Abstract
In situ methods are valuable in all fields of research. In toxicology, the importance of dose is well known, elevating the need for in situ techniques to measure levels of toxicants and their byproducts in precise anatomically identifiable locations. More recently, additional emphasis has been placed on the value of techniques which can detect chemical form or speciation, which is equally important in the toxicology of a chemical compound. Many important but conventional methods risk losing valuable information due to extractions, digestions, or the general reliance on mobile phases. Few analytical tools possess the power and diversity of X-ray methods as in-situ methods. Here we present an overview, intended for toxicologists and pathologists, of a variety of synchrotron X-ray methods for determining in situ chemical form and distribution of heavier elements. The versatility and range of these synchrotron techniques, which are both established and emerging, is demonstrated in the context of the study of neurotoxicology of mercury, a global pollutant with the ability to harm both human health and the environment.

Abstract
Cognitive decline is a public health problem for the world's ageing population. This study was to evaluate the relationships between serum Fe, blood Pb, Cd, Hg, Se and Mn and cognitive decline in elderly Americans. Data of this cross-sectional study were extracted from the National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (NHANES 2011-2014). Cognitive performance was measured by the Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's Disease (CERAD), Animal Fluency and Digit Symbol Substitution Test (DSST) tests. Weighted univariable and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to assess the associations between six trace elements and low cognitive performance. Subgroup analyses based on diabetes and hypertension history were further assessed the associations. A total of 2002 adults over 60 years old were included. After adjusting covariates, elevated serum Fe levels were associated with the decreased risk of low cognitive performance, especially in the elderly without diabetes history and with hypertension history. High blood Cd levels were associated with the high odds of low cognitive performance in old adults with diabetes and hypertension history. Elevated blood Mn levels were connected with low cognitive performance in old hypertensive people. High blood Pb levels were related to the high odds of low cognitive performance, especially in the elderly without diabetes and hypertension history. High blood Se levels were linked to the decreased risk of low cognitive performance in all the elderly. Appropriate Fe, Se supplementation and Fe-, Se-rich foods intake, while reducing exposure to Pb, Cd and Mn may be beneficial for cognitive function in the elderly.

Abstract
Imaging techniques permit the study of the molecular interactions that underlie health and disease. Each imaging technique collects unique chemical information about the cellular environment. Multimodal imaging, using a single probe that can be detected by multiple imaging modalities, can maximise the information extracted from a single cellular sample by combining the results of different imaging techniques. Of particular interest in biological imaging is the combination of the specificity and sensitivity of optical fluorescence microscopy (OFM) with the quantitative and element-specific nature of X-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM). Together, these techniques give a greater understanding of how native elements or therapeutics affect the cellular environment. This review focuses on recent studies where both techniques were used in conjunction to study cellular systems, demonstrating the breadth of biological models to which this combination of techniques can be applied and the potential for these techniques to unlock untapped knowledge of disease states.

Abstract
Dendrites are specialized neuronal compartments that sense, integrate and transfer information in the neural network. Their development is tightly controlled and abnormal dendrite morphogenesis is strongly linked to neurological disorders. While dendritic morphology ranges from relatively simple to extremely complex for a specified neuron, either requires a functional secretory pathway to continually replenish proteins and lipids to meet dendritic growth demands. The Golgi apparatus occupies the center of the secretory pathway and is regulating posttranslational modifications, sorting, transport, and signal transduction, as well as acting as a non-centrosomal microtubule organization center. The neuronal Golgi apparatus shares common features with Golgi in other eukaryotic cell types but also forms distinct structures known as Golgi outposts that specifically localize in dendrites. However, the organization and function of Golgi in dendrite development and its impact on neurological disorders is just emerging and so far lacks a systematic summary. We describe the organization of the Golgi apparatus in neurons, review the current understanding of Golgi function in dendritic morphogenesis, and discuss the current challenges and future directions.

