Abstract: | Carrageenan-induced hind paw oedema has been studied in rats deprived of copper for different lengths of time.A common feature observed in normally fed and copper-deficient rats was the rise of serum copper levels coccurring between 10 and 24 h after the injection of the irritant.After 1 month of copper-deficient diet no differences are seen in the oedema developed by controls and copperdeprived animals, while after 3 months the oedema developed by copper-deficient rats was significantly greater compared with the controls.These results are briefly discussed. |
