Iron mitigates DMT1-mediated manganese cytotoxicity via the ASK1-JNK signaling axis: Implications of iron supplementation for manganese toxicity
Manganese (Mn(2+)) neurotoxicity from occupational exposure is well documented to result in a Parkinson-like syndrome. Although the understanding of Mn(2+) cytotoxicity is still incomplete, both Mn(2+) and Fe(2+) can be transported via the divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1), suggesting that competi...

Sumario: | Manganese (Mn(2+)) neurotoxicity from occupational exposure is well documented to result in a Parkinson-like syndrome. Although the understanding of Mn(2+) cytotoxicity is still incomplete, both Mn(2+) and Fe(2+) can be transported via the divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1), suggesting that competitive uptake might disrupt Fe(2+) homeostasis. Here, we found that DMT1 overexpression significantly enhanced Mn(2+) cytoplasmic accumulation and JNK phosphorylation, leading to a reduction in cell viability. Although a robust activation of autophagy was observed alongside these changes, it did not trigger autophagic cell death, but was instead shown to be essential for the degradation of ferritin, which normally sequesters labile Fe(2+). Inhibition of ferritin degradation through the neutralization of lysosomal pH resulted in increased ferritin and enhanced cytoplasmic Fe(2+) depletion. Similarly, direct Fe(2+) chelation also resulted in aggravated Mn(2+)-mediated JNK phosphorylation, while Fe(2+) repletion protected cells, and this occurs via the ASK1-thioredoxin pathway. Taken together, our study presents the novel findings that Mn(2+) cytotoxicity involves the depletion of the cytoplasmic Fe(2+) pool, and the increase in autophagy-lysosome activity is important to maintain Fe(2+) homeostasis. Thus, Fe(2+) supplementation could have potential applications in the prevention and treatment of Mn(2+)-mediated toxicity. |
