Effects of manganese ions on thyroid function in rat

Abstract: Rats were treated with MnSO4, H2O (1 mg/100 g/day, SC) for a period of 5 weeks. Thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) levels were measured in thyroid by radioimmunoassay. T4, T3 and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels were also estimated by radioimmunoassay in serum. Manganese treatment produced no change in thyroid T4 and T3 levels but induced a significant decrease in serum T4, T3 and TSH levels. This decrease can be interpreted as the result of a pituitary alteration which appears to be related to t… Show more

“…Therefore, this theory remains to be proved. Buthieau and Autissier (1983) reported recently that the TSH level was lowered in the Mn injected rat, suggesting that Mn may depress the pituitary and thyroidal functions. If this evidence could be extended to mouse, the reduction in cell height with retained colloid due to the prolonged oral administration of Mn might be attributed to the reduced blood TSH level.…”

Each value represents the mean of two determinations for each sex.…”

“…We also observed Mn 2+ accumulation in other organs of the head and neck region, which are not shielded by the bloodbrain barrier, such as the pituitary, thyroid and other endocrine glands. Although the specific function of Mn 2+ in these glands is not fully elucidated, it seems to be involved in important processes such as protection against oxidative injury (26,27) and post-translational modifications of components in the secretory pathway, such as those involved in thyroid hormone production (28)(29)(30).…”

“…Levels of plasma manganese were elevated in individuals with goiter in another study (49). In rodents, administration of manganese was reported to reduce serum levels of thyroxine or induce goiter (42,50,51). Thus, there is precedent for our discovery of manganese-induced thyroid defects in Slc30a10 knockout mice.…”
