Abstract
Early research on metallothionein centered on aspects related to a detoxification role. As our understanding of the complex endocrine control that regulates metallothionein gene expression increases, a wider appreciation of a functional role(s) is emerging. Medical implications of control of metallothionein turnover include diagnosis of specific diseases and regulation of its expression as a host defense component.
