Metallothioneins in Dental Implant Treatment Failure and Periodontitis in Patients with Down’s Syndrome: Validation of Results
Metallothioneins (MTs) are low molecular weight cysteine-rich proteins that can bind up to seven zinc ions. Among their numerous functions, MTs appear to act as protectors against oxidative and inflammatory injury. In our first published study, we reported downregulation of the isoforms <i>MT1...
