Quantitative manganese (Mn2+) uptake provides measures of neuronal and glial activities making MEMRI a valuable test for assessment of neurodegenerative processes. However, the prolonged half-life of Mn2+ in brain (5174 days) limits serial quantitative MR assessments. Previous studies have suggested that N-acetyl-para-aminosalicylic acid (AcPAS), a chelater of manganese may provide an answer. Thus, we determined whether AcPAS could affect Mn2+ enhancement decline and permit its frequent administration for longitudinal studies, PBS used as control. The results suggest that the chelation by AcPAS interfere with the interaction of water molecules and Mn2+ ions, and therefore suppresses Mn2+ T1 shortening effect.