Abstract
Chemical elements, especially metals, play very specific roles in the life sciences. The implementation of correlative imaging methods, of elements on the one hand and of molecules or biological structures on the other hand, is the subject of recent developments. The most commonly used spectro-imaging techniques for metals are synchrotron-induced X-ray fluorescence, mass spectrometry and fluorescence imaging of metal molecular sensors. These imaging methods can be correlated with a wide variety of other analytical techniques used for structural imaging (e.g., electron microscopy), small molecule imaging (e.g., molecular mass spectrometry) or protein imaging (e.g., fluorescence microscopy). The resulting correlative imaging is developed at different scales, from biological tissue to the subcellular level. The fields of application are varied, with some major research topics, the role of metals in the aetiology of neurodegenerative diseases and the use of metals for medical imaging or cancer treatment.

Abstract
Aim. To analyze risk factors in the group of patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and compare them with the literature data.Materials and methods. The study included 439 patients with PD and 354 controls, comparable by gender and age. For each individual, a registration card was filled in containing demographic, epidemiological, clinical, and neuropsychological data. The severity of the disease was studied according to the MDS-UPDRS scale; the stage of PD was determined according to the Hoehn and Yahr scale. Cognitive functions were assessed by the MoCA test and MMSE. The length of the (CAG)n repeat region in the HTT gene was determined using fragment analysis on the ABI 3730 DNA analyzer. The obtained results were analyzed using GeneMapper Software v4.1 (Applied Biosystems, USA).Results. When comparing patients with PD and the control group, the odds ratio (OR) for PD in individuals with traumatic brain injury was 3.13 (95% confidence interval (CI): 2,27–4.34; p = 4.94 × 10–13), which showed the significance of this risk factor for PD. Consumption of coffee in the anamnesis distinguished the group of PD patients from the control group (OR = 0.41 (95% CI: 0.30–0.56); p < 0.0001), confirming its neuroprotective effect. Analysis of the variability in the length of the (CAG)n repeat regions in the HTT gene showed that patients whose genotype contained an allele with 17 repeats in combination with any allele other than an allele containing 18 repeats had a protective effect (OR = 0.50 (95% CI: 0.27–0.92); p = 0.025). All genotypes containing an allele with 18 repeats were predisposed to PD (OR = 2.57 (95% CI: 1.66–4.28); p = 0.007). The predisposing effect of the allele to PD, unrelated to the expansion of CAG repeats in the HTT gene, was revealed for the first time.Conclusion. Traumatic brain injury and the allele with 18 CAG repeats in the HTT gene are risk factors for PD. Coffee consumption can be attributed to protective factors in relation to PD.

Abstract
The trace element zinc (Zn) binds to over ten percent of proteins in eukaryotic cells. Zn flexible chemistry allows it to regulate the activity of hundreds of enzymes and influence scores of metabolic processes in cells throughout the body. Deficiency of Zn in humans has a profound effect on development and in adults later in life, particularly in the brain, where Zn deficiency is linked to several neurological disorders. In this review, we will summarize the importance of Zn during development through a description of the outcomes of both genetic and early dietary Zn deficiency, focusing on the pathological consequences on the whole body and brain. The epidemiology and the symptomology of Zn deficiency in humans will be described, including the most studied inherited Zn deficiency disease, Acrodermatitis enteropathica. In addition, we will give an overview of the different forms and animal models of Zn deficiency, as well as the 24 Zn transporters, distributed into two families: the ZIPs and the ZnTs, which control the balance of Zn throughout the body. Lastly, we will describe the TRPM7 ion channel, which was recently shown to contribute to intestinal Zn absorption and has its own significant impact on early embryonic development.

