Abstract
The prevalence of CKD may be higher in patients with cancer than in those without due to the addition of cancer-specific risk factors to those already present for CKD. In this review, we describe the evaluation of kidney function in patients undergoing anticancer drug therapy. When anticancer drug therapy is administered, kidney function is evaluated to (1) set the dose of renally excretable drugs, (2) detect kidney disease associated with the cancer and its treatment, and (3) obtain baseline values for long-term monitoring. Owing to some requirements for use in clinical practice, a GFR estimation method such as the Cockcroft-Gault, MDRD, CKD-EPI, and the Japanese Society of Nephrology's GFR estimation formula has been developed that is simple, inexpensive, and provides rapid results. However, an important clinical question is whether they can be used as a method of GFR evaluation in patients with cancer. When designing a drug dosing regimen in consideration of kidney function, it is important to make a comprehensive judgment, recognizing that there are limitations regardless of which estimation formula is used or if GFR is directly measured. Although CTCAEs are commonly used as criteria for evaluating kidney disease-related adverse events that occur during anticancer drug therapy, a specialized approach using KDIGO criteria or other criteria is required when nephrologists intervene in treatment. Each drug is associated with the different disorders related to the kidney. And various risk factors for kidney disease associated with each anticancer drug therapy.

Abstract
Mg2+ is essential for many cellular and physiological processes, including muscle contraction, neuronal activity, and metabolism. Consequently, the blood Mg2+ concentration is tightly regulated by balanced intestinal Mg2+ absorption, renal Mg2+ excretion, and Mg2+ storage in bone and soft tissues. In recent years, the development of novel transgenic animal models and identification of Mendelian disorders has advanced our current insight in the molecular mechanisms of Mg2+ reabsorption in the kidney. In the proximal tubule, Mg2+ reabsorption is dependent on paracellular permeability by claudin-2/12. In the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop, the claudin-16/19 complex provides a cation-selective pore for paracellular Mg2+ reabsorption. The paracellular Mg2+ reabsorption in this segment is regulated by the Ca2+-sensing receptor, parathyroid hormone, and mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling. In the distal convoluted tubule, the fine tuning of Mg2+ reabsorption takes place by transcellular Mg2+ reabsorption via transient receptor potential melastatin-like types 6 and 7 (TRPM6/TRPM7) divalent cation channels. Activity of TRPM6/TRPM7 is dependent on hormonal regulation, metabolic activity, and interacting proteins. Basolateral Mg2+ extrusion is still poorly understood but is probably dependent on the Na+ gradient. Cyclin M2 and SLC41A3 are the main candidates to act as Na+/Mg2+ exchangers. Consequently, disturbances of basolateral Na+/K+ transport indirectly result in impaired renal Mg2+ reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule. Altogether, this review aims to provide an overview of the molecular mechanisms of Mg2+ reabsorption in the kidney, specifically focusing on transgenic mouse models and human hereditary diseases.

Reactive Oxygen Species Downregulate Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 6 Expression Mediated by the Elevation of miR-24-3p in Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells. Cells 2021; 10:cells10081893.

Abstract
Background: A low level of serum magnesium ion (Mg2+) is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). However, the molecular mechanism of Mg2+ deficiency has not been fully clarified. The current study sought to assesses the effect of reactive oxygen species on the expression of Mg2+ channels and miRNA. Methods: The expression of Mg2+ channels and miRNA were examined by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Intracellular Mg2+ concentration was measured by Magnesium Green fluorescence measurement. Results: The mRNA level of transient receptor potential melastatin 6 (TRPM6), which functions as Mg2+ influx channel in the distal convoluted tubule (DCT) of the kidney, was decreased by glycated albumin (GA), but not by insulin in rat renal tubule-derived NRK-52E cells. The mRNA levels of TRPM7, a homologue of TRPM6, and CNNM2, a Mg2+ efflux transporter located at the basolateral membrane of DCT, were changed by neither GA nor insulin. The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was increased by GA. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) dose-dependently decreased TRPM6 mRNA, but it inversely increased the reporter activity of TRPM6. H2O2 accelerated the degradation of TRPM6 mRNA in actinomycin D assay without affecting TRPM7 and CNNM2 mRNA expressions. Nine miRNAs were considered as candidates for the regulator of stability of TRPM6 mRNA. Among them, miR-24-3p expression was increased by H2O2. The H2O2-induced reduction of TRPM6 mRNA was rescued by miR-24-3p siRNA. Magnesium Green fluorescence measurement showed that Mg2+ influx is suppressed by H2O2, which was rescued by an antioxidant and miR-24-3p siRNA. Conclusions: We suggest that GA decreases TRPM6 expression mediated by the elevation of ROS and miR-24-3p in renal tubular epithelial cells of T2D.

