    Abstract:
    Exposure to excessive manganese (Mn) is toxic to humans and animals. However, the toxic effects and mechanisms of excessive Mn influencing the vertebrates have been highly overlooked. In the present study, dietary Mn overload significantly increased hepatic lipid and Mn contents, decreased superoxide dismutase 2 (Sod2) activity, increased the Sod2 acetylation level, and induced mitochondrial dysfunction; Mn induced mitochondrial dysfunction through Mtf1/sirtuin 3 (Sirt3)-mediated acetylation of Sod2 at the sites K55 and K70. Meanwhile, mitochondrial oxidative stress was involved in Mn-induced lipotoxicity. Mechanistically, Mn-induced lipotoxicity was via oxidative stress-induced Hsf1 nucleus translocation and its DNA binding capacity to the regions of a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor g (pparg) promoter, which in turn induced the transcription of lipogenic-related target genes. For the first time, our study demonstrated that Mn-induced hepatic lipotoxicity via a mitochondrial oxidative stress-dependent Hsf1/Pparg pathway and Mtf1/sirt3-mediated Sod2 acetylation participated in mitochondrial dysfunction. Considering that lipid metabolism and lipotoxicity are widely used as the biomarkers for environmental assessments of pollutants, our study provided innovative and important insights into Mn toxicological and environmental evaluation in aquatic environments.
