Popis: | The relationships between the neurotoxicant manganese (Mn), dopaminergic pathology, and parkinsonism remain unclear. Therefore, we used [11C](N-methyl)benperidol (NMB) positron emission tomography to investigate the associations between Mn exposure, striatal and extrastriatal D2 dopamine receptors (D2R), and motor function in 54 workers with a range of Mn exposure. Cumulative Mn exposure was estimated from work histories, and all workers were examined by a movement specialist and completed a Grooved Pegboard test (GPT). NMB D2R nondisplaceable binding potentials (BPND) were calculated for brain regions of interest. We identified 2 principal components (PCs) in a PC analysis which explained 66.8% of the regional NMB BPND variance (PC1 = 55.4%; PC2 = 11.4%). PC1 was positively correlated with NMB binding in all regions and inversely correlated with age. PC2 was driven by NMB binding in 7 brain regions (all p |
