Cells of a dedifferentiated rat hepatoma clone were submitted in vitro to copper deficiency. This treatment caused inhibition of cell growth. In addition, in treated cultures, the frequency of differentiated revertants selected in glucose-free medium was drastically increased when compared with the spontaneous frequency. The maximum effect was observed when cell proliferation spontaneously resumed after 20 days...
