摘要：This study aimed to clarify the regulatory mechanism of Mg homeostasis on administration of excessive Mg in rats. Six-week-old male Wistar rats ( n =30) were fed a Mg-deficient diet (D) or a control diet (M) in addition to which they received subcutaneous injections of saline (S) or additional Mg (M) for 14 d. Feces and urine were collected from the rats for 4 d every week. Between the MS and MM rats and the DS and DM rats, the injection of additional Mg increased Mg retention, but intestinal Mg absorption did not differ. Urinary Mg excretion in the MM rats was significantly greater than that in the MS rats, but fecal Mg excretion did not increase. Mg retention in the DM rats was approximately 30% of that in the MS rats, and urinary Mg excretion did not differ between the 2 groups, although the serum Mg in DM rats was low. There was no significant difference in the femoral Mg between the MM and MS groups. The physiological Mg pool in the bone appears to be limited. Therefore, there is no physiological Mg pool for the storage of excessive Mg, and there appears to be no negative feedback mechanism on intestinal Mg absorption upon administration of excessive Mg in the rats. In conclusion, it appears that the kidney is the only organ that regulates Mg in the body; apart from this, regulatory mechanisms corresponding to the physiological Mg requirement do not exist or are weak.
