Benefit Evidence
Research sources
Detoxification (2)
- A non-comparative randomized phase II study of 2 doses of ATN-224, a copper/zinc superoxide dismutase inhibitor, in patients with biochemically recurrent hormone-naïve prostate cancer
PubMed ID: 21816640
Choline tetrathiomolybdate (ATN‑224) markedly lowered ceruloplasmin, consistent with copper-chelating/detoxifying activity.
- Treatment of Wilson disease with ammonium tetrathiomolybdate: IV. Comparison of tetrathiomolybdate and trientine in a double-blind study of treatment of the neurologic presentation of Wilson disease
PubMed ID: 16606763
Tetrathiomolybdate (TTM) in Wilson disease functions as a copper chelator and markedly reduced early neurologic deterioration — strong evidence for detox/chelation utility.
Nutrient uptake (2)
- A non-comparative randomized phase II study of 2 doses of ATN-224, a copper/zinc superoxide dismutase inhibitor, in patients with biochemically recurrent hormone-naïve prostate cancer
PubMed ID: 21816640
ATN‑224 lowered ceruloplasmin and altered PSA kinetics, demonstrating altered copper chemistry/handling with molybdenum therapy.
- Biofortification of Vegetables with Iodine and Molybdenum for Healthy Nutrition: A Controlled Trial
PubMed ID: 41515120
Biofortified-lettuce RCT changed metabolic biomarkers, implying modified nutrient effects/availability (though Mo was combined with iodine).
Nutrition source (1)
- Effects of supplemental molybdenum on animal performance, liver copper concentrations, ruminal hydrogen sulfide concentrations, and the appearance of sulfur and molybdenum toxicity in steers receiving fiber-based diets
PubMed ID: 22871931
High Mo + S caused hepatic copper depletion and performance decline in steers — clear impact on mineral homeostasis (adverse).
Liver support (1)
- Treatment of Wilson disease with ammonium tetrathiomolybdate: IV. Comparison of tetrathiomolybdate and trientine in a double-blind study of treatment of the neurologic presentation of Wilson disease
PubMed ID: 16606763
TTM used in Wilson disease (a hepatic copper disorder); trial outcomes indicate therapeutic hepatic/copper-processing relevance.
Nerve health (1)
- Treatment of Wilson disease with ammonium tetrathiomolybdate: IV. Comparison of tetrathiomolybdate and trientine in a double-blind study of treatment of the neurologic presentation of Wilson disease
PubMed ID: 16606763
Randomized trial in Wilson disease: TTM plus zinc had far fewer early neurologic deteriorations than trientine plus zinc — strong nervous system benefit in this context.
Immune support (1)
- Varying Dietary Levels of Molybdenum Inducing Cell Apoptosis of Spleen Under Cadmium Stress in Caprine
PubMed ID: 26585322
Goat study: Mo + Cd increased splenic apoptosis and histologic damage—directly affects splenic/immune tissue (toxic effect).
Metabolism (1)
- Biofortification of Vegetables with Iodine and Molybdenum for Healthy Nutrition: A Controlled Trial
PubMed ID: 41515120
Human RCT: Mo/I-biofortified lettuce markedly raised HDL, lowered triglycerides and increased PYY — direct metabolic effects.
