Abstract excerpt
Clinical and fundamental research suggest that altered calcium and cAMP signaling might be the most proximal events in ADPKD pathogenesis. Cells from ADPKD cysts have a reduced resting cytosolic calcium [Ca2+]i and increased cAMP levels. CaSR plays an essential role in regulating calcium homeostasis. Its activation is associated with [Ca2+]i increase and cAMP decrease, making CaSR a possible therapeutic target....
