| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To assess the cardiovascular function of chronic magnesium (Mg) deficient rat and effect of supplementation with Mg, we generated chronic Mg deficient rat model. In chronic Mg deficient rat, cardiovascular function was decreased. Cardiac and vascular dysfunctions were caused by the mitochondrial dysfunction and by the failure of intracellular signaling mechanism through the G protein-coupled receptor, respectively. Mg supplementation will be effective in the improvement of cardiovascular dysfunction by Mg deficiency. It is necessary to detailed studies about the cardiovascular dysfunction and Mg supplementation by Mg deficiency.
