Gia level was not altered by either Mg deficiency or MI alone,but was dramatically elevated in animals with combined Mg deficiency and MI (9. 9±0.7 arbitrary unit.mg-1 protein) as compared to MI alone (5.8±0. 6,P<0.05 )and Mg deficiency alone(6.1± 0.8,P<0.05 ). Gsa level did not differ between groups.Bacal,GppNHp-and forskolin-but not fluoride-, stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity was signifcantly reduced in MI animals with existing Mg deficiency indicating increased functional activity of Gia.The findings suggest that dietary Mg deficiency increases the expression and functional ac tivity of Gia in the heart after MI, while levels and function of Gsa are not compromised during dietary Mg deficiency either with or without MI.展开更多
