Abstract

The development of adjuvant arthritis induced important modifications in intracellular levels of cyclic AMP and GMP in primary and secondary lymphoid organs: a continuous decrease in cyclic AMP and a biphasic increase in the level of cyclic GMP which correlate well with the onset of the acute phase and the systemization of the disease.