Abstract
Hypomagnesemia is a common medical problem that contributes to the morbidity and mortality of patients with cancer. This review summarizes magnesium physiology and highlights the mechanisms underlying magnesium disturbances due to cancer and cancer treatment. The causes of hypomagnesemia can be categorized according to the pathophysiologic mechanism: decreased intake, transcellular shift, gastrointestinal losses, and kidney losses. Patients with cancer are at risk for opportunistic infections, frequently experience cardiovascular complications, and often receive classes of medications that cause or exacerbate hypomagnesemia. Also, cancer-specific therapies are responsible for hypomagnesemia, including platinum-based chemotherapy, anti-EGF receptor mAbs, human EGF receptor-2 target inhibitors (HER2), and calcineurin inhibitors. Urinary indices, such as the fractional excretion of magnesium, can provide useful information about the etiology. The management of hypomagnesemia depends on the magnitude of hypomagnesemia and the underlying cause. We recommended checking serum magnesium at the beginning of treatment and as part of routine monitoring throughout cancer treatment. Opportunities exist for potential research and practice improvement, including further characterization of hypomagnesemia regarding the clinical effect on cancer outcomes, preventing hypomagnesemia in patients receiving high-risk anticancer agents, and developing effective therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Ion channels are transmembrane proteins whose canonical function is the transport of ions across the plasma membrane to regulate cell membrane potential and play an essential role in neural communication, nerve conduction, and muscle contraction. However, over the last few years, non-canonical functions have been identified for many channels, having active roles in phagocytosis, invasiveness, proliferation, among others. The participation of some channels in cell proliferation has raised the question of whether they may play an active role in mitosis. There are several reports showing the participation of channels during interphase, however, the direct participation of ion channels in mitosis has received less attention. In this article, we summarize the current evidence on the participation of ion channels in mitosis. We also summarize some tools that would allow the study of ion channels and cell cycle regulatory molecules in individual cells during mitosis.

Abstract
The identification of genes causing inherited kidney diseases yielded crucial insights in the molecular basis of disease and improved our understanding of physiological processes that operate in the kidney. Monogenic kidney disorders are caused by mutations in genes coding for a large variety of proteins including receptors, channels and transporters, enzymes, transcription factors, and structural components, operating in specialized cell types that perform highly regulated homeostatic functions. Common variants in some of these genes are also associated with complex traits, as evidenced by genome-wide association studies in the general population. In this review, we discuss how the molecular genetics of inherited disorders affecting different tubular segments of the nephron improved our understanding of various transport processes and of their involvement in homeostasis, while providing novel therapeutic targets. These include inherited disorders causing a dysfunction of the proximal tubule (renal Fanconi syndrome), with emphasis on epithelial differentiation and receptor-mediated endocytosis, or affecting the reabsorption of glucose, the handling of uric acid, and the reabsorption of sodium, calcium, and magnesium along the kidney tubule.

Abstract
Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are intracellular molecules regulating a wide range of cellular functions, including proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, cytoskeleton remodeling and cytokine production. MAPK activity has been shown in normal kidney, and its over-activation has been demonstrated in several renal diseases. The extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases (ERK 1,2) signalling pathway is the first described MAPK signaling. Intensive investigations have demonstrated that it participates in the regulation of ureteric bud branching, a fundamental process in establishing final nephron number; in addition, it is also involved in the differentiation of the nephrogenic mesenchyme, indicating a key role in mammalian kidney embryonic development. In the present manuscript, we show that ERK1,2 signalling mediates several cellular functions also in mature kidney, describing its role along the nephron and demonstrating whether it contributes to the regulation of ion channels and transporters implicated in acid-base and electrolytes homeostasis.

Abstract
A chronic magnesium deficiency may be one of the causes of lifestyle-related diseases such as hypertension and diabetes. Serum Mg2+ concentration is strictly controlled by the reabsorption pathway in the renal tubules, but little is known about how Mg2+ reabsorption is upregulated. We searched for food compounds which can increase the expression levels of Mg2+ transport carriers including transient receptor potential melastatin 6 (TRPM6) channel and cyclin M2 (CNNM2). Sodium citrate (SC) increased the mRNA levels of TRPM6 and CNNM2 in renal tubular epithelial NRK-52E cells. The SC-induced elevation of TRPM6 was inhibited by U0126, a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitor, but the CNNM2 was not. SC increased the levels of p-ERK1/2 and p-c-Fos, which were inhibited by U0126. SC induced alkalization of culture medium. Both SC and alkalization enhanced Mg2+ influx, which was inhibited by U0126 and introduction of TRPM6 siRNA. The reporter activity of TRPM6 was increased by SC and alkalization, which was suppressed by mutation in an AP-1-binding site. The SC-induced elevation of p-ERK1/2 and p-EGFR was inhibited by diphenylene iodonium, a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase inhibitor, and erlotinib, an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor. SC did not change the level of acetyl histone H3, but increased the association of c-Fos with the promoter region of TRPM6. These results suggest that SC increases TRPM6 expression and Mg2+ influx mediated by the activation of NADPH oxidase and an EGFR/ERK/c-Fos pathway in the renal tubules.

