Metallothioneins (MTs) are a family of metal binding proteins that have been proposed to participate in a cellular defense against zinc toxicity and free radicals. In the present study, we investigated whether increased expression of MT in MT-1 isoform-overexpressing transgenic mice (MT-TG) affords protection against mild focal cerebral ischemia an...
