Magnesium is a non-competitive antagonist of the NMDA receptor. Hypoxic insults to the brain are associated with a significant increase in the intranuclear Ca(2+) due to altered nuclear membrane Ca(2+) influx mechanisms including hypoxia-induced modifications of nuclear membrane IP(3) receptors. In this study we have examined the effects of magnesium sulfate administration to newborn piglets subjected to normoxia and severe hypoxia. The animals were randomly divided into normoxic (n=4), hypoxic (n=4) and magnesium sulfate treated hypoxic (n=4) groups. Hypoxia was confirmed biochemically by measuring ATP and phosphocreatine (PCr) levels in the brain tissue. Intranuclear Ca(2+) influx was assessed by measuring (45)Ca(2+) uptake. Results show a significant (P<0.05) decrease in ATP and PCr levels in hypoxic group in comparison with normoxia. On the other hand magnesium-treated hypoxic group showed a significantly (P<0.05) higher ATP and PCr in comparison with the hypoxic group. Intranuclear Ca(2+) was significantly (P<0.05) higher in the hypoxic group in comparison with both normoxic and magnesium-treated hypoxic groups. In addition results show that magnesium prevented hypoxia-induced modification of the IP(3) receptor. Magnesium treatment significantly reduced the hypoxia-induced increase in the number of receptors (reduced B(max) --P<0.05-treated hypoxia vs. hypoxia and normoxia), and reversed the receptor affinity (reduced dissociation coefficient-K(d)--P<0.05-treated hypoxia vs. normoxia). The results demonstrate that the administration of magnesium sulfate prior to hypoxia prevents the hypoxia-induced increase in intranuclear Ca(2+) and IP(3) receptor modifications. We conclude that Mg(2+ )administration prevents hypoxia-induced modification of neuronal nuclear membrane function that leads to intranuclear Ca(2+)-dependent transcription of apoptotic proteins leading to hypoxic neuronal programmed cell death.