Abstract
X-ray fluorescence microscopy performed at nanofocusing synchrotron beamlines produces quantitative elemental distribution maps at unprecedented resolution (down to a few tens of nanometres), at the expense of relatively long measuring times and high absorbed doses. In this work, a method was implemented in which fast low-dose in-line holography was used to produce quantitative electron density maps at the mesoscale prior to nanoscale X-ray fluorescence acquisition. These maps ensure more efficient fluorescence scans and the reduction of the total absorbed dose, often relevant for radiation-sensitive (e.g. biological) samples. This multimodal microscopy approach was demonstrated on human sural nerve tissue. The two imaging modes provide complementary information at a comparable resolution, ultimately limited by the focal spot size. The experimental setup presented allows the user to swap between them in a flexible and reproducible fashion, as well as to easily adapt the scanning parameters during an experiment to fine-tune resolution and field of view.

Abstract
Manganese (Mn) is an essential metal with a biphasic relationship with health outcomes. High-level exposure to Mn is associated with manganism, but few data explore the effects of chronic, lower-level Mn on cognitive function in adults. We sought to determine the relationship between blood/urinary manganese levels and cognitive function in elderly individuals using 2011-2014 data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Weighted multivariate regression models were used to determine correlations, adjusting for several covariates. Blood Mn was inversely associated with the Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's Disease (CERAD) immediate learning of new verbal information (p-value = 0.04), but lost significance after adjusting for medical history (p-value = 0.09). In addition, blood Mn was inversely associated with Animal Fluency scores after adjusting for all covariates. Urinary Mn was inversely associated with CERAD immediate learning after adjusting for all covariates (p-value = 0.01) and inversely associated with the Digit Symbol Substitution Test scores (p-value = 0.0002), but lost significance after adjusting for medical history (p-value = 0.13). Upon stratifying by race/ethnicity, other Races and Non-Hispanic (NH)-Blacks had significantly higher blood Mn levels when compared to NH-Whites. Collectively, these findings suggest that increased blood and urinary Mn levels are associated with poorer cognitive function in an elderly US population.

Abstract
Recent improvements in both X-ray detectors and readout speeds have led to a substantial increase in the volume of X-ray fluorescence data being produced at synchrotron facilities. This in turn results in increased challenges associated with processing and fitting such data, both temporally and computationally. Herein an abridging approach is described that both reduces and partially integrates X-ray fluorescence (XRF) data sets to obtain a fivefold total improvement in processing time with negligible decrease in quality of fitting. The approach is demonstrated using linear least-squares matrix inversion on XRF data with strongly overlapping fluorescent peaks. This approach is applicable to any type of linear algebra based fitting algorithm to fit spectra containing overlapping signals wherein the spectra also contain unimportant (non-characteristic) regions which add little (or no) weight to fitted values, e.g. energy regions in XRF spectra that contain little or no peak information.

Abstract
Manganese is an essential trace metal. The dysregulation of manganese seen in a broad spectrum of neurological disorders reflects its importance in brain development and key neurophysiological processes. Historically, the observation of acquired manganism in miners and people who misuse drugs provided early evidence of brain toxicity related to manganese exposure. The identification of inherited manganese transportopathies, which cause neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative syndromes, further corroborates the neurotoxic potential of this element. Moreover, manganese dyshomoeostasis is also implicated in Parkinson's disease and other neurodegenerative conditions, such as Alzheimer's disease and Huntington's disease. Ongoing and future research will facilitate the development of better targeted therapeutical strategies than are currently available for manganese-associated neurological disorders.

Abstract
Metals are essential for life and their concentration and distribution in organisms are tightly regulated. Indeed, in their free form, most transition metal ions are toxic. Therefore, an excess of physiologic metal ions or the uptake of non-physiologic metal ions can be highly detrimental to the organism. It is thus fundamental to understand metal distribution under physiological, pathological or environmental conditions, for instance in metal-related pathologies or upon environmental exposure to metals. Elemental imaging techniques can serve this purpose, by allowing the visualization and the quantification of metal species in tissues down to the level of cell organelles. Synchrotron radiation-based X-ray fluorescence (SR-XRF) microscopy is one of the most sensitive techniques to date, and great progress was made to reach nanoscale spatial resolution. Here we propose a correlative method to couple SR-XRF to electron microscopy (EM), with the possibility to quantify selected elemental contents in a specific organelle of interest with 50 × 50 nm2 raster scan resolution. We performed EM and SR-XRF on the same section of hepatocytes exposed to silver nanoparticles, in order to identify mitochondria through EM and visualize Ag co-localized with these organelles through SR-XRF. We demonstrate the accumulation of silver in mitochondria, which can reach a 10-fold higher silver concentration compared to the surrounding cytosol. The sample preparation and experimental setup can be adapted to other scientific questions, making the correlative use of SR-XRF and EM suitable to address a large panel of biological questions related to metal homeostasis.

Abstract
Many bivalve mollusks display remarkable sex differentiation of gonadal accumulation of manganese (Mn), but the underlying processes responsible for such differences have seldom been explored. In this study, the accumulation of Mn in male and female gonads during the reproductive cycle of oysters was first examined, and the distributions of Mn in oocytes and sperm cells at different developmental stages were imaged by the nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (NanoSIMS) at the subcellular level. We found that the distribution and accumulation of Mn during oogenesis were closely associated with the formation and translocation of cortical granules. This is the first time that the enrichment of Mn was directly visualized in cortical granules, which was identified as the major storage site of Mn in oocytes of oysters. Yolk granules were revealed as another storage pool of Mn in oyster oocytes with lower accumulation. In contrast, Mn was mainly distributed in the nucleus of sperm cells with accumulation levels much lower than those in cortical and yolk granules of oocytes. These results demonstrated great differences of the subcellular localization and accumulation capacity of Mn between oocytes and sperm cells in oysters, implying the sex differentiation in susceptibility of reproductive response to Mn stress. Our study also highlights the importance of gender difference in future biomonitoring and ecotoxicological studies of Mn in marine bivalves.

Abstract
X-ray-based analytics are routinely applied in many fields, including physics, chemistry, materials science, and engineering. The full potential of such techniques in the life sciences and medicine, however, has not yet been fully exploited. We highlight current and upcoming advances in this direction. We describe different X-ray-based methodologies (including those performed at synchrotron light sources and X-ray free-electron lasers) and their potentials for application to investigate the nano-bio interface. The discussion is predominantly guided by asking how such methods could better help to understand and to improve nanoparticle-based drug delivery, though the concepts also apply to nano-bio interactions in general. We discuss current limitations and how they might be overcome, particularly for future use in vivo.

Abstract
Manganese (Mn), an essential metal, can be toxic at elevated levels. In 2012, the first inherited cause of Mn excess was reported in patients with mutations in SLC30A10, a Mn efflux transporter. To explore the function of SLC30A10 in vitro, the current study used CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing to develop a stable SLC30A10 mutant Hep3B hepatoma cell line and collagenase perfusion in live mice to isolate primary hepatocytes deficient in Slc30a10. We also compared phenotypes of primary vs. non-primary cell lines to determine if they both serve as reliable in vitro models for the known physiological roles of SLC30A10. Mutant SLC30A10 Hep3B cells had increased Mn levels and decreased viability when exposed to excess Mn. Transport studies indicated a reduction of 54Mn import and export in mutant cells. While impaired 54Mn export was hypothesized given the essential role for SLC30A10 in cellular Mn export, impaired 54Mn import was unexpected. Whole genome sequencing did not identify any additional mutations in known Mn transporters in the mutant Hep3B mutant cell line. We then evaluated 54Mn transport in primary hepatocytes cultures isolated from genetically altered mice with varying liver Mn levels. Based on results from these experiments, we suggest that the effects of SLC30A10 deficiency on Mn homeostasis can be interrogated in vitro but only in specific types of cell lines.

Abstract
A growing body of evidence continues to demonstrate the vital roles that zinc and its transporters play on human health. The mammalian solute carrier 30 (SLC30) family, with ten current members, controls zinc efflux transport in cells. TMEM163, a recently reported zinc transporter, has similar characteristics in both predicted transmembrane domain structure and function to the cation diffusion facilitator (CDF) protein superfamily. This review discusses past and present data indicating that TMEM163 is a zinc binding protein that transports zinc in cells. We provide a brief background on TMEM163’s discovery, transport feature, protein interactome, and similarities, as well as differences, with known SLC30 (ZnT) protein family. We also examine recent reports that implicate TMEM163 directly or indirectly in various human diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, Mucolipidosis type IV and diabetes. Overall, the role of TMEM163 protein in zinc metabolism is beginning to be realized, and based on current evidence, we propose that it is likely a new CDF member belonging to mammalian SLC30 (ZnT) zinc efflux transporter proteins.

Abstract
Zinc and copper are involved in neuronal differentiation and synaptic plasticity but the molecular mechanisms behind these processes are still elusive due in part to the difficulty of imaging trace metals together with proteins at the synaptic level. We correlate stimulated-emission-depletion microscopy of proteins and synchrotron X-ray fluorescence imaging of trace metals, both performed with 40 nm spatial resolution, on primary rat hippocampal neurons. We reveal the co-localization at the nanoscale of zinc and tubulin in dendrites with a molecular ratio of about one zinc atom per tubulin-αβ dimer. We observe the co-segregation of copper and F-actin within the nano-architecture of dendritic protrusions. In addition, zinc chelation causes a decrease in the expression of cytoskeleton proteins in dendrites and spines. Overall, these results indicate new functions for zinc and copper in the modulation of the cytoskeleton morphology in dendrites, a mechanism associated to neuronal plasticity and memory formation.

Cytoplasmic aggregation of uranium in human dopaminergic cells after continuous exposure to soluble uranyl at non-cytotoxic concentrations. Neurotoxicology 2020; 82:35-44.

Abstract
Uranium exposure can lead to neurobehavioral alterations in particular of the monoaminergic system, even at non-cytotoxic concentrations. However, the mechanisms of uranium neurotoxicity after non-cytotoxic exposure are still poorly understood. In particular, imaging uranium in neurons at low intracellular concentration is still very challenging. We investigated uranium intracellular localization by means of synchrotron X-ray fluorescence imaging with high spatial resolution (< 300 nm) and high analytical sensitivity (< 1 μg.g-1 per 300 nm pixel). Neuron-like SH-SY5Y human cells differentiated into a dopaminergic phenotype were continuously exposed, for seven days, to a non-cytotoxic concentration (10 μM) of soluble natural uranyl. Cytoplasmic submicron uranium aggregates were observed accounting on average for 62 % of the intracellular uranium content. In some aggregates, uranium and iron were co-localized suggesting common metabolic pathways between uranium and iron storage. Uranium aggregates contained no calcium or phosphorous indicating that detoxification mechanisms in neuron-like cells are different from those described in bone or kidney cells. Uranium intracellular distribution was compared to fluorescently labeled organelles (lysosomes, early and late endosomes) and to fetuin-A, a high affinity uranium-binding protein. A strict correlation could not be evidenced between uranium and the labeled organelles, or with vesicles containing fetuin-A. Our results indicate a new mechanism of uranium cytoplasmic aggregation after non-cytotoxic uranyl exposure that could be involved in neuronal defense through uranium sequestration into less reactive species. The remaining soluble fraction of uranium would be responsible for protein binding and for the resulting neurotoxic effects.

