| Abstract | Excessive manganese (Mn) exposure can lead to oxidative injury. Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) exerts an antioxidant response toward various environmental toxicants in the brain. However, the role of Nrf2 against Mn-induced oxidative injury remains largely unexplored. This study investigated the role of melatonin (MLT), an agent that was recently shown to induce the activation of the Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1)–Nrf2–antioxidant response elements (ARE) pathway against manganism. Mice were randomly divided into six groups, including control, 12.5, 25, 50 mg/kg MnCl$_{2}$, MLT control, and MLT + 50 mg/kg MnCl$_{2}$. The following were determined: behavioral activity; pathological changes; immunofluorescence staining of Neuronal Nuclei and glial fibrillary acidic protein; cell apoptosis; the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione (GSH); the immunohistochemical expression; and the protein levels of Nrf2, Keap1, and downstream enzymes. Mn-induced motor disorders, pathological damage, neuron degeneration, astrocytes activation, apoptosis, ROS and MDA generation, and GSH depletion. Nrf2, keap1, heme oxygenase-1 and NAD(P)H dehydrogenase, and quinone 1 showed a biphasic expression trend, which was most evidenced in the 12.5 mg/kg MnCl$_{2}$ group. Changes in γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase, glutathione peroxidase 1, glutathionine S-transferase, glutathione reductase, and superoxide dismutase decreased in a concentration-dependent manner as a result of Mn exposure. MLT antagonized oxidative injury through the activation of the Keap1–Nrf2–ARE signaling pathway. In conclusion, disturbance of the Keap1–Nrf2–ARE signaling pathway partly caused oxidative injury. MLT can activate Nrf2 and its downstream enzymes and reverse Mn-induced oxidative injury. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
