Manganese (Mn) is a trace element involved in various physiological processes, but overexposure to Mn is associated with neurodegenerative disorders and neuronal apoptosis. The mechanisms of Mn-induced neuronal apoptosis include reactive oxygen species generation, neuroinflammation, protein accumulation, endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress), and autophagy. ER stress and autophagy both have dual roles in cell protection and injury, and their relationship in Mn-induced neurotoxicity is still unclear. This review discusses the mechanisms and connections between ER stress, autophagy, and apoptosis, providing a new perspective on Mn-induced neuronal apoptosis and neurodegenerative diseases.
Manganese (Mn) is an essential trace element that participates in various physiological and pathological processes. However, epidemiological observations indicate that overexposure to Mn is strongly associated with neurodegenerative disorders and has been recognized as a potential risk factor of neuronal apoptosis. Many mechanisms are involved in the pathogenesis of Mn-induced neuronal apoptosis, such as reactive oxygen species generation, neuroinflammation reactions, protein accumulation, endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress), and autophagy, all of which collectively accelerate the process of nerve cell damage. As sophisticated cellular processes for maintaining intracellular homeostasis, ER-mediated unfolded protein response and autophagy both play bilateral roles including cell protection and cell injury under pathophysiological conditions, which might interact with each other. Although emerging evidence suggests that ER stress is involved in regulating the compensatory activation of autophagy to promote cell survival, the inherent relationship between ER stress and autophagy on Mn-induced neurotoxicity remains obscure. Here, our review focuses on discussing the existing mechanisms and connections between ER stress, autophagy, and apoptosis, which provide a new perspective on Mn-induced neuronal apoptosis, and the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases.
