Hypocalcemia
Hypoparathyroidism
A condition caused by a deficiency of PARATHYROID HORMONE (or PTH). It is characterized by HYPOCALCEMIA and hyperphosphatemia. Hypocalcemia leads to TETANY. The acquired form is due to removal or injuries to the PARATHYROID GLANDS. The congenital form is due to mutations of genes, such as TBX1; (see DIGEORGE SYNDROME); CASR encoding CALCIUM-SENSING RECEPTOR; or PTH encoding parathyroid hormone.
Parathyroid Hormone
A polypeptide hormone (84 amino acid residues) secreted by the PARATHYROID GLANDS which performs the essential role of maintaining intracellular CALCIUM levels in the body. Parathyroid hormone increases intracellular calcium by promoting the release of CALCIUM from BONE, increases the intestinal absorption of calcium, increases the renal tubular reabsorption of calcium, and increases the renal excretion of phosphates.
Magnesium Deficiency
A nutritional condition produced by a deficiency of magnesium in the diet, characterized by anorexia, nausea, vomiting, lethargy, and weakness. Symptoms are paresthesias, muscle cramps, irritability, decreased attention span, and mental confusion, possibly requiring months to appear. Deficiency of body magnesium can exist even when serum values are normal. In addition, magnesium deficiency may be organ-selective, since certain tissues become deficient before others. (Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 12th ed, p1936)

Parathyroid Glands
Pseudohypoparathyroidism
A hereditary syndrome clinically similar to HYPOPARATHYROIDISM. It is characterized by HYPOCALCEMIA; HYPERPHOSPHATEMIA; and associated skeletal development impairment and caused by failure of response to PARATHYROID HORMONE rather than deficiencies. A severe form with resistance to multiple hormones is referred to as Type 1a and is associated with maternal mutant allele of the ALPHA CHAIN OF STIMULATORY G PROTEIN.
Receptors, Calcium-Sensing
A class of G-protein-coupled receptors that react to varying extracellular CALCIUM levels. Calcium-sensing receptors in the PARATHYROID GLANDS play an important role in the maintenance of calcium HOMEOSTASIS by regulating the release of PARATHYROID HORMONE. They differ from INTRACELLULAR CALCIUM-SENSING PROTEINS which sense intracellular calcium levels.
Calcium
A basic element found in nearly all organized tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
22q11 Deletion Syndrome
Condition with a variable constellation of phenotypes due to deletion polymorphisms at chromosome location 22q11. It encompasses several syndromes with overlapping abnormalities including the DIGEORGE SYNDROME, VELOCARDIOFACIAL SYNDROME, and CONOTRUNCAL AMOMALY FACE SYNDROME. In addition, variable developmental problems and schizoid features are also associated with this syndrome. (From BMC Med Genet. 2009 Feb 25;10:16) Not all deletions at 22q11 result in the 22q11deletion syndrome.
Hyperparathyroidism, Secondary
Phosphorus
Rickets
Disorders caused by interruption of BONE MINERALIZATION manifesting as OSTEOMALACIA in adults and characteristic deformities in infancy and childhood due to disturbances in normal BONE FORMATION. The mineralization process may be interrupted by disruption of VITAMIN D; PHOSPHORUS; or CALCIUM homeostasis, resulting from dietary deficiencies, or acquired, or inherited metabolic, or hormonal disturbances.
Hyperparathyroidism
A condition of abnormally elevated output of PARATHYROID HORMONE (or PTH) triggering responses that increase blood CALCIUM. It is characterized by HYPERCALCEMIA and BONE RESORPTION, eventually leading to bone diseases. PRIMARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM is caused by parathyroid HYPERPLASIA or PARATHYROID NEOPLASMS. SECONDARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM is increased PTH secretion in response to HYPOCALCEMIA, usually caused by chronic KIDNEY DISEASES.
Magnesium
Calcitriol
The physiologically active form of vitamin D. It is formed primarily in the kidney by enzymatic hydroxylation of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (CALCIFEDIOL). Its production is stimulated by low blood calcium levels and parathyroid hormone. Calcitriol increases intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphorus, and in concert with parathyroid hormone increases bone resorption.
