Abstract
We have measured the concentration of copper and ceruloplasmin in serum of rats with carrageenan footoedema and in serum and exudate of rats with carrageenan pleurisy. Both serum copper and ceruloplasmin were found to increase in both models of inflammation. In these experimental conditions we have shown a strong positive correlation between copper and ceruloplasmin, in the serum of both normal and inflamed rats.This publication has 33 references indexed in Scilit:
