Mg is an essential mineral with pleotropic impacts on cellular physiology and functions. It acts as a cofactor of several important enzymes, as a regulator of ion channels such as voltage-dependent Ca channels and K channels and on Ca-binding proteins. In general, Mg is considered as the main intracellular antagonist of Ca, which is an essential secondary messenger initiating or regulating a great number of cellular functions. This review examines the effects of Mg on mitochondrial functions with a particular focus on energy metabolism, mitochondrial Ca handling, and apoptosis.
镁是一种对细胞生理和功能具有多效性影响的必需矿物质。它作为几种重要酶的辅助因子,作为离子通道(如电压依赖性钙通道和钾通道)以及钙结合蛋白的调节剂。一般来说,镁被认为是钙的主要细胞内拮抗剂,钙是启动或调节大量细胞功能的必需第二信使。本综述探讨了镁对线粒体功能的影响,特别关注能量代谢、线粒体钙处理和细胞凋亡。
