Effect of metallothionein (MT) upon lipid peroxidation (LP) levels evaluated 4 h after surgical procedure in rats. The results are expressed as means ± SEM of florescence units per gram of wet tissue of 9 to 14 animals per group. Sham/SS: animals with laminectomy only plus saline solution; Sham/MT: rats with laminectomy with MT (10 μg per rat) at 2 and 8 h after surgery; SCI/SS: spinal cord injury and treatment with saline solution; SCI/MT: spinal cord contusion and treatment with metallothionein. Kruskal-Wallis following Mann-Whitney's U test, p < 0.05, different of all groups; ∗∗p < 0.05 different vs. SCI/SS.
