代谢
锰主要通过摄入被吸收,但也可以通过吸入。它在血浆中与α-2-巨球蛋白、白蛋白或转铁蛋白结合,并分布到大脑和所有其他哺乳动物组织,尽管它倾向于在肝脏、胰腺和肾脏中积累更多。锰能够存在于多种氧化状态,并且据信在体内会发生氧化状态的变化。锰的氧化状态可以影响组织的毒代动力学行为,甚至可能影响毒性。锰主要通过粪便排出。硒可以通过吸入和摄入被吸收,而一些硒化合物也可能通过皮肤吸收。一旦进入体内,硒主要分布到肝脏和肾脏。硒是一种必需的微量元素,是谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶、碘甲状腺原氨酸5'-脱碘酶和硫氧还蛋白还原酶的组成部分。有机硒首先代谢为无机硒。无机硒逐步还原为中间氢硒化物,然后转化为硒磷酸和硒半胱氨酸tRNA并被结合到硒蛋白中,或者转化为硒化物的甲基化代谢物后排入尿液中。元素硒在排出前也会甲基化。硒主要通过尿液和粪便排出,但某些硒化合物也可能通过呼出。
Manganese is absorbed mainly via ingestion, but can also be inhaled. It binds to alpha-2-macroglobulin, albumin, or transferrin in the plasma and is distributed to the brain and all other mammalian tissues, though it tends to accumulate more in the liver, pancreas, and kidney. Manganese is capable of existing in a number of oxidation states and is believed to undergo changes in oxidation state within the body. Manganese oxidation state can influence tissue toxicokinetic behavior, and possibly toxicity. Manganese is excreted primarily in the faeces. Selenium may be absorbed through inhalation and ingestion, while some selenium compounds may also be absorbed dermally. Once in the body, selenium is distributed mainly to the liver and kidney. Selenium is an essential micronutrient and is a component of glutathione peroxidase, iodothyronine 5'-deiodinases, and thioredoxin reductase. Organic selenium is first metabolized into inorganic selenium. Inorganic selenium is reduced stepwise to the intermediate hydrogen selenide, which is either incorporated into selenoproteins after being transformed to selenophosphate and selenocysteinyl tRNA or excreted into the urine after being transformed into methylated metabolites of selenide. Elemental selenium is also methylated before excretion. Selenium is primarily eliminated in the urine and feces, but certain selenium compounds may also be exhaled. (L619, L228)