Abstract
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is implicated in various malignancies. The past decade has seen the development and widespread use of EGFR inhibitors for the successful treatment of such cancers. Available EGFR inhibitors include small molecule tyrosine-kinase inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies. Class-related renal adverse events result in dual toxicity including tubular/electrolyte disorders and glomerulopathies. Tubular injury is common and mainly due to monoclonal antibodies while glomerulopathy is rare and related to various anti-EGFR agents. The exact pathogenesis of anti-EGFR agents associated with kidney disorders remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
STUDY QUESTION Does mouse endometrial epithelial cells and stromal cells have a similar transient receptor potential (TRP)-channel expression profile and to that found in the human endometrium? SUMMARY ANSWER Mouse endometrial epithelial and stromal cells have a distinct TRP channel expression profile analogous to what has been found in human endometrium, and hence suggests the mouse a good model to investigate the role of TRP channels in reproduction. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY An optimal intercellular communication between epithelial and stromal endometrial cells is crucial for successful reproduction. Members of the TRP family were recently described in the human endometrial stroma; however their functional expression in murine endometrium remains unspecified. Furthermore, epithelial and stromal cells have distinct functions in the reproductive process, implying the possibility for a different expression profile. However, knowledge about the functional expression pattern of TRP channels in either epithelial or stromal cells is not available. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION In this study, the expression pattern of TRP channels in the murine (C57BL/6 J strain) endometrium was investigated and compared to the human expression pattern. Therefore, expression was examined in uterine tissue isolated during the natural estrous cycle (n = 16) or during an induced menstrual cycle using the menstruating mouse model (n = 28). Next, the functional expression of TRP channels was assessed separately in endometrial epithelial and stromal cell populations. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS Quantitative RT-PCR was used to evaluate the relative mRNA expression of TRP channels in murine uterine tissue and cells. To further assess the functional expression in epithelial or stromal cells, primary endometrial cell cultures and Fura2-based calcium-microfluorimetry experiments were performed. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE The expression pattern of TRP channels during the natural estrous cycle or the induced menstrual cycle is analog to what has been shown in human samples. Furthermore, a very distinct expression pattern was observed in epithelial cells compared to stromal cells. Expression of TRPV4, TRPV6 and TRPM6 was significantly higher in epithelial cells whereas TRPV2, TRPC1/4 and TRPC6 were almost exclusively expressed in stromal cells. LARGE SCALE DATA N/A. LIMITATIONS, REASONS FOR CAUTION Although relevant mRNA levels are detected for TRPV6 and TRPM6, and TRPM4, lack of selective, available pharmacology restricted functional analysis of these ion channels. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS Successful reproduction, and more specifically embryo implantation, is a dynamic developmental process that integrates many signaling molecules into a precisely orchestrated program. Here, we describe the expression pattern of TRP channels in mouse endometrium that is similar to human tissue and their restricted functionality in either stromal cells or epithelial cells, suggesting a role in the epithelial-stromal crosstalk. These results will be very helpful to identify key players involved in the signaling cascades required for successful embryo implantation. In addition, these results illustrate that mouse endometrium is a valid representative for human endometrium to investigate TRP channels in the field of reproduction. STUDY FUNDING/COMPETING INTEREST(S) The Research Foundation-Flanders (G.0856.13 N to J.V.); the Research Council of the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (OT/13/113 to J.V. and PF-TRPLe to T.V.); the Planckaert-De Waele fund (to J.V.); Fonds Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek Belgium (to K.D.C. and A.H.).

