Overview
Historical Perspective
Classification
Three genetically heterogeneous variants are reported so far for familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia. Type 1 - due to loss-of-functional mutations of the calcium-sensing receptor (encoded by CASR). Type 2 - unknown cause. Type 3 - associated with adaptor-related protein complex 2, sigma 1 subunit (AP2S1) mutations, which alter calcium-sensing receptor endocytosis
Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology of [Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia] is due to an inactivating missense mutation in the calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) located on the short arm of the chromosome 3 (FBHH3q). The mutation of CaSR is associated with two inherited conditions FBHH and neonatal hyperparathyroidism. CaSR is a plasma membrane G protein coupled receptor which is expressed on the chief cells of the parathyroid glands and the cells lining the renal tubules. CasR has the ability to sense any changes in the circulating calcium concentrated and send this information through the signaling pathway to the Parathyroid gland that modifies the PTH secretion.
Causes