Vitamin D
A vitamin that includes both CHOLECALCIFEROLS and ERGOCALCIFEROLS, which have the common effect of preventing or curing RICKETS in animals. It can also be viewed as a hormone since it can be formed in SKIN by action of ULTRAVIOLET RAYS upon the precursors, 7-dehydrocholesterol and ERGOSTEROL, and acts on VITAMIN D RECEPTORS to regulate CALCIUM in opposition to PARATHYROID HORMONE.

Tetany
A disorder characterized by muscle twitches, cramps, and carpopedal spasm, and when severe, laryngospasm and seizures. This condition is associated with unstable depolarization of axonal membranes, primarily in the peripheral nervous system. Tetany usually results from HYPOCALCEMIA or reduced serum levels of MAGNESIUM that may be associated with HYPERVENTILATION; HYPOPARATHYROIDISM; RICKETS; UREMIA; or other conditions. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1490)
Vitamin D Deficiency
A nutritional condition produced by a deficiency of VITAMIN D in the diet, insufficient production of vitamin D in the skin, inadequate absorption of vitamin D from the diet, or abnormal conversion of vitamin D to its bioactive metabolites. It is manifested clinically as RICKETS in children and OSTEOMALACIA in adults. (From Cecil Textbook of Medicine, 19th ed, p1406)
Calcitonin

Graves Disease
A common form of hyperthyroidism with a diffuse hyperplastic GOITER. It is an autoimmune disorder that produces antibodies against the THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE RECEPTOR. These autoantibodies activate the TSH receptor, thereby stimulating the THYROID GLAND and hypersecretion of THYROID HORMONES. These autoantibodies can also affect the eyes (GRAVES OPHTHALMOPATHY) and the skin (Graves dermopathy).
Diphosphonates
Organic compounds which contain P-C-P bonds, where P stands for phosphonates or phosphonic acids. These compounds affect calcium metabolism. They inhibit ectopic calcification and slow down bone resorption and bone turnover. Technetium complexes of diphosphonates have been used successfully as bone scanning agents.
Magnesium Sulfate
A small colorless crystal used as an anticonvulsant, a cathartic, and an electrolyte replenisher in the treatment of pre-eclampsia and eclampsia. It causes direct inhibition of action potentials in myometrial muscle cells. Excitation and contraction are uncoupled, which decreases the frequency and force of contractions.

Microdeletion 22q11 and oesophageal atresia. (1/502)
Oesophageal atresia (OA) is a congenital defect associated with additional malformations in 30-70% of the cases. In particular, OA is a component of the VACTERL association. Since some major features of the VACTERL association, including conotruncal heart defect, radial aplasia, and anal atresia, have been found in patients with microdeletion 22q11.2 (del(22q11.2)), we have screened for del(22q11.2) by fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) in 15 syndromic patients with OA. Del(22q11.2) was detected in one of them, presenting with OA, tetralogy of Fallot, anal atresia, neonatal hypocalcaemia, and subtle facial anomalies resembling those of velocardiofacial syndrome. The occurrence of del(22q11.2) in our series of patients with OA is low (1/15), but this chromosomal anomaly should be included among causative factors of malformation complexes with OA. In addition, clinical variability of del(22q11.2) syndrome is further corroborated with inclusion of OA in the list of the findings associated with the deletion. (+info)Recurrent hyperparathyroidism. (2/502)
Recurrent hyperparathyroidism occurred in 11 of 295 patients from 10 months to 34 years after an initially successful operation. Seven patients with recurrent hyperparathyroidism had either multiple endocrine adenomatosis type I (MEA) or familial hyperparathyroidism (FHP), one patient had parathyroid cancer, and two patients had renal failure at the time of recurrence. Four of these patients ahd their initial operations elsewhere. Recurrence developed in 33% of patients with MEA or FHP but in only 0.4% of 242 patients without MEA or FHP. The presence of MEA or FHP was known before parathyroid exploration in 18 (86%) of the 21 patients. In patients with MEA or FHP, subtotal parathyroidectomy should be performed if there is more than one gland involved. Other patients should be treated by selective removal of an adenoma because recurrence is rare. Subtotal parathyroidectomy should be reserved for patients with diffuse hyperplasia. (+info)Effect of rate of calcium reduction and a hypocalcemic clamp on parathyroid hormone secretion: a study in dogs. (3/502)
