Abstract excerpt
Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) is an autosomal dominant disorder, associated with inactivating mutations of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR). To evaluate the functional significance of a CaSR mutation, identified in a young infant who presented with hypercalcemia and hypocalciuria. The CaSR gene coding sequences were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction amplification and direct sequencing...