Abstract
Ions are ubiquitous in nature. They play a key role for many biological processes on the molecular scale, from molecular interactions, to mechanical properties, to folding, to self-organisation and assembly, to reaction equilibria, to signalling, to energy and material transport, to recognition etc. Going beyond monovalent ions to multivalent ions, the effects of the ions are frequently not only stronger (due to the obviously higher charge), but qualitatively different. A typical example is the process of binding of multivalent ions, such as Ca2+ , to a macromolecule and the consequences of this ion binding such as compaction, collapse, potential charge inversion and precipitation of the macromolecule. Here we review these effects and phenomena induced by multivalent ions for biological (macro)molecules, from the "atomistic/molecular" local picture of (potentially specific) interactions to the more global picture of phase behaviour including, e. g., crystallisation, phase separation, oligomerisation etc. Rather than attempting an encyclopedic list of systems, we rather aim for an embracing discussion using typical case studies. We try to cover predominantly three main classes: proteins, nucleic acids, and amphiphilic molecules including interface effects. We do not cover in detail, but make some comparisons to, ion channels, colloidal systems, and synthetic polymers. While there are obvious differences in the behaviour of, and the relevance of multivalent ions for, the three main classes of systems, we also point out analogies. Our attempt of a comprehensive discussion is guided by the idea that there are not only important differences and specific phenomena with regard to the effects of multivalent ions on the main systems, but also important similarities. We hope to bridge physico-chemical mechanisms, concepts of soft matter, and biological observations and connect the different communities further.

Nano-imaging trace elements at organelle levels in substantia nigra overexpressing α-synuclein to model Parkinson's disease. Commun Biol 2020; 3:364.

Abstract
Sub-cellular trace element quantifications of nano-heterogeneities in brain tissues offer unprecedented ways to explore at elemental level the interplay between cellular compartments in neurodegenerative pathologies. We designed a quasi-correlative method for analytical nanoimaging of the substantia nigra, based on transmission electron microscopy and synchrotron X-ray fluorescence. It combines ultrastructural identifications of cellular compartments and trace element nanoimaging near detection limits, for increased signal-to-noise ratios. Elemental composition of different organelles is compared to cytoplasmic and nuclear compartments in dopaminergic neurons of rat substantia nigra. They exhibit 150–460 ppm of Fe, with P/Zn/Fe-rich nucleoli in a P/S-depleted nuclear matrix and Ca-rich rough endoplasmic reticula. Cytoplasm analysis displays sub-micron Fe/S-rich granules, including lipofuscin. Following AAV-mediated overexpression of α-synuclein protein associated with Parkinson’s disease, these granules shift towards higher Fe concentrations. This effect advocates for metal (Fe) dyshomeostasis in discrete cytoplasmic regions, illustrating the use of this method to explore neuronal dysfunction in brain diseases. Lemelle et al. describe the use of TEM and synchrotron X-ray fluorescence for quasi-correlative nanoimaging and sub-cellular trace element quantification of rat brain tissue. They further observe elemental (iron and sulfur) dyshomeostasis in cytoplasmic granules when overexpressing α-synuclein protein associated with Parkinson’s disease, demonstrating the usefulness of this method to further explore dysfunctions at organelle levels in brain diseases.

Abstract
We report the application of lanthanide-binding tags (LBTs) for two- and three-dimensional X-ray imaging of individual proteins in cells with a sub-15 nm beam. The method combines encoded LBTs, which are tags of minimal size (ca. 15-20 amino acids) affording high-affinity lanthanide ion binding, and X-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM). This approach enables visualization of LBT-tagged proteins while simultaneously measuring the elemental distribution in cells at a spatial resolution necessary for visualizing cell membranes and eukaryotic subcellular organelles.

Abstract
Synchrotron-based X-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM) has become an important imaging technique to investigate elemental concentrations and distributions in biological specimens. Advances in technology now permit imaging at resolutions rivaling that of electron microscopy, and researchers can now visualize elemental concentrations in subcellular organelles when using appropriate correlative methods. XFM is an especially valuable tool to determine the distribution of endogenous trace metals that are involved in neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we discuss the latest research on the unusual copper (Cu) storage vesicles that were originally identified in mouse brains and the involvement of Cu in Alzheimer's disease. Finally, we provide an outlook of how future improvements to XFM will drive current trace element research forward.

