Cnnm2 deficiency decreases faecal Mg2+ absorption. (A,C) Cnnm2+/− mice display significantly increased Mg2+ and Ca2+ excretion via the faeces (n = 29–34 per group). (B,D) Lower Mg2+ intake is associated with lower intestinal Mg2+ excretion, not with Ca2+, independent of genotype in Cnnm2+/+ (white bars) and Cnnm2+/− mice (black bars) (n = 8–12 per group) (E) Cnnm2 expression is significantly diminished in Cnnm2+/− mice, Cnnm4 (G), Trpm6 (H), Trpm7 (I), Slc41a1 (J), and Trpv6 (K) remain unaltered (n = 3–6 per group). Data are presented as mean ± SEM. Significance determined with two-tailed Student’s T-test or Two-way ANOVA followed by a Tukey post-hoc test. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001.