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg(2+)) is the fourth most abundant cation in the body. Thus, magnesium homeostasis needs to be tightly regulated, and this is facilitated by intestinal absorption and renal excretion. Magnesium absorption is dependent on two concomitant pathways found in both in the intestine and the kidneys: passive paracellular transport via claudins facilitates bulk magnesium absorption, whereas active transcellular pathways mediate the fine-tuning of magnesium absorption. The identification of genes responsible for diseases associated with hypomagnesaemia resulted in the discovery of several magnesiotropic proteins. Claudins 16 and 19 form the tight junction pore necessary for mass magnesium transport. However, most of the causes of genetic hypomagnesaemia can be tracked down to transcellular magnesium transport in the distal convoluted tubule. Within the distal convoluted tubule, magnesium reabsorption is a tightly regulated process that determines the final urine magnesium concentration. Therefore, insufficient magnesium transport in the distal convoluted tubule owing to mutated magnesiotropic proteins inevitably leads to magnesium loss, which cannot be compensated for in downstream tubule segments. Better understanding of the molecular mechanism regulating magnesium reabsorption will give new opportunities for better therapies, perhaps including therapies for patients with chronic renal failure.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of four different laser wavelengths used for low-level laser therapy(LLLT) on healing of mucositis in an animal model of wound healing, by investigating expression of transient receptor potential melastatin(TRPM) ion channels. Forty-five rats were intraperitoneally injected with 100 mg/kg 5-fluorouracil on day 1 and 65 mg/kg on day 3. Superficial scratching on left cheek pouch mucosa was performed on days 3 and 5. After ulcerative mucositis was clinically detected, LLLT was started (660 nm, HELBO; 810 nm, Fotona-XD; 980 nm, ARC-Fox; and 1064 nm, Fidelis-Plus3) at 8 J/cm(2)/day from days 1 to 4. Oval excisional biopsy was performed at the wound site, and expression of TRPM2 to TRPM8 was evaluated. Student's t test was used for evaluation of significance of TRPM gene expression according to "0" value (α = 0.05). In 980-nm group, TRPM4, TRPM6, and TRPM7 were significantly higher than in the control group (p < 0.005). In 660, 810, and 1064 nm groups, only TRPM6 was significantly higher than in control group (p < 0.005). There were no significant differences between control and sham groups (p > 0.05). These findings suggest that expression of TRPM6 gene was significantly affected by irradiation with lasers at different wavelengths, whereas the TRPM4 and TRPM7 genes were only expressed in the 980-nm diode laser group. TRPM6 gene was highly expressed during LLLT, which may lead to accelerated wound healing and tissue repair. In contrast, there was some evidence that the 980-nm diode laser caused increased expression of TRPM4, TRPM6, and TRPM7 which are responsible for stimulation of Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) metabolism, as well as apoptotic pathways of controlled cell death.

Abstract
PKCι is essential for the establishment of epithelial polarity and the normal assembly of tight junctions. We find that PKCι knockdown does not compromise the steady-state distribution of most tight junction proteins but results in increased transepithelial resistance (TER) and decreased paracellular permeability. Analysis of the levels of tight junction components demonstrates that claudin-2 protein levels are decreased. However, other tight junction proteins, such as claudin-1, ZO-1, and occludin, are unchanged. Incubation with an aPKC pseudosubstrate recapitulates the phenotype of PKCι knockdown, including increased TER and decreased levels of claudin-2. In addition, overexpression of PKCι results in increased claudin-2 levels. ELISA and coimmunoprecipitation show that the TGN/endosomal small GTPase Rab14 and PKCι interact directly. Immunolabeling shows that PKCι and Rab14 colocalize in both intracellular puncta and at the plasma membrane and that Rab14 expression is required for normal PKCι distribution in cysts in 3D culture. We showed previously that knockdown of Rab14 results in increased TER and decreased claudin-2. Our results suggest that Rab14 and aPKC interact to regulate trafficking of claudin-2 out of the lysosome-directed pathway.

