Curcumin protects against manganese-induced neurotoxicity in rat by regulating oxidative stress-related gene expression via H3K27 acetylation

Long-term manganese exposure causes a neurodegenerative disorder referred to as manganese poisoning, but the mechanism remains unclear and no specific treatment is available. Oxidative stress is widely recognised as one of the main causes of manganese-induced neurotoxicity. In recent years, the role...

description Long-term manganese exposure causes a neurodegenerative disorder referred to as manganese poisoning, but the mechanism remains unclear and no specific treatment is available. Oxidative stress is widely recognised as one of the main causes of manganese-induced neurotoxicity. In recent years, the role of histone acetylation in neurodegenerative diseases has been widely concerned. curcumin is a natural polyphenol compound extracted from the rhizome of turmeric and exhibits both antioxidant and neuroprotective properties. Therefore, we aimed to investigate whether and how curcumin protects against manganese-induced neurotoxicity from the perspective of histone acetylation, based on the reversibility of histone acetylation modification. In this study, rats were treated with or without curcumin and subjected to long-term manganese exposure. Results that treatment of manganese decreased the protein expression of H3K18 acetylation and H3K27 acetylation at the promoters of oxidative stress-related genes and inhibited the expression of these genes. Nevertheless, curcumin increased the H3K27 acetylation level at the manganese superoxide dismutase (SOD2) gene promoter and promoted the expression of SOD2 gene. Oxidative damage in the rat striatum as well as learning and memory dysfunction were ameliorated after curcumin treatment. Taken together, our results suggest that the regulation of oxidative stress by histone acetylation may be a key mechanism of manganese-induced neurotoxicity. In addition, curcumin ameliorates Mn-induced neurotoxicity may be due to alleviation of oxidative damage mediated by increased activation of H3K27 acetylation at the SOD2 gene promoter.
