ATP13A2 (PARK9) polymorphisms influence the neurotoxic effects of manganese

Abstract: Introduction A higher prevalence of individuals affected by Parkinsonism was found in Valcamonica, Italy. This may be related to ferro-alloy smelters in the area, releasing manganese (Mn) in the air, soil and water for about a century. There exists individual susceptibility for Mn neurotoxicity. Aim To analyse how polymorphism in genes regulating Mn metabolism and toxicity can modify neurophysiological effects of Mn exposure. Materials and Methods Elderly (N=255) and adolescents (N=311) from Northern Italy… Show more

“…For example, deterioration in motor function is proportional to the levels of Mn found in the soil of various geochemical provinces [18]. Likewise, an increase in Mn in the brains of professional welders leads to a quicker development of Parkinson's disease [19,20].…”

“…The rs2871776 G allele that was associated with an adverse effect of Mn on motor coordination was associated with destroying a binding site for the transcription factor INSM1 that plays an important role in developing the central nervous system as shown in mouse and human embryos [72][73][74]. Absence of the binding site for this transcription factor on ATP13A2 hypothetically might explain why adult carriers in our study population perform more poorly in the motor coordination test upon Mn exposure [71]. The effect of Mn exposure on the nervous system was, in the elderly, influenced by the genetic polymorphism of PARK9, a susceptible gene for PD [71].…”

“…None of the polymorphisms alone had a significant influence on the motor coordination. After combination with Mn exposure, the rs4920608 CT and CC carriers showed decreased motor coordination, compared with TT carriers [71]. In addition, motor coordination was also reduced in the rs2871776-GG and -GA carriers, compared with the AA individuals with increasing of Mn exposure [71].…”

“…Supporting this is a recent study implicating ATP13A2 variants as potential risk factors for the neurotoxic actions of Mn in humans. 121 Based on the overall findings in the literature, ATP13A2 stimulation of Mn toxicity is likely to involve intracellular vesicular cation transport processes, which have the potential to indirectly provoke oxidative stress signals. Since ATP13A2 is selectively localized to the substantia nigra dopaminergic neurons, the actions of the variants will have little direct impact on Mn activity in the globus pallidus, at least in regard to its neurotic actions.…”
