Evidence for radical species as intermediates in cadmium/zinc-metallothionein-dependent DNA damage in vitro.

Toxicologic data on cadmium (Cd) indicate that intracellular metallothionein (MT) is protective for Cd exposure, whereas extracellular Cd-containing MT might be toxic. Moreover, Cd is suspected to be a carcinogen though the underlying mechanism is not known. Here we report on the genotoxic activity...