BACKGROUND: The parathyroid hormone (PTH) calcium curve is used to evaluate parathyroid function in clinical studies. However, unanswered questions remain about whether PTH secretion is affected by the rate of calcium reduction and how the maximal PTH response to hypocalcemia is best determined. We performed studies in normal dogs to determine whether (a) the rate of calcium reduction affected the PTH response to hypocalcemia and (b) the reduction in PTH values during a hypocalcemic clamp from the peak PTH value observed during the nadir of hypocalcemia was due to a depletion of stored PTH. METHODS: Fast (30 min) and slow (120 min) ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid (EDTA) infusions were used to induce similar reductions in ionized calcium. In the fast EDTA infusion group, serum calcium was maintained at the hypocalcemic 30-minute value for an additional 90 minutes (hypocalcemic clamp). To determine whether the reduction in PTH values during the hypocalcemic clamp represented depletion of PTH stores, three subgroups were studied. Serum calcium was rapidly reduced from established hypocalcemic levels in the fast-infusion group at 30 and 60 minutes (after 30 min of a hypocalcemic clamp) and in the slow-infusion group at 120 minutes. RESULTS: At the end of the fast and slow EDTA infusions, serum ionized calcium values were not different (0.84 +/- 0.02 vs. 0.82 +/- 0.03 mM), but PTH values were greater in the fast-infusion group (246 +/- 19 vs. 194 +/- 13 pg/ml, P < 0.05). During the hypocalcemic clamp, PTH rapidly decreased (P < 0.05) to value of approximately 60% of the peak PTH value obtained at 30 minutes. A rapid reduction in serum calcium from established hypocalcemic levels at 30 minutes did not stimulate PTH further, but also PTH values did not decrease as they did when a hypocalcemic clamp was started at 30 minutes. At 60 minutes, the reduction in serum calcium increased (P < 0.05) PTH to peak values similar to those before the hypocalcemic clamp. The reduction in serum calcium at 120 minutes in the slow EDTA infusion group increased PTH values from 224 +/- 11 to 302 +/- 30 pg/ml (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that (a) the reduction in PTH values during the hypocalcemic clamp may not represent a depletion of PTH stores. (b) The use of PTH values from the hypocalcemic clamp as the maximal PTH may underestimate the maximal secretory capacity of the parathyroid glands and also would change the analysis of the PTH-calcium curve, and (c) the PTH response to similar reductions in serum calcium may be less for slow than fast reductions in serum calcium. (+info)Evidence for the promotion of bone mineralization by 1alpha,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol in the rat unrelated to the correction of deficiencies in serum calcium and phosphorus. (4/502)
Concurrent administration of 1alpha,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [1alpha,25-(OH)2-CC] to intact and thyroparathyroidectomized rats treated with ethane-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonate (EHDP) prevented or reversed the EHDP-induced inhibition of bone mineralization as measured by changes in epiphyseal plate width and ash content of bone. An analog, 1alpha-droxycholecalciferol, was also effective. Recovery of bone after EHDP treatment was also significantly improved by administration of 1alpha,25-(OH)2-CC as evidenced by enhanced uptake of 45Ca by epiphyseal plates and decreased plate widths. Cholecalciferol (CC), ergocalciferol, dihydrotachysterol2, 5,6-trans-CC, 25-OH-CC, 5,6-Trans-25-OH-CC, and 1alpha24R,25-(OH)3-CC also blocked EHDP-induced epiphyseal plate widening, but required high, pharmacological dose levels. 24R,25- (OH)2-CC was inactive at doses up to 10 microgram/day. Since EHDP-treated rats are not deficient in calcium or phosphate, these data suggest that 1alpha,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol promoted bone mineralization independently of effects upon the intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphate. (+info)Calcitonin is a major regulator for the expression of renal 25-hydroxyvitamin D3-1alpha-hydroxylase gene in normocalcemic rats. (5/502)
