http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/10413187http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Metallothionein (MT) has been shown to protect cells from free radical induced DNA damage after exposure to copper, hydrogen peroxide and also radiation. In order to study the role of MT in radiation induced apoptosis, age-matched male control mice (C57BL/6J), MT-I overexpressing (MT-I*) and MT-null transgenic mice were exposed to whole body cobalt 60 gamma-irradiation at 0, 5, or 10 Gy, and their thymus were removed 24 h later. The basal levels of MT and zinc concentrations in the thymus were measured by 109Cadmium-heme assay and atomic absorption spectrophotometry, respectively. The MT expression after radiation was determined by immunohistochemical staining using a polyclonal antibody to MT. The extent of apoptosis in thymocytes was determined by histology (H&E stain). DNA was isolated from the thymus, and DNA fragmentation was determined by agarose gel electrophoresis. The results showed that the basal level of MT protein in MT-I* thymus was 2.4-fold higher than control mice, and that MT was inducible in both MT-I* and control C57BL6 thymus after radiation exposure. Minimal MT protein was detected in MT-null mice thymus before or after radiation, while, a significantly higher number of apoptotic cells and DNA fragmentation were found in MT-null thymus after whole body irradiation. These data demonstrated a protective role for MT in radiation-induced apoptosis in mouse thymus."xsd:string
