  • Title: [Modification of catecholamine metabolism in rats by magnesium aspartate hydrochloride].
    Author: Kietzmann M, Kreisner M.
    Journal: Dtsch Tierarztl Wochenschr; 1990 Apr; 97(4):177-80. PubMed ID: 2351057.
    Abstract:
    The metabolism of catecholamines was studied in rats treated with magnesium aspartate hydrochloride (MAH). For 3 days, MAH was administered via food (1000 mg magnesium/kg food). An enhanced renal elimination of catecholamine metabolites was found in MAH-treated rats as well as in rats stressed by immobilisation. Measured in vitro, hepatic monoaminoxidase activity was enhanced. The catechol-O-methyltransferase activity was not altered. In conclusion, oral treatment with MAH is followed by enhanced hepatic metabolism and increased renal elimination of catecholamines.