Regulation of vitamin D metabolism has long been examined by using vitamin D-deficient hypocalcemic animals. We previously reported that, in a rat model of chronic hyperparathyroidism, expression of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3-1alpha-hydroxylase (CYP27B1) mRNA was markedly increased in renal proximal convoluted tubules. It is believed that the major regulator for the expression of renal CYP27B1 is parathyroid hormone (PTH). However, in the normocalcemic state, the mechanism to regulate the renal CYP27B1 gene could be different, since plasma levels of PTH are very low. In the present study, the effect of PTH and calcitonin (CT) on the expression of renal CYP27B1 mRNA was investigated in normocalcemic sham-operated rats and normocalcemic thyroparathyroidectomized (TPTX) rats generated by either PTH or CaCl2 infusion. A single injection of CT dose-dependently decreased the expression of vitamin D receptor mRNA in the kidney of normocalcemic sham-TPTX rats. Concomitantly, CT greatly increased the expression of CYP27B1 mRNA in the kidney of normocalcemic sham-TPTX rats. CT also increased the expression of CYP27B1 mRNA in the kidney of normocalcemic TPTX rats. Conversion of serum [3H]1alpha,25(OH)2D3 from 25-hydroxy[3H]vitamin D3 in vivo was also greatly increased by the injection of CT into sham-TPTX rats and normocalcemic TPTX rats, but not into hypocalcemic TPTX rats. In contrast, administration of PTH did not induce the expression of CYP27B1 mRNA in the kidney of vitamin D-replete sham-TPTX rats and hypocalcemic TPTX rats. PTH increased the expression of renal CYP27B1 mRNA only in vitamin D-deficient hypocalcemic TPTX rats. These results suggest that CT plays an important role in the maintenance of serum 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 under normocalcemic physiological conditions, at least in rats. (+info)Calcimimetic compound NPS R-568 stimulates calcitonin secretion but selectively targets parathyroid gland Ca(2+) receptor in rats. (6/502)
N-(3-[2-Chlorophenyl]propyl)-(R)-alpha-methyl-3-methoxybenzylamine (NPS R-568) is an orally active compound that activates Ca(2+) receptors on parathyroid cells and rapidly suppresses plasma levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and Ca(2+) (ED(50), 1 and 10 mg/kg, respectively). We now show that increased calcitonin secretion contributes to NPS R-568-induced hypocalcemia. In parathyroidectomized thyroid-intact rats in which normocalcemia was restored by PTH infusion, NPS R-568 rapidly reduced plasma Ca(2+) levels, indicating that decreased PTH secretion was not solely responsible for the hypocalcemia seen in normal animals. NPS R-568 decreased plasma Ca(2+) levels in thyroidectomized parathyroid-intact rats, but the rate of onset of hypocalcemia was slower than in controls. In contrast, NPS R-568 had no effect on plasma Ca(2+) levels in PTH-infused, thyroparathyroidectomized rats, providing evidence that increased calcitonin secretion caused the hypocalcemia in PTH-infused parathyroidectomized rats. NPS R-568 rapidly increased plasma calcitonin levels to a peak at 10 to 20 min after oral dosing (ED(50) 40 mg/kg). NPS R-568 did not affect the rate of disappearance of (45)Ca from blood, indicating that hypocalcemia resulted from decreased influx of Ca(2+) into the circulation and not from increased efflux. This suggests that NPS R-568-induced hypocalcemia resulted solely from reduced efflux of Ca(2+) from bone after increased calcitonin and reduced PTH secretion. Thus, NPS R-568 causes hypocalcemia by activating Ca(2+) receptors on C cells and parathyroid cells; however, NPS R-568 is about 40 times more potent in reducing PTH levels than in increasing calcitonin levels.

