Regulation of metallothionein isoform expression following induction by metals
The work described in this thesis reports the specificity of expression, and regulation of expression, of each rat MT isoform. Subcutaneous (sc) injection of 8.9 <I>μ</I>mol/kg of cadmium (Cd) rapidly induced MT-1 (10-fold) and MT-2 (3-fold) total mRNAs in rat liver. However, at the peak...
