TRPV6 Gene Mutation in a Dizygous Twin With Transient Neonatal Hyperparathyroidism
3 Jan 2019
Abstract excerpt
Maternal–fetal transport of calcium (Ca2+) is important for bone mineralization in fetal development. Insufficient Ca2+ transport causes transient neonatal hyperparathyroidism (TNHP). Transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 6 (TRPV6), has been found to play an important role in the active transport of Ca2+ through the placenta. Recently, TRPV6 gene was found to be the gene responsible for...