1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25(OH)(2)D(3)) concentrations have been found to be decreased in diabetic humans and rats. To investigate further the regulation of plasma Ca in diabetes, first we measured Ca(2+), P, Mg, parathyroid hormone(1-34) (PTH), and total and free 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) in male spontaneously diabetic rats 7 and 28 days after the onset of glycosuria. Secondly, we studied changes in the levels of PTH and 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) in response to hypocalcaemia induced by an i.v. infusion of EGTA (2.5%, wt/vol.) for 24 h, and changes in the levels of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) in response to an i.v. infusion of rat PTH (10 microgram over 24 h) without or with concomitant EGTA infusion (producing hypercalcaemia or normo/hypocalcaemia respectively), in diabetic and control rats. Ca(2+), P, Mg and PTH concentrations remained within the control ranges after 7 and 28 days of glycosuria; 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) concentrations were decreased after 7, but not after 28, days of glycosuria. PTH concentrations showed a similar rise during EGTA-induced hypocalcaemia in control and diabetic rats compared with saline-infused rats, whereas 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) concentrations were unchanged in both groups. Total and free 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) levels were comparably (about 3-fold) increased during PTH, but not during combined PTH and EGTA infusion in control and diabetic rats. Total 1, 25(OH)(2)D(3) concentrations were lower in the diabetic groups infused with saline or PTH than in their respective controls, and there was a similar trend in the PTH+EGTA-infused group; free 1, 25(OH)(2)D(3) levels, however, were normal or increased in the diabetic groups, confirming our previous data. The novel finding of this study is that, despite severe insulin deficiency and altered 1, 25(OH)(2)D(3) levels, the in vivo response of PTH levels to hypocalcaemia and the in vivo response of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) levels to PTH in diabetic rats are comparable with those found in nondiabetic rats. (+info)Hormonal control of calcium homeostasis. (8/502)
Calcium homeostasis in the extracellular fluid is tightly controlled and defended physiologically. Hypercalcemia always represents considerable underlying pathology and occurs when the hormonal control of calcium homeostasis is overwhelmed. The major hormones that are responsible for normal calcium homeostasis are parathyroid hormone and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D; these hormones control extracellular fluid calcium on a chronic basis. Over- or underproduction of these hormones or the tumor peptide, parathyroid hormone-related peptide, are the major causes of aberrant extracellular fluid calcium concentrations. These hormonal defense mechanisms are reviewed here. (+info)

- Since it is often undetected, the economic losses resulting from subclinical hypocalcemia far exceed those from milk fever. (blueseal.com)
- However, despite the lower cost per incidence, since there are far more cases of subclinical hypocalcemia, total dollars lost have been estimated to be nearly four times greater (Oetzel, 2011). (blueseal.com)
- The level below which cows are considered to be suffering from subclinical hypocalcemia is now identified as 8.5 mg/dL. (blueseal.com)
- Studies indicate that to prevent subclinical hypocalcemia it is best to reduce DCAD to -15 mEq/100 g DM (Moore et al. (blueseal.com)
- Cows with subclinical hypocalcemia are not always easy to identify. (feedstuffs.com)
Mild3
- Most cases of hypocalcemia are clinically mild and require only supportive treatment and further laboratory evaluation. (medscape.com)
- Mild hypocalcemia requires only supportive treatment. (tampabayproperties.us)
- High oral doses of alpha calcitriol and calcium with i.v. infusion of high calcium doses were instituted, altogether sufficient to maintain only mild hypocalcaemia. (bioscientifica.com)
Clinically2
- Ionized calcium levels should be obtained if hypocalcemia is considered to be clinically significant. (medscape.com)
- Clinically evident hypocalcemia generally presents in milder forms and is usually the result of a chronic disease state. (ramtan.co)
Muscle spasms1
- The most common features of autosomal dominant hypocalcemia include muscle spasms in the hands and feet (carpopedal spasms) and muscle cramping, prickling or tingling sensations (paresthesias), or twitching of the nerves and muscles (neuromuscular irritability) in various parts of the body. (medlineplus.gov)
Diagnosis4
- Incidence and prevalence are difficult to estimate because hypocalcemia is a multifactorial diagnosis. (ramtan.co)
- Diagnosis and management of hypocalcaemia. (coreem.net)
