In Vivo Inhibition of Serum Dopamine-β-Hydroxylase by CaNa2 EDTA injection

Abstract: 1 In humans CaNa 2EDTA increases urinary excretion of lead as well as that of essential metals such as zinc, ferrum and manganese but not that of copper. 2 We studied the effect of CaNa2EDTA injection on serum dopamine-β-hydroxylase, a copper-dependent enzyme, in three male lead welders hospitalized for suspected lead poisoning. 3 injection of CaNa 2EDTA (1000 mg i.v.) resulted in rapid reduction of seru… Show more

“…Consequently, compounds with Fe chelating properties or those interfering with the Fenton’s reaction, such as polyphenol compounds, can be of potential pharmacological importance in the treatment of Mn toxicity [194196]. Indeed, the treatment with a calcium disodium salt of the chelator EDTA (CaNa 2 EDTA) reduced Mn-induced DA autooxidation in vitro [197], enhanced urinary excretion of Mn in humans [198] and reduced Mn levels in the brain and liver of Mn-exposed rats [199]. However, there is still controversy regarding the amelioration provided by this chelating therapy [200, 201].…”

“…Polyaminocarboxylic acids mobilize Mn from internal organs, enhance its excretion, and prevent mortality induced by MnCl 2 in poisoned animals (Rodier et al 1954; Tandon and Khandelwal 1982). CaNa 2 EDTA decreases liver and brain Mn levels in Mn-intoxicated rats (Kosai and Boyle 1956); it also decreases Mn-induced dopamine autoxidation in vitro (Nachtman et al 1987) and inhibits serum dopamine- β -hydroxylase in humans (De Paris and Caroldi 1994), potentially preserving dopamine levels. EDTA and CaNa 2 EDTA increase urinary Mn excretion in humans (Cook et al 1974; Discalzi et al 2000; Herrero Hernández et al 2006; Sata et al 1998) and have been used with dubious justification to “prevent” occupational manganism (Ritter and Marti-Feced 1960; Wynter 1962).…”

“…Proper use of its calcium disodium salt (CaNa 2 EDTA) by trained personnel on a hospital basis and careful examination of the patients, as well as cautious management of the administration dosage, schedule and procedures have demonstrated protection of renal function and tissue integrity in Mn-induced parkinsonism [ 170 ]. Furthermore, CaNa 2 EDTA treatment reduced Mn-induced dopamine autooxidation in vitro [ 171 ], enhanced urinary excretion of Mn in humans [ 172 ] and reduced Mn levels in the brain and liver of Mn-exposed rats [ 173 ]. Nevertheless, other studies involving Mn-induced parkinsonism patients with extremely high occupational exposures have reported lack of clinical amelioration [ 174 , 175 , 176 ] or relinquished clinical amelioration [ 177 ] upon CaNa 2 EDTA treatment.…”
