Influence of tea drinking on manganese intake, manganese status and leucocyte expression of MnSOD and cytosolic aminopeptidase P

Abstract: Objective: Since black tea contains high levels of manganese (Mn), we investigated the relationship between dietary Mn intake, circulating Mn levels and leucocyte expression of two Mn-dependent enzymes in tea drinkers and non-tea drinkers. Design: We assessed Mn intakes (food frequency questionnaire), fasting whole blood and plasma Mn levels, and quantitative expression of peripheral blood mononuclear cell Mn-dependent superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) and cytosolic aminopeptidase-P (cAP-P). Setting and subjects: I… Show more

“…Thus, in leaf samples with high Mn levels, greater attention should be paid to the contribution to the daily intake rates, especially with TUI index. Hope et al (2006) found that in the infusion of black tea leaves Mn content is commonly found exceeding the RDA value, and in some cases even exceeding the TUI. The low contribution of fruits to the RDA, as compared with leaves, is related to the Mn contents in the fruits being 88% lower than the leaf content (Figure 2).…”

“…Polyphenols are the most biologically active group of tea components which have antioxidative, antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic effects [4,5]. But there are other compounds in green tea with interest for human health like fluoride, caffeine, minerals and trace elements like, chromium and manganese [6][7][8].…”

“…However, no evidence is available on the effects of manganese depletion on the activity of manganese-dependent enzymes in humans. Hope et al (2006) determined the influence of tea drinking on manganese intake, on fasting manganese concentrations in plasma and whole blood and on leucocyte expression of MnSOD and aminopeptidase P in 24 tea drinkers and 28 controls. Mean manganese intake as assessed by a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was significantly lower in non-tea drinkers (3.2 mg/day) than in tea drinkers (5.5 or 10 mg/day, depending on the value used for the manganese content of black tea).…”
