilson disease and copper deficiency. An abundance of Ceruloplasmin may cause, Lymphoma or Alzheimers disease.