Abstract
The distal convoluted tubule (DCT) is a short nephron segment, interposed between the macula densa and collecting duct. Even though it is short, it plays a key role in regulating extracellular fluid volume and electrolyte homeostasis. DCT cells are rich in mitochondria, and possess the highest density of Na+/K+-ATPase along the nephron, where it is expressed on the highly amplified basolateral membranes. DCT cells are largely water impermeable, and reabsorb sodium and chloride across the apical membrane via electroneurtral pathways. Prominent among this is the thiazide-sensitive sodium chloride cotransporter, target of widely used diuretic drugs. These cells also play a key role in magnesium reabsorption, which occurs predominantly, via a transient receptor potential channel (TRPM6). Human genetic diseases in which DCT function is perturbed have provided critical insights into the physiological role of the DCT, and how transport is regulated. These include Familial Hyperkalemic Hypertension, the salt-wasting diseases Gitelman syndrome and EAST syndrome, and hereditary hypomagnesemias. The DCT is also established as an important target for the hormones angiotensin II and aldosterone; it also appears to respond to sympathetic-nerve stimulation and changes in plasma potassium. Here, we discuss what is currently known about DCT physiology. Early studies that determined transport rates of ions by the DCT are described, as are the channels and transporters expressed along the DCT with the advent of molecular cloning. Regulation of expression and activity of these channels and transporters is also described; particular emphasis is placed on the contribution of genetic forms of DCT dysregulation to our understanding.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Panitumumab is a human IgG2 mAb against the EGFR, inhibiting tumor cell proliferation, survival and angiogenesis. It has demonstrated clinical efficacy in metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) in combination with chemotherapy in first- and second-line settings and as monotherapy in third-line setting. Recently, mutations in the RAS genes have been shown to be predictive of lack of efficacy, panitumumab should be restricted to patients with RAS wild-type (wt) tumors. AREAS COVERED This review focuses on main efficacy results of panitumumab in metastatic CRC in first-, second- and third-line settings in combination with chemotherapy or as monotherapy. Additionally, we have covered safety aspects of this agent in these indications, especially in K-RAS and all RAS wt patients. These safety aspects refer to the most common toxicities (i.e., acne-like skin rash, diarrhea and hypomagnesaemia). EXPERT OPINION Panitumumab adds to the armamentarium of effective agents in the treatment of metastatic CRC. Due to its human origin, panitumumab is a well-tolerated agent with low rates of infusional reactions. Skin toxicity is frequent and should be pre-emptively treated. Other common toxicities related to panitumumab treatment, such as diarrhea and hypomagnesaemia, should be closely monitored to ensure early treatment or substitution.

Abstract
Members of the epidermal growth factor (EGF)-family bind to ErbB (EGFR)-family receptors that play an important role in the regulation of various fundamental cell processes in many organs including the kidney. In this field, most of the research efforts are focused on the role of EGF-ErbB axis in cancer biology. However, many studies indicate that abnormal ErbB-mediated signaling pathways are critical in the development of renal and cardiovascular pathologies. The kidney is a major site of the EGF-family ligands synthesis, and it has been shown to express all four members of the ErbB receptor family. The study of kidney disease regulation by ErbB receptor ligands has expanded considerably in recent years. In vitro and in vivo studies have provided direct evidence of the role of ErbB signaling in the kidney. Recent advances in the understanding of how the proteins in the EGF-family regulate sodium transport and development of hypertension are specifically discussed here. Collectively, these results suggest that EGF-ErbB signaling pathways could be major determinants in the progress of renal lesions, including its effects on the regulation of sodium reabsorption in collecting ducts.

Abstract
Mammalian cells tightly regulate cellular Mg(2+) content through a variety of transport and buffering mechanisms under the control of various hormones and cellular second messengers. The effect of these hormones and agents results in dynamic changes in the total content of Mg(2+) being transported across the cell membrane and redistributed within cellular compartments. The importance of maintaining proper cellular Mg(2+) content optimal for the activity of various cellular enzymes and metabolic cycles is underscored by the evidence that several diseases are characterized by a loss of Mg(2+) within specific tissues as a result of defective transport, hormonal stimulation, or metabolic impairment. This chapter will review the key mechanisms regulating cellular Mg(2+) homeostasis and their impairments under the most common diseases associated with Mg(2+) loss or deficiency.

Abstract
TRPM7 is a novel magnesium-nucleotide-regulated metal current (MagNuM) channel that is regulated by serum Mg2+ concentrations. Changes in Mg2+ concentration have been shown to alter cell proliferation in various cells; however, the mechanism and the ion channel(s) involved have not yet been identified. Here we demonstrate that TRPM7 is expressed in control and prostate cancer cells. Supplementation of intracellular Mg-ATP or addition of external 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate inhibited MagNuM currents. Furthermore, silencing of TRPM7 inhibited whereas overexpression of TRPM7 increased endogenous MagNuM currents, suggesting that these currents are dependent on TRPM7. Importantly, although an increase in the serum Ca2+/Mg2+ ratio facilitated Ca2+ influx in both control and prostate cancer cells, a significantly higher Ca2+ influx was observed in prostate cancer cells. TRPM7 expression was also increased in cancer cells, but its expression was not dependent on the Ca2+/Mg2+ ratio per se. Additionally, an increase in the extracellular Ca2+/Mg2+ ratio led to a significant increase in cell proliferation of prostate cancer cells when compared with control cells. Consistent with these results, age-matched prostate cancer patients also showed a subsequent increase in the Ca2+/Mg2+ ratio and TRPM7 expression. Altogether, we provide evidence that the TRPM7 channel has an important role in prostate cancer and have identified that the Ca2+/Mg2+ ratio could be essential for the initiation/progression of prostate cancer.

