Inherited Disorders of Renal Magnesium Handling
Conclusion
In summary, the molecular and genetic basis of various inherited disorders that affect renal magnesium handling are being delineated. These conditions affect different nephron segments and different cell types, which leads to variable but increasingly distinguishable phenotypic presentations. Undoubtedly, there are other disorders in the general population that have not yet been identified or characterized. The continued use of molecular techniques to probe the constitutive and congenital disturbances of magnesium metabolism will increase our understanding of cellular magnesium transport and provide new insights into the way these diseases are diagnosed and managed.
