Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) is a key controller of calcium homeostasis by regulating parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion and renal calcium reabsorption. CASR(T888) is a protein kinase C (PKC) phosphorylation site in the receptor's intracellular domain that has previously been identified as a critical negative regulator of CASR downstream signaling in vitro, but whose importance in vivo is...
