Cadmium (Cd) exposure in mice induces transcription of metallothionein (MT) mRNA and protein accumulation in both liver and kidney. Resistance to hepatotoxicity through chronic exposure to heavy metals is the result of this induction. However, the same chronic exposure results in damage to kidney. W