Abstract
The relationship between magnesium and cancer is not as simple as could be assumed from the well-established requirement of magnesium for cell proliferation. Basic and pre-clinical studies indicate that magnesium deficiency can have both anti- and pro-tumour effects. In the present review, we briefly outline the new findings on the role of magnesium in angiogenesis and metastatization, and focus on the relationship between tumour cell proliferation and metabolic reprogramming, discussing how magnesium and its transporters are involved in these processes. The role of magnesium in cancer is also critically examined with regard to mitochondrial function, apoptosis and resistance to treatment. Finally, we bring together the latest experimental evidence indicating that alteration in the expression and/or activity of magnesium channels is a frequent finding in cancer cells and human tumour tissues examined to date, and we discuss the potential implications for developing novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
TRPM7 channels are implicated in cellular survival, proliferation, and differentiation. However, a profile of TRPM7 activity in a specific cell type has not been determined from embryonic to terminally differentiated state. Here, we characterized TRPM7 expression in a spectrum of rat liver cells at different developmental stages. Using the whole-cell patch clamp technique, TRPM7-like Na+ currents were identified in RLC-18 cells, a differentiated, proliferating hepatocellular line derived from day 17 embryonic rat liver. Currents were outwardly rectifying, enhanced in divalent-free solutions, and inhibited by intracellular Mg2+. Reverse transcription – polymerase chain reaction (RT–PCR) revealed that RLC-18 cells express both TRPM6 and TRPM7. However, mean currents were reduced almost 80% by 1 mmol/L 2-aminoethoxyphenylborate (2-APB) and were abolished in RLC-18 cells heterologously expressing a dominant negative TRPM7 construct, suggesting that TRPM7 is the major current carrier in these cells. Functional comparison showed that relative to terminally differentiated adult rat hepatocytes, currents were 1.8 and 3.9 times higher in, respectively, RLC-18 and WIF-B cells, a rat hepatoma – human fibroblast cross. Our results demonstrate that plasma membrane TRPM7 channels are more highly expressed in proliferating cells as compared with terminally differentiated and nondividing rat hepatocytes and suggest that downregulation of this channel is associated with hepatocellular differentiation.

Abstract
Magnesium, the second most abundant cellular cation after potassium, is essential to regulate numerous cellular functions and enzymes, including ion channels, metabolic cycles, and signaling pathways, as attested by more than 1000 entries in the literature. Despite significant recent progress, however, our understanding of how cells regulate Mg(2+) homeostasis and transport still remains incomplete. For example, the occurrence of major fluxes of Mg(2+) in either direction across the plasma membrane of mammalian cells following metabolic or hormonal stimuli has been extensively documented. Yet, the mechanisms ultimately responsible for magnesium extrusion across the cell membrane have not been cloned. Even less is known about the regulation in cellular organelles. The present review is aimed at providing the reader with a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of the mechanisms enacted by eukaryotic cells to regulate cellular Mg(2+) homeostasis and how these mechanisms are altered under specific pathological conditions.

Abstract
Members of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family bind to ErbB (EGFR) family receptors which play an important role in the regulation of various fundamental cell processes including cell proliferation and differentiation. The normal rodent kidney has been shown to express at least three members of the ErbB receptor family and is a major site of EGF ligand synthesis. Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a group of diseases caused by mutations in single genes and is characterized by enlarged kidneys due to the formation of multiple cysts in both kidneys. Tubule cells proliferate, causing segmental dilation, in association with the abnormal deposition of several proteins. One of the first abnormalities described in cell biological studies of PKD pathogenesis was the abnormal mislocalization of the EGFR in cyst lining epithelial cells. The kidney collecting duct (CD) is predominantly an absorptive epithelium where electrogenic Na(+) entry is mediated by the epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC). ENaC-mediated sodium absorption represents an important ion transport pathway in the CD that might be involved in the development of PKD. A role for EGF in the regulation of ENaC-mediated sodium absorption has been proposed. However, several investigations have reported contradictory results indicating opposite effects of EGF and its related factors on ENaC activity and sodium transport. Recent advances in understanding how proteins in the EGF family regulate the proliferation and sodium transport in normal and PKD epithelial cells are discussed here. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Polycystic Kidney Disease.

