SINGLE-NUCLEOTIDE POLYMORPHISMS OF CALCIUM-SENSING RECEPTOR ENCODING GENE ASSOCIATED WITH CALCIUM KIDNEY STONE DISEASE IN BABYLON PROVINCE
2018-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Objective: The calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) is a G-protein-coupled receptor that is mainly expressed in the parathyroid and the kidneys where it regulates parathyroid hormone secretion and renal tubular calcium reabsorption. Inactivating and activating CASR gene due to mutations severally caused hypercalcemia or hypocalcemia disorders. The aim of the study was to investigate the risk factor of CASR rs1801725 (A...
