• Manganese Exposure May Be Linked to Parkinson’s Development, Study Suggests March 18, 2019 Exposure to the metal manganese may lead to the development of Parkinson’s disease by promoting the release from nerve cells of alpha-synuclein, the subsequent aggregation of which causes inflammation and neurodegeneration, according to a study. The study, “Manganese promotes the aggregation and prion-like cell-to-cell exosomal transmission of α-synuclein,” was published in the journal Science Signaling. Increasing studies have reported that aggregated…
