Abstract
Manganese (Mn) is a heavy metal that occurs widely in nature and has a vital physiological role in growth and development. However, excessive exposure to Mn can cause neurological damage, especially cognitive dysfunction, such as learning disability and memory loss. Numerous studies on the mechanisms of Mn-induced nervous system damage found that this metal targets a variety of metabolic pathways, for example, endoplasmic reticulum stress, apoptosis, neuroinflammation, cellular signaling pathway changes, and neurotransmitter metabolism interference. This article reviews the latest research progress on multiple signaling pathways related to Mn-induced neurological dysfunction.

Abstract
With the widespread use of manganese dioxide nanoparticles (nano MnO2), health hazards have also emerged. The inflammatory damage of brain tissues could result from nano MnO2, in which the underlying mechanism is still unclear. During this study, we aimed to investigate the role of ROS-mediated p38 MAPK pathway in nano MnO2-induced inflammatory response in BV2 microglial cells. The inflammatory injury model was established by treating BV2 cells with 2.5, 5.0, and 10.0 μg/mL nano MnO2 suspensions for 12 h. Then, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger (20 nM N-acetylcysteine, NAC) and the p38 MAPK pathway inhibitor (10 μM SB203580) were used to clarify the role of ROS and the p38 MAPK pathway in nano MnO2-induced inflammatory lesions in BV2 cells. The results indicated that nano MnO2 enhanced the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α, elevated intracellular ROS levels and activated the p38 MAPK pathway in BV2 cells. Controlling intracellular ROS levels with NAC inhibited p38 MAPK pathway activation and attenuated the inflammatory response induced by nano MnO2. Furthermore, inhibition of the p38 MAPK pathway with SB203580 led to a decrease in the production of inflammatory factors (IL-1β and TNF-α) in BV2 cells. In summary, nano MnO2 can induce inflammatory damage by increasing intracellular ROS levels and further activating the p38 MAPK pathway in BV2 microglial cells.

Free Radic Biol Med 2024; 210:390-405. [PMID: 38048852 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2023.11.037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/06/2023]
Abstract
Manganese (Mn) is an essential element for maintaining normal metabolism in vertebrates. Mn dioxide nanoparticles (MnO2 NPs), a novel Mn source, have shown great potentials in biological and biomedical applications due to their distinct physical and chemical properties. However, little is known about potential adverse effects on animal or cellular metabolism. Here, we investigated whether and how dietary MnO2 NPs affect hepatic lipid metabolism in vertebrates. We found that, excessive MnO2 NPs intake increased hepatic and mitochondrial Mn content, promoted hepatic lipotoxic disease and lipogenesis, and inhibited hepatic lipolysis and fatty acid β-oxidation. Moreover, excessive MnO2 NPs intake induced hepatic mitochondrial oxidative stress, damaged mitochondrial function, disrupted mitochondrial dynamics and activated mitophagy. Importantly, we uncovered that mtROS-activated phosphorylation of heat shock factor 1 (Hsf1) at Ser326 residue mediated MnO2 NPs-induced hepatic lipotoxic disease and mitophagy. Mechanistically, MnO2 NPs-induced lipotoxicity and mitophagy were via mtROS-induced phosphorylation and nucleus translocation of Hsf1 and its DNA binding capacity to plin2/dgat1 and bnip3 promoters, respectively. Overall, our findings uncover novel mechanisms by which mtROS-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction and phosphorylation of Hsf1S326 contribute to MnO2 NPs-induced hepatic lipotoxicity and mitophagy, which provide new insights into the effects of metal oxides nanoparticles on hepatotoxicity in vertebrates.
