The paper is concerned with the experimental data on a ERP signal size in two blood plasma metalloproteins--ceruloplasmin and transferrin and their correlations after intraperitoneal hydrocortisone and corticotropin injections (5 mg and 2.5 U/100 g body weight, respectively) to Wistar adult male rats and after bilateral adrenalectomy. A conclusion has been made that antioxidant activity of the ceruloplasmin-transferrin complex in rat blood plasma is increased with a rise of the corticotropin level but it is decreased with hydrocortisone loading.
