. The qualitative study aimed to analyse Estonian nurses’ professional activity and work culture during the Soviet era and the transition period of the 1990s from the perspective of senior nurses. In 1940–1941 and 1944–1991, the territory of the Republic of Estonia was occupied by Soviet Russia. The ‘new period of awakening’ was initiated under Gorbachev’s perestroika and glasnost (1985–1991), leading to democratisation. As soon as the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, Estonia began to establish a new healthcare system based on European standards. The research was conducted in 2021 and 2022. Senior nurses (aged 69–87) who had worked for at least 20 years during the Soviet era and at least 5 years during the transition period were surveyed. Thematic interviews were conducted in written form and orally (13 interviewees), followed by a focus group interview (8 interviewees). A thematic content analysis was performed. Nurses’ daily work during the Soviet era was characterised by poor working conditions, hierarchical professional relations, and miserable career prospects. Nursing, like many other fields, was strongly influenced by Soviet ideology. The relationship between nurses was mutually supportive. The period of transition created a chaotic situation – the working methods of the previous period were considered outdated, but no new direction had yet been established. Nurses’ knowledge was improved through professional training and access to foreign experience.

. Copper is an indispensable biometal participating as a redox catalyst in many important biochemical processes. However, if uncontrolled, copper ions induce the formation of reactive oxygen species and become toxic. For this reason, cellular copper metabolism is tightly regulated and specific proteins – copper chaperones – participate in the metalation of cellular copper transporters and enzymes. The thermodynamic background for cellular copper distribution is known, and copper is driven to cellular destinations according to shallow affinity gradients. Copper metabolism is disturbed in the case of Wilson’s, Menkes, and Alzheimer’s disease (AD), characterized by copper overload, deficiency, and misdistribution, respectively. Wilson’s and Menkes disease could be treated by copper chelators and supplements, respectively; however, with AD, a search for effective molecular tools for the correction of copper metabolism is ongoing. One natural copper binding ligand – α lipoic acid – has shown positive results in cellular and fruit fly models of AD and serves as a promising candidate for the regulation of copper metabolism in the case of AD.
