In contrast, rotenone and MPP+ did not seem to alter mtDNA levels.
Northern blotting was used to examine the expression of mRNAs encoding transferrin receptor (TfR), which is regulated by cytosolic aconitase.

17469137 Crooks DR, Ghosh MC, Braun-Sommargren M, Rouault TA, Smith DR: Manganese targets m-aconitase and activates iron regulatory protein 2 in AF5 GABAergic cells. J Neurosci Res. 2007 Jun;85(8):1797-809.

Using the AF5 neural-derived cell line, which displays GABAergic properties, we showed that Mn significantly increased glutamate release to 174%-214% of that of the control and that the effects of Mn exposure on the metabolism of glutamate, glutamine, alanine, and GABA resembled the effects of fluorocitrate, an inhibitor of aconitase, but not the effects of other toxicants including paraquat, rotenone, or 3-nitropropionic acid.
RNA mobility shift assay and Western blot showed that Mn treatment caused c-aconitase to be converted to iron regulatory protein 1 (IRP1) and increased the abundance of IRP2, leading to reduced H-ferritin expression, increased transferrin receptor expression, and increased uptake of transferrin.
