“…Our data are in agreement with recent reports showing Mn-induced caspase-3 activation in neuronal and non-neuronal cell culture models (Schrantz et al, 1999;Chun et al, 2001;Hirata, 2002). However, caspase-independent cell death has also been reported after manganese exposure (Roth et al, 2000;Oubrahim et al, 2001;Stredrick et al, 2004); the different cell types or methodologies used in these studies may explain the incongruent results. In our study, we did not observe complete protection against Mn-induced cell death with Z-DEVD-FMK and suspect that the concentration of Z-DEVD-FMK (50 M) was insufficient to completely block Mn-induced cytotoxic cell death.…”

“…At 300 μM, MnCl 2 cell viability is 75%. This result is in good agreement with other studies of manganese cytotoxicity on PC12 cells as determined by MTT assay (18,19).…”

“…The experiments described herein involve working concentrations up to 1000 μM for MnCl 2 and MnSO 4 , and up to 100 μM for MnPO 4 . The concentrations used in these studies are in line with many other experiments, i.e., Roth et al, (2000) and are representative of levels found in brains of non-human primates following exposure to manganese for 3 months (ranging from 35 to 350 μM; Suzuki et al, 1975).…”
