Classification
Classification
Three genetically heterogeneous variants are reported so far for familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia.
Type 1 - due to loss-of-functional mutations of the calcium-sensing receptor (encoded by CASR).
Type 2 - unknown cause.
Type 3 - associated with adaptor-related protein complex 2, sigma 1 subunit (AP2S1) mutations, which alter calcium-sensing receptor endocytosis.
