Cadmium-induced metallothionein (MT) synthesis was investigated in male rats of three ages, 3, 12 and 24 months. Physiological levels of MT in kidney, liver and lung measured simultaneously in untreated animals were found to be within the same range in all three age groups. Following 3-day treatment
