Target Information
Metallothioneins are characterized by a high cysteine content, which allows them to bind various heavy metals. These proteins are transcriptionally regulated by both heavy metals and glucocorticoids. In mice, MT-1 serves crucial biological functions, including providing antioxidant protection, regulating metal ion homeostasis, and defending against oxidative stress. Research has demonstrated that MT-1 is significantly expressed in mouse models of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion, with expression levels correlating with the protective effects observed after ischemia-reperfusion. Additionally, zinc can activate the transcription of the MT-1 gene by binding to the metal response element (MRE) in its promoter region.