Abstract
Mrs2 transporters are distantly related to the major bacterial Mg(2+) transporter CorA and to Alr1, which is found in the plasma membranes of lower eukaryotes. Common features of all Mrs2 proteins are the presence of an N-terminal soluble domain followed by two adjacent transmembrane helices (TM1 and TM2) near the C-terminus and of the highly conserved F/Y-G-M-N sequence motif at the end of TM1. The inner mitochondrial domain of the Mrs2 from Saccharomyces cerevisae was overexpressed, purified and crystallized in two different crystal forms corresponding to an orthorhombic and a hexagonal space group. The crystals diffracted X-rays to 1.83 and 4.16 A resolution, respectively. Matthews volume calculations suggested the presence of one molecule per asymmetric unit in the orthorhombic crystal form and of five or six molecules per asymmetric unit in the hexagonal crystal form. The phase problem was solved for the orthorhombic form by a single-wavelength anomalous dispersion experiment exploiting the sulfur anomalous signal.

Abstract
Imipramine, an antidepressant drug, can cause potentially lethal cardiotoxic side effects including hypotension, ventricular tachycardia, and decreased cardiac output. This study investigated the mechanism responsible for imipramine-induced cardiac depression in rats. The left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), velocity of the change in pressure (dP/dt), and heart rate (HR) accompanied with the total magnesium efflux ([Mg]e) were measured in Langendorff-perfused intact rats hearts. Intracellular ionized magnesium concentrations ([Mg2+] i) were measured using Mag-fura 2 AM in a single H9c2 cell. The activation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK 1/2) was analyzed by Western blot. Imipramine induced reversible decreases in LVDP, dP/dt, and HR, which were accompanied by increases in [Mg]e. Imipramine also induced activation of ERK 1/2 and increase in the [Mg2+] i, which was inhibited PD98059, ERK 1/2 inhibitor. These results suggest that imipramine-induced cardiac depression may be partly due to increases of [Mg2+]i that are accompanied by the activation of ERK 1/2 in rats.

[PMID: 20338184 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2010.03.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2010] [Revised: 03/06/2010] [Accepted: 03/11/2010] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
AIMS Loss of magnesium (Mg(2+)) inhibits cell proliferation and augments nephrotoxicant-induced renal injury, but the role of Mg(2+) has not been clarified in detail. We examined the effect of extracellular Mg(2+) deprivation on a MEK-ERK cascade and cell proliferation using a renal epithelial cell line, Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. MAIN METHODS MDCK cells were cultured in Mg(2+)-containing or Mg(2+)-free media. A HA-tagged constitutively active (CA)-MEK1 and a dominant negative (DN)-MEK1 were transfected into MDCK cells. The level of protein was examined by Western blotting. The intracellular free Mg(2+) concentration ([Mg(2+)](i)) was measured using a fluorescent dye, mag-fura 2. Cell proliferation was determined by WST-1 assay. Dead cells were identified by staining with annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide. KEY FINDINGS In the presence of fetal calf serum (FCS), Mg(2+) deprivation decreased phosphorylated-ERK1/2 (p-ERK1/2) levels and [Mg(2+)](i). Re-addition of Mg(2+) increased p-ERK1/2 levels, which were inhibited by U0126, a specific inhibitor of a MEK-ERK cascade. Glutathione-S-transferase pull-down and coimmunoprecipitation assays showed that CA-MEK1 and DN-MEK1 binds with ERK1/2 in the presence of Mg(2+). In contrast, neither CA-MEK1 nor DN-MEK1 bound to ERK1/2 in the absence of Mg(2+). These results indicate that the MEK-ERK cascade is regulated by [Mg(2+)](i). Cell proliferation was increased by the treatment with FCS or the expression of CA-MEK1 in the presence of Mg(2+), but was inhibited by Mg(2+) deprivation. Mg(2+) deprivation did not increase the number of dead cells. SIGNIFICANCE Mg(2+) is involved in the regulation of the MEK-ERK cascade and cell proliferation in MDCK cells.

