Application of ACh (10 −6 M) to the isolated rat pancreas elicited large increases in amylase secretion, radiolabelled 45 Ca influx and cytosolic free Ca 2+ levels in zero and normal (1·1 mM) extracellular magnesium (Mg 2+ ). Elevated (10 mM) Mg 2+ significantly ( P 〈 0·001) reduced the ACh‐induced amylase output and Ca 2+ mobilization. Similarly, ACh (10 −5 M) caused a transient increase in 45 Ca efflux from pre‐loaded pancreatic segments in normal Mg 2+ compared with the much reduced effect in elevated Mg 2+ . The results suggest that a modification in Mg 2+ influences ACh‐evoked amylase secretion by regulating Ca 2+ mobilization.
