The dithiocarbamate fungicide maneb (MB) has attracted interest due to increasing concern of the negative health effects of pesticides, as well as its association with Parkinson's disease (PD). Our laboratory has previously reported distinct phenotypic changes of neuroblastoma cells exposed to acute, sub-toxic levels of MB, including decreased mitochondrial respiration, altered lactate dynamics, and metabolic stress. In this study, we aimed to further define the specific molecular mechanisms of MB toxicity through the comparison of several thiol-containing compounds and their effects on cellular energy metabolism and thiol redox nodes.

Previous studies in our laboratory have shown that ethylene bisdithiocarbamate (EBDC) fungicides Maneb and Mancozeb are equipotent gastrointestinal toxicants that produce cell loss and metal accumulation within HT-29 and Caco2 colon cells. Nabam, MnCl2, CuCl2 and ZnCl2 exposure produced no loss of viability up to 200 μM and increases in metal levels were noted but not to the same extent as Maneb and Mancozeb. EBDC exposure caused increases in copper levels (20-200 μM).

Patch testing showed strong allergic patch test reactions to 2 of the commercially available preparations used (Dithane Ultra and Polyram WG). Further patch tests showed allergic patch test reactions to mancozeb (0.

Nabam, an ethylenebisdithiocarbamate (EBDC), is an agricultural fungicide. Ethylenethiourea (ETU), widely used in the rubber industry, is a degradation and byproduct of metabolism and of storage and production of EBDCs. Kidney function and morphology, and urinary excretion of ETU, were studied in rats exposed to nabam or ETU in drinking water for 28 days.

The toxicity of seven dithiocarbamates and interactions occurring with copper were studied with the ciliate protozoan Colpidium campylum. No product was toxic at 0.1 mg liter-1.