Abstract
A large number of mammalian Mg2+ transporters have been hypothesized on the basis of physiological data, but few have been investigated at the molecular level. The recent identification of a number of novel proteins that mediate Mg2+ transport has enhanced our understanding of how Mg2+ is translocated across mammalian membranes. Some of these transporters have some similarity to those found in prokaryocytes and yeast cells. Human Mrs2, a mitochondrial Mg2+ channel, shares many of the properties of the bacterial CorA and yeast Alr1 proteins. The SLC41 family of mammalian Mg2+ transporters has a similarity with some regions of the bacterial MgtE transporters. The mammalian ancient conserved domain protein (ACDP) Mg2+ transporters are found in prokaryotes, suggesting an ancient origin. However, other newly identified mammalian transporters, including TRPM6/7, MagT, NIPA, MMgT, and HIP14 families, are not represented in prokaryotic genomes, suggesting more recent development. MagT, NIPA, MMgT, and HIP14 transporters were identified by differential gene expression using microarray analysis. These proteins, which are found in many different tissues and subcellular organelles, demonstrate a diversity of structural properties and biophysical functions. The mammalian Mg2+ transporters have no obvious amino acid similarities, indicating that there are many ways to transport Mg2+ across membranes. Most of these proteins transport a number of divalent cations across membranes. Only MagT1 and NIPA2 are selective for Mg2+. Many of the identified mammalian Mg2+ transporters are associated with a number of congenital disorders encompassing a wide range of tissues, including intestine, kidney, brain, nervous system, and skin. It is anticipated that future research will identify other novel Mg2+ transporters and reveal other diseases.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential melastatin 6 (TRPM6) channel is involved in the reabsorption of magnesium in the kidney. We recently found that TRPM6 expression is up-regulated by EGF, but the regulatory mechanism has not been clear. TRPM6 mRNA was endogenously expressed in HEK293 cells. TRPM6 mRNA expression was increased by EGF, which was inhibited by U0126, an MEK inhibitor. Promoter activity of human TRPM6 was observed in the TRPM6 5'-flanking region from -1,214 to -718. This promoter activity was enhanced by EGF and inhibited by U0126. Three putative AP-1 binding sites were identified within the region of -1,214/-718. The mutation of the putative AP-1 binding site (-741/-736) completely inhibited the EGF-induced promoter activity. EGF increased p-ERK1/2, c-Fos, c-Jun, and p-c-Jun levels, which were inhibited by U0126. The introduction of c-Fos or c-Jun siRNA inhibited the EGF-induced promoter activity. A chromatin immunoprecipitation assay revealed that c-Fos and c-Jun bind to the AP-1 binding site within the region of -1,214/-718. These results suggest that EGF up-regulates TRPM6 mRNA expression mediate via the activation of ERK/AP-1-dependent pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Serum magnesium concentration is a quantitative trait with substantial heritability. Although the pool of candidate genes continues to grow, only the histocompatibility locus has been associated with magnesium levels. To explore other possibilities, we targeted 6 candidate genes physiologically relevant to magnesium metabolism. METHODS We studied a large cohort (n=471) derived from a well-characterized population of healthy Caucasian women 18 to 35 years. Total serum magnesium and calcium were measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry (aaMg & aaCa). Genomic DNA was amplified and SNPs in candidate genes (CASR, VDR, ESR1, CLDN16, EGF1, TRPM6) genotyped by routine methods. RESULTS We found a significant association between estrogen receptor alpha (ESR1) polymorphisms, PvuII and XbaI, and magnesium (r=-0.116, p=0.012 and r=-0.126, p=0.006, respectively). Stratifying by PvuII genotype (P/p alleles), the mean adjusted total magnesium (aaMg) concentration was significantly higher (p=0.01) in the pp group (0.823+/-0.005 mmol/l, n=130) than in PP homozygotes (0.805+/-0.006 mmol/l, n=70), and the mean in Pp heterozygotes was intermediate (0.810+/-0.005 mmol/l, n=180). No significant associations were observed with the other candidate genes tested. CONCLUSIONS The significant association between magnesium and ESR1 polymorphisms supports previous studies linking physiologic changes in serum magnesium to estrogen status.

Abstract
High extracellular Mg(2+) concentrations ([Mg(2+)](o)) caused a remarkable concentration-dependent and reversible increase in intracellular Mg(2+) concentrations ([Mg(2+)](i)) in beating and quiescent guinea-pig papillary muscles, accompanied by a definite decrease in intracellular Na(+) concentrations ([Na(+)](i)). A change in 1 mm [Mg(2+)](o) evoked a direct change in 0.0161 mm [Mg(2+)](i) and an inverse change in 0.0263 mm [Na(+)](i). Imipramine completely abolished the high [Mg(2+)](o)-induced decrease in [Na(+)](i) and remarkably diminished the high [Mg(2+)](o)-induced increase in [Mg(2+)](i) in papillary muscles. High [Mg(2+)](o) also produced a significant activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase and extracellular signal-related kinase 2 (ERK2) that was inhibited by pretreatment with imipramine. These results suggest that the high [Mg(2+)](o)-induced increase in [Mg(2+)](i) could be coupled with the decrease in [Na(+)](i), which might involve activation of the reverse mode of Na(+)-Mg(2+) exchange, accompanied by activation of p38 MAP kinase and ERK2 in the guinea-pig heart.
