Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** MT1M is a cysteine-rich protein that belongs to the metallothionein family, which is characterized by its high affinity for binding metals. MT1M is predominantly expressed in cells that are involved in metal ion homeostasis, such as epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and satellite stem cells. It is also highly expressed in tissues that are exposed to metal ions, such as the exocrine pancreas and the lungs. **Pathways and Functions:** MT1M plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular homeostasis by binding and regulating the levels of essential and toxic metals. Its primary functions include: 1. **Detoxification of copper ion**: MT1M binds copper ions, preventing their accumulation and oxidative damage to cellular components. 2. **Intracellular zinc ion homeostasis**: MT1M regulates the levels of zinc ions, ensuring that they are available for essential biological processes while preventing their toxicity. 3. **Cellular response to metal ions**: MT1M responds to changes in metal ion levels, activating signaling pathways that regulate gene expression and cellular behavior. 4. **Negative regulation of growth**: MT1M can inhibit cell growth and proliferation in response to metal ion stress. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of MT1M has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Copper toxicity**: Elevated levels of MT1M have been observed in patients with copper toxicity, which can lead to neurological and gastrointestinal symptoms. 2. **Zinc deficiency**: Decreased levels of MT1M have been linked to zinc deficiency, which can impair immune function and increase the risk of infections. 3. **Pancreatitis**: MT1M has been shown to play a role in the pathogenesis of pancreatitis, where it can contribute to the development of pancreatic cancer. 4. **Pulmonary disease**: MT1M has been implicated in the pathogenesis of pulmonary diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pulmonary fibrosis. In conclusion, MT1M plays a critical role in maintaining cellular homeostasis by regulating metal ion levels and responding to changes in metal ion availability. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the importance of MT1M in maintaining health and preventing disease. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms by which MT1M regulates metal ion homeostasis and its implications in human disease.
