The "metal transcription factor" MTF-1: biological facts and medical implications

17 Nov 2001

Abstract excerpt

Metallothioneins (MTs) are a class of small, cysteine-rich proteins that have an important function in heavy metal metabolism and detoxification and in the management of various forms of cell stress. Several lines of evidence suggest a role for metallothioneins in therapy resistance of malignant tumours, regulation of blood pressure and protection against some neurological diseases. Basal and heavy metal-induced...