- In addition, we analyzed the correlation of postoperative hypocalcemia with relation to the type of surgery, diagnosis, duration of surgery, and the quantity of blood loss. (saudisurgj.org)
- Diagnosis of Hypocalcemia is done by the doctor by checking out family history for osteoporosis and calcium deficiency, taking blood samples to check blood calcium level. (healthy-living-styles.com)

Incidence3
- The incidence of milk fever (clinical hypocalcemia) has dropped significantly on dairy farms over the last two decades. (blueseal.com)
- The authors conclude that hypocalcemia rarely occurs in whole blood only resuscitation, and that adding components increases its incidence and overall mortality. (thetraumapro.com)
- The incidence of transient hypocalcemia has been estimated to occur between 3% to 30% of cases even after preservation of one or more parathyroids [ 2 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
Secondary hyperparathyroidism2
- Both processes lead to hypocalcaemia and secondary hyperparathyroidism 3 . (bvsalud.org)
- The recommended intravenous initial dose of Calcitriol injection, depending on the severity of the hypocalcemia and/or secondary hyperparathyroidism, is 1 mcg (0.02 mcg/kg) to 2 mcg administered three times weekly, approximately every other day. (kjhbazar.com)
Transient1
- Otherwise, it is called transient hypocalcemia. (saudisurgj.org)
Occurs3
- Hypocalcemia, also known as calcium deficiency disease, occurs when the blood has low levels of calcium. (tampabayproperties.us)
- Neonatal Hypocalcemia occurs in infants within the first 2 - 3 days after birth. (healthy-living-styles.com)
- Hypocalcemia occurs as a result of citrate that is used during storage to help the blood from coagulating. (criticalcarenow.com)
Levels of calcium in the b1
- Autosomal dominant hypocalcemia is characterized by low levels of calcium in the blood (hypocalcemia). (medlineplus.gov)
Hypercalcemia4
- 1 0 obj As is the case for hypercalcemia, having one or more of the following symptoms could indicate the presence of another health problem instead of hypocalcemia. (tampabayproperties.us)
- What does hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia lead to? (healthy-living-styles.com)
- Your doctor may recommend this blood test if you're showing symptoms of hypercalcemia (too much calcium in your blood) or hypocalcemia (too little calcium in your blood). (webmd.com)
- Hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia indicate serious disruption of calcium homeostasis but do not reflect calcium balance on their own. (asnjournals.org)
Infants3
- In neonates, hypocalcemia is more likely to occur in infants born of diabetic or preeclamptic mothers. (ramtan.co)
- Hypocalcemia also may occur in infants born to mothers with hyperparathyroidism. (ramtan.co)
- Adam, Henry M. / Hypocalcemia in infants and children . (elsevier.com)
Prevalence1
- The prevalence of autosomal dominant hypocalcemia is unknown. (medlineplus.gov)
Transfusion1
- Given in even modest to large quantities, transfusion itself can lead to hypocalcemia. (thetraumapro.com)
Signs and symptoms1
- Due to the nature of hypocalcemia being secondary to a primary disease state, physical therapy management includes recognition of the signs and symptoms thereof. (ramtan.co)
Neonates2
Complication1
- Hypocalcemia is a well-known complication and concern following thyroid surgery. (biomedcentral.com)
Hypercalcaemia2
- Both hypercalcaemia and hypocalcaemia can be serious if left untreated. (urotoday.com)
- Derangements above (hypercalcaemia) and below (hypocalcaemia) this level interfere with the normal function of most body cells but nerve and muscle cells in particular. (tampabayproperties.us)
Clinical manifestations1
- The purpose of this study is to establish the relationship between early neonatal hypocalcemia and clinical manifestations and to propose a guideline for appropriate treatment of early neonatal hypocalcemia, especially in asymptomatic cases. (neo-med.org)
Asymptomatic2
- In addition, asymptomatic hypocalcemia was improved shortly without any treatment without any problem. (neo-med.org)
- We conclude that for asymptomatic hypocalcemia, withholding dangerous calcium gluconate infusion would be perrnissible. (neo-med.org)
CASR2
- These studies of a mouse model with an activating CaSR mutation demonstrate NPS 2143 to normalize the gain-of-function causing ADH1, and improve the hypocalcemia associated with this disorder. (uea.ac.uk)
- Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia (ADH) is an endocrine disorder due to activating mutations of the calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) gene that encodes for a plasma membrane G protein-coupled receptor. (qscience.com)
Outcomes1
- Outcomes evaluated were ionized calcium levels, hypocalcemia correction, and death. (thetraumapro.com)
