UF neuroscientists identify mechanism, potential treatment target for overexposure to manganese
By Michelle Koidin Jaffee University of Florida neuroscientists have identified an underlying mechanism for how overexposure to manganese, a hard metal often used to produce steel, could induce dysfunction of dopamine neurons. The preclinical mouse-model study, published in the Journal of Neuroscience, describes how impairment of dopamine transmission caused by…
