Abstract excerpt
Despite extensive study since the first report of familial benign hypercalcemia (FBH, or hypocalciuric hypercalcemia) in 1972, there is no evidence of the specific abnormal gene product. FBH is highly suitable for either a candidate gene or a reverse genetics approach to localizing the genetic ab...
