Metallothionein (MT) was first discovered over 50 years ago, as a cadmiumbinding protein in the kidney of a horse. Metallothioneins are a class of ubiquitously occurring cysteine and metal-rich proteins of low molecular weight, containing sulfur-based metal clusters formed with zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), and copper (Cu). In mammals, four distinct MT isoforms designated MT-1 – MT-4 are identified. The major physiological functions of metallothioneins include the homeostasis of essential metals Zn and Cu and the protection against oxidative stress and toxic effects of heavy metals such as Cd. Cadmium ,which has been classified as class I carcinogen, can stimulate cell proliferation, inhibit DNA repair, impair apoptosis and promote the developme...
