title: Inhibition of Fe(2+)-induced lipid peroxidation in egg yolk lipoproteins by metallothionein.
abstract: Rat hepatic apometallothionein and to a lesser extent Zn-metallothionein inhibit Fe(2+)-dependent lipid peroxidation (LPO) in suspensions of egg yolk lipoproteins. ZnCl2 or its combination with cysteine at corresponding concentrations activate LPO.
