Pancreatic metallothionein-I may play a role in zinc homeostasis during maternal dietary zinc deficiency in mice.

The Journal of nutrition - 1 Jan 2003

Lee Dae Kee, Geiser Jim, Dufner-Beattie Jodi, Andrews Glen K

Abstract excerpt

Herein, the function of pancreatic metallothionein (MT)-I during zinc deficiency in pregnancy was examined using transgenic mice, which constitutively express the mouse MT-I gene driven by the rat elastase I promoter. Pancreatic MT protein levels and zinc levels were elevated significantly in the transgenic mice compared with those in control mice. Pregnant transgenic and control mice were fed zinc-deficient (1...
