Manganese is an essential trace metal which is both absorbed and excreted by the alimentary tract. Manganese is present in minute amounts in various regions of the brain. It is known that manganese deficiency, while rare in humans, enhances the susceptibility to seizures.'In a number of species, manganese deficiency during the postnatal period elicits a congenital irreversible ataxia. 2 By contrast, manganese toxicity has been extensively d~ cumented.~.~ The initial damage in early manganese toxicity appears to result from a biochemical defect in the metabolism of neurotransmitters, including dopamine, serotonin, and y-amino-n-butyric acid.* s3 With progression of manganese toxicity, histopathological lesions, not unlike those of Parkinson's disease, appear in the brain, causing a permanent neurological disorder. 2-3Manganese is transported across the blood-brain barrier by a saturable process., Astrocytes also take up manganese by a specific high affinity transport~ ystem.~ An interesting feature of the tissue distribution of manganese is that glial cells, but not neuronal cells, concentrate manganese an order of magnitude higher than can be accounted for by a simple passive diff~ sion.~ Of the intracellular organelles, mitochondria are the primary site within which manganese is stored.* In this communication, we report the results of our investigation on the mechanism by which manganese enters PC-12 cells, and the subsequent effects of intracel-Mar manganese on other ion transport processes.
