Steady-state net flux of Mg2+ was measured in everted preparations of guinea pig jejunum and ileum, and effects of anoxia, Na+ and Ca2+ concentration, ouabain, and Ca2+ channel blockers were examined. Uphill Mg2+ flux in the mucosal-to-serosal direction was seen in both intestinal segments, with the flux value being 1.5 times greater in the ileum than in the jejenum. The Mg2+ flux was 1.7 times greater than the net Ca2+ flux under the same experimental conditions. The Mg2+ flux was strongly dependent on oxygen and the presence of Na+ in the medium; both anoxia and total replacement of Na+ inhibited the flux by 90-100%. Also, ouabain added to the serosal side, and verapamil or D600 added to the mucosal side, inhibited the flux by about 90%. Inhibitory effects of both ouabain and Na(+)-free conditions were much greater for the Mg2+ flux than for the Ca2+ flux. A stepwise increase in Mg2+ concentration in a Na(+)-free mucosal solution caused a stepwise elevation of the mucosal negativity. The relative elevation of the evoked potential in response to Mg2+ concentration possessed saturable and linearly increasing components. Only the saturable component was found to be dependent on oxygen and sensitive to ouabain. Under the influence of ouabain and verapamil, the generation of the Mg(2+)-evoked potential was greatly inhibited. These findings suggest that Mg2+ is actively absorbed by the jejunum and ileum of the guinea pig, and that active transcellular transport involves a verapamil-sensitive entry step and Na(+)-dependent or ouabain-sensitive exit process which differs from Ca2+ extrusion mechanisms.
