Abstract
⺠The function of Metallothioneins (MT)-III protein in ischemia is still unclear. ⺠We construct a cell permeable PEP-1-MT-III fusion protein. ⺠Transduced PEP-1-MT-III protein highly protects against oxidative stress-induced cell death and ischemic insult in animal models. ⺠PEP-1-MT-III protein could be useful as a therapeutic agent for oxidative stress.
