The effect of dietary magnesium on the post mortem PCr (phosphocreatine) decay in muscle of heterozygote malignant hyperthermia pigs was studied after in vivo exposure to a combination of halothane and succinylcholine. The pigs were anaesthetized with halothane and succinylcholine was injected in the ear vein. Immediately after initiation of the depolarizing neuromuscular blocking effect of succinylcholine the animals were captive-bolt stunned. The PCr decay, reflecting ATP turnover, was followed in situ by 31P-NMR spectroscopy in the biceps femoris muscle for the subsequent 40-70 min post mortem. In 3 of the 4 experiments, the Mg-fed pig had a significantly reduced rate of PCr hydrolysis compared to the control animal. The mechanism of this magnesium effect is unknown.

D006019 Glycolysis A metabolic process that converts GLUCOSE into two molecules of PYRUVIC ACID through a series of enzymatic reactions. Energy generated by this process is conserved in two molecules of ATP. Glycolysis is the universal catabolic pathway for glucose, free glucose, or glucose derived from complex CARBOHYDRATES, such as GLYCOGEN and STARCH.
