Intracellular free calcium content plays a role in low magnesium-induced increases in prostacyclin production

Abstract: In a previous study, we found that magnesium deficiency stimulated prostacyclin production and suggested that this stimulation resulted from an enhanced Ca 2+ influx induced by magnesium deficiency. In this study, we further examined prostacyclin generation in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells after intracellular free calcium content ([Ca 2+ ] i) was altered by addition of diltiazem, nifedipine, verapamil, sodium cyanide (NaCN), ruthenium red or quinidine to a low magnesium medium. The results sh… Show more

“…A similar situation was observed for Ca 2+ [20]. Moreover, Mg 2+ strongly interacts with Ca 2+ and K + , the deficiency-excess of one cation influencing the effects of the others [5,12,22,26]. A large part of the population is confronting stress, sleeping disorders and chronic fatigue.…”

“…More studies are required to understand whether Mg deficiency induces the synthesis of these lipids in HMEC. At the moment, only prostacyclins are known to be induced by exposure of endothelial cells to low Mg [32]. Recently, the serine/threonine phosphatase PPM1B [PP (protein phosphatase), Mg 2+ /Mn 2+ dependent, 1B] has emerged as a novel selective modulator of PPAR␥ activity [33].…”

“…Vascular endothelial cells play an important role in tumor invasion and metastasis . The major product of endothelial cell is PGI 2 , which is a strong vasodilator and the most powerful inhibitor of platelet aggregation . Studies have shown that the PGI 2 and PGI 2 analogs can exert an inhibitory effect on lymphogenous and hematogenous tumor metastasis .…”
