Manganese does not alter the severe neurotoxicity of MPTP

Abstract: We utilized a mice model of Parkinsonism: (1) to evaluate 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced neurotoxicity; and (2) to evaluate whether manganese (Mn) exposure can affect MPTP-induced neurotoxicity. A 2 × 3 experimental design (MPTP ×± Mn) was as follows: SS, MPTP(-) × Mn(-); SLMn, MPTP(-) × low Mn(+); SHMn, MPTP(-) × high Mn(+); MpS, MPTP(+) × Mn(-); MpLMn, MPTP(+) × low Mn(+); MpHMn, MPTP(+) × high Mn(+). We administered MPTP (30 mg/kg per day) to male C57BL/6 mice intraperi… Show more

“…Astrogliosis (Figure 3) persisted although Mn had been cleared from the cortex (Figure 1A). These results are in agreement with reports on increased GFAP expression in both rats and mice (Baek et al, 2007; Kern and Smith, 2011). TNF-α levels were significantly increased ( vs .…”

“…However, pretreatment with the PKCδ-specific inhibitor rottlerin did not block Mn-induced increases in TH activity, suggesting that PKCδ does not play a role in an acute-Mn treatment paradigm. A recent study showed increased TH activity without any increase in TH protein upregulation (Baek et al , 2007). During chronic Mn treatment, we noted decreased TH activity with no significant change in TH-Ser40 phosphorylation.…”

“…While there is characteristic striatal depletion of dopamine in iPD, acute or chronic Mn exposure in rodents decreased dopamine release with no effect on striatal dopamine (Baek et al . ; Peneder et al . ) and the number of SNpc dopaminergic neurons (Baek et al .…”
