Molecular determinants of magnesium homeostasis: insights from human disease Alexander RT; Hoenderop JG; Bindels RJJ Am Soc Nephrol 2008[Aug]; 19 (8): 1451-8The past decade has witnessed multiple advances in our understanding of magnesium (Mg(2+)) homeostasis. The discovery that mutations in claudin-16/paracellin-1 or claudin-19 are responsible for familial hypomagnesemia with hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis provided insight into the molecular mechanisms governing paracellular transport of Mg(2+). Our understanding of the transcellular movement of Mg(2+) was similarly enhanced by the realization that defects in transient receptor potential melastatin 6 (TRPM6) cause hypomagnesemia with secondary hypocalcemia. This channel regulates the apical entry of Mg(2+) into epithelia. In so doing, TRPM6 alters whole-body Mg(2+) homeostasis by controlling urinary excretion. Consequently, investigation into the regulation of TRPM6 has increased. Acid-base status, 17beta estradiol, and the immunosuppressive agents FK506 and cyclosporine affect plasma Mg(2+) levels by altering TRPM6 expression. A mutation in epithelial growth factor is responsible for isolated autosomal recessive hypomagnesemia, and epithelial growth factor activates TRPM6. A defect in the gamma-subunit of the Na,K-ATPase causes isolated dominant hypomagnesemia by altering TRPM6 activity through a decrease in the driving force for apical Mg(2+) influx. We anticipate that the next decade will provide further detail into the control of the gatekeeper TRPM6 and, therefore, overall whole-body Mg(2+) balance.|*Homeostasis[MESH]|*Metabolic Diseases[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Bone and Bones/metabolism[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Intestinal Mucosa/metabolism[MESH]|Kidney/*metabolism[MESH]|Magnesium/*metabolism[MESH]|TRPM Cation Channels/*metabolism[MESH] |
