*Preprint, not peer-reviewed.
*In summary, our results not only support neuroprotective effects of nicotine and butyrate in countering Fe and Mn toxicities but indicate a synergistic protection by combination of the two. Moreover, distinct mechanisms of action for each metal, i.e., nicotinic receptor for nicotine and FA3R for butyrate are indicated. Further exploitation of mechanisms of action of butyrate and nicotine may provide novel targets for metal toxicities and/or amelioration of neurodegenerative diseases.
