Algal Metallothioneins: Synthesis and regulation of two putative metallothioneins within the blue-green cyanobacteria anacystis nidulans [PDF]
, 1989 Metallothioneins are low molecular-weight, cysteine-rich, trace metal-binding proteins. Whereas class III metallothioneins (MTs) have been isolated in eukaryotic algae, Anacystis nidulans (Synechococcus TX20) remains the only prokaryote in which a class ...

Toxics, 2022 Earthworms are well-established model organisms for testing the effects of heavy metal pollution. How DNA methylation affects cadmium (Cd) detoxification processes such as the expression of metallothionein 2 (MT2), however, is largely unknown.

Dynamic structure of metallothionein [PDF]
, 1984 Molecular sieve chromatography of rabbit liver metallothionein at different electrolyte concentrations revealed that this protein undergoes an increase in Stokes radius from 1.50 to 1.78 nm when the ionic strength is lowered from 0.5 to 0.015 indicating ...

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a life‐threatening cardiovascular disease with limited therapeutic options. Through single‐cell RNA sequencing of aortic tissues from healthy individuals and TAA patients (105,541 cells), we identified CLEC5A+macrophages as the predominant pathogenic cell population exhibiting the highest M1 polarization score. Machine

Two metallothionein gene family members in buckwheat: Expression analysis in flooding stress using Real Time RT-PCR technology [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2008 Metallothioneins (MTs) are an extensive and diverse family of small cysteine-rich proteins with metal-binding ability that are involved in metal homeostasis and detoxification. Two cDNA clones of the MT3 type, differing in 3’ UTRs, were isolated from the

Med Research, EarlyView.This review summarizes the immuno‐inflammatory mechanisms driving the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA), extending beyond the traditional view of OA as a purely degenerative disease to incorporate immune cell infiltration, inflammatory factor release, and the formation of a chronic low‐grade inflammatory microenvironment.

The Alchemist’s Approach to Metal Poisoning: Transforming the Metal Burden
Toxics, 2014 Metal poisoning is a global problem with humans being exposed to a wide range of metals in varying doses and varying time frames. Traditionally, treatment involves removal of the toxic source or chelation therapy. An intermediate approach is needed. This

Senotherapeutics for Knee Osteoarthritis
Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic disease that imposes a significant economic burden and deteriorates quality of life. Nevertheless, current therapeutic options for OA are limited to symptomatic remedies. As such, there is a high interest in novel methods for treating or preventing OA.
