(a–d) Results of mRNA expression in a group of rats treated with the mineral copper with a metallic nanoparticle form in the diet. All values are reported as mean ± standard deviation of relative quantity of mRNA level (n = 10). Significance: * p ≤ 0.05, ** p ≤ 0.01, *** p ≤ 0.001 vs. control group (Student’s t-test). Cusalt, control group, treated with mineral mix; CuMNP, group treated with mineral mix and 6.5 mg metallic Cu/kg from nanoparticles preparation as an emulsion along with dietary rapeseed oil.
