Striatal Dopamine Dynamics Upon Manganese Accumulation
… amounts leads to a neurological disorder termed manganism. Due to its symptomatic similarity to Parkinson's disease, as well its preferential accumulation in dopamine rich brain regions, alterations in the dopamine system are implicated in the onset of manganism. In my research, Mn overexposure …

The Effect Of An Intermittent Manganese (ii) Exposure On The Striatal Dopamine System
… Mn results in a neurological disorder known as manganism, which is associated with marked motor impairments that are similar to Parkinson's disease. The similarities between manganism and Parkinson's disease are most likely due to dopaminergic alterations in the basal ganglia. Understanding the …

Role of N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) epitranscriptomic mechanisms in manganese-induced astrocyte inflammation
… known to cause a type of Parkinsonism called manganism. First observed in Mn ore crushers, the overexposure of Mn produces neurological signs and symptoms, predominantly motor impairment but can also elicit neuropsychiatric effects. The motor impairment is resulting from neuronal dysfunction …
