摘要
It is known that hyperaldosteronism has been associated with magnesium deficiency, yet there are no data on the intracellular concentration of ionized magnesium ([Mg(2+)(i)]) in subjects with primary aldosteronism (PA). We measured intralymphocyte free magnesium ([Mg(2+)(i)]) and intralymphocyte free calcium ([Ca(2+)(i)]) in 16 patients with PA and 26 normotensive control subjects (NCs). [Mg(2+)(i)] and [Ca(2+)(i)] were also measured in blood lymphocytes incubated in vitro with aldosterone, according to a fluorimetric method. In subjects with PA, [Mg(2+)(i)] was significantly lower than that in NCs (mean+/-SD; PA 203+/-56 micromol/L, NCs 291+/-43 micromol/L, 95% confidence interval 57 to 119, P=0.001). In the patients, [Ca(2+)(i)] did not prove to be statistically different from that of NCs (mean+/-SD; PA 47.2+/-10.6 nmol/L, NCs 53.2+/-11 nmol/L). The lymphocytes exposed to the action of aldosterone showed a significant reduction in [Mg(2+)(i)] (n=15, NCs 271+/-28 micromol/L, aldosterone treatment 188+/-39 micromol/L, P=0.001, 95% confidence interval 57 to 108). The dose-effect curve of aldosterone on [Mg(2+)(i)] showed an EC(50) value of approximately 0.5 to 1 nmol/L aldosterone. The reduction in [Mg(2+)(i)] mediated by aldosterone is antagonized by the receptor inhibitor of aldosterone; it is inhibited by inhibitors of protein synthesis and is not measurable when the lymphocytes are incubated in an Na(+)-free medium. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that aldosterone affects the cellular homeostasis of magnesium, probably through modification of the activity of the Na(+)-Mg(2+) antiporter.
