Quantifying manganese in lymphocytes to assess manganese nutritional status

To clarify whether manganese nutritional status is better reflected by the manganese concentration in lymphocytes or in whole blood, we injected manganese solutions intravenously into manganese-deficient rats and determined manganese concentrations in lymphocytes, whole blood, and various tissues. The manganese concentrations in lymphocytes and tissues, but not in whole blood, were significantly less in manganese-deficient rats than in normal rats. These low values could be prevented by intravenous injection of manganese in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that, for assessment of manganese nutritional status, measurement of manganese in lymphocytes is better than that in whole blood.
