P4.7 PLASMA COPPER AND CERULOPLASMIN IN RELATION TO CAROTID-FEMORAL PULSE WAVE VELOCITY
Copper participates in the redox mechanisms and is a cofactor of enzymes responsible for appropriate structure of elastic fibres. The aim of the study was to assess the relationship between plasma copper as well as ceruloplasmin concentrations and carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV). The st...