Abstract
Manganese (Mn) is an essential element necessary for proper development and brain function. Circulating Mn levels are regulated by hepatobiliary clearance to limit toxic levels and prevent tissue deposition. To characterize mechanisms involved in hepatocyte Mn uptake, polarized human HepaRG cells were used for this study. Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence microscopy showed the Mn transporter ZIP14 was expressed and localized to the basolateral surface of polarized HepaRG cells. HepaRG cells took up 54Mn in a time- and temperature-dependent manner but uptake was reduced after exposure to Mn. This loss in transport activity was associated with decreased ZIP14 protein levels in response to Mn exposure. Mn-induced degradation of ZIP14 was blocked by bafilomycin A1, which increased localization of the transporter in Lamp1-positive vesicles. Mn exposure also down-regulated the Golgi proteins TMEM165 and GPP130 while the ER stress marker BiP was induced. These results indicate that Mn exposure decreases ZIP14 protein levels to limit subsequent uptake of Mn as a cytoprotective response. Thus, high levels of Mn may compromise first-pass-hepatic clearance mechanisms.

Abstract
Brain metal homeostasis is altered in neurodegenerative diseases and the concentration, the localization and/or the chemical speciation of the elements can be modified compared to healthy individuals. These changes are often specific to the brain region affected by the neurodegenerative process. For example, iron concentration is increased in the substantia nigra (SN) of Parkinson's disease patients and iron redox reactions might be involved in the pathogenesis. The identification of the molecular basis behind metal dyshomeostasis in specific brain regions is the subject of intensive research and chemical element imaging methods are particularly useful to address this issue. Among the imaging modalities available, Synchrotron X-ray fluorescence (SXRF) and particle induced X-ray emission (PIXE) using focused micro-beams can inform about the quantitative distribution of metals in specific brain regions. Micro-X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES) can in addition identify the chemical species of the elements, in particular their oxidation state. However, in order to bring accurate information about metal changes in specific brain areas, these chemical imaging methods must be correlated to brain tissue histology. We present a methodology to perform chemical element quantitative mapping and speciation on well-identified brain regions using correlative immunohistochemistry. We applied this methodology to the study of an animal model of Parkinson's disease, the 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesioned rat. Tyrosine hydroxylase immunohistochemical staining enabled to identify the SN pars compacta (SNpc) and pars reticulata (SNpr) as well as the ventral tegmental area (VTA). Using PIXE we found that iron content was higher respectively in the SNpr > SNpc > VTA, but was not statistically significantly modified by 6-OHDA treatment. In addition, micro-SXRF revealed the higher manganese content in the SNpc compared to the SNpr. Using micro-XANES we identified Fe oxidation states in the SNpr and SNpc showing a spectral similarity comparable to ferritin for all brain regions and exposure conditions. This study illustrates the capability to correlate immunohistochemistry and chemical element imaging at the brain region level and this protocol can now be widely applied to other studies of metal dyshomeostasis in neurology.

Abstract
Elucidating dynamics in transition-metal distribution and localization under physiological and pathophysiological conditions is central to our understanding of metal-ion regulation. In this Forum Article, we focus on manganese and specifically recent developments that point to the relevance of the Golgi apparatus in manganese detoxification when this essential metal ion is overaccumulated because of either environmental exposure or mutations in manganese efflux transporters. In order to further evaluate the role of the Golgi apparatus as a manganese-ion storage compartment under subcytotoxic manganese levels, we use a combination of confocal microscopy using a sensitive "turn-on" fluorescent manganese sensor, M1, and nanosynchrotron X-ray fluorescence imaging to show that manganese ions are stored in the Golgi apparatus under micromolar manganese exposure concentrations. Our results, along with previous reports on manganese accumulation, now indicate a central role of the Golgi apparatus in manganese storage and trafficking under subcytotoxic manganese levels and hint toward a possible role of the Golgi apparatus in manganese storage even under physiological conditions.
