Overview

Historical Perspective

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[1][2]

Pathophysiology

The pathophysiology of [Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia] is due to an inactivating missense mutation in the calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) located on the short arm of the chromosome 3 (FBHH3q). The mutation of CaSR is associated with two inherited conditions FBHH and neonatal hyperparathyroidism. CaSR is a plasma membrane G protein coupled receptor which is expressed on the chief cells of the parathyroid glands and the cells lining the renal tubules. CasR has the ability to sense any changes in the circulating calcium concentrated and send this information through the signaling pathway to the Parathyroid gland that modifies the PTH secretion.

Causes

Differentiating Xyz from other Diseases

Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia should be differentiated from other causes of hypercalcemia. Causes of hypercalcemia include:

Parathyroid-related

Hyperparathyroidism

Primary hyperparathyroidism

Secondary hyperparathyroidism

Tertiary hyperparathyroidism

Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia

Non-parathyroid related

Malignancy

Humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy

Osteolytic tumors

Production of calcitriol by tumors

Ectopic parathyroid hormone production

Medication-induced

Thiazide diuretics

Lithium

Nutritional

Milk-alkali syndrome

Vitamin D toxicity

Granulomatous disease

Sarcoidosis

Surgical

Immobilization

Epidemiology and Demographics

Risk Factors

Screening

Prenatal testing for FHH is not recommended routinely. In both parents with type-1 FHH their offsprings are screened for CASR mutation[3]. Genetic screening for the CASR familial mutation is also offered to family members of affected individuals, CaSR and AP2S1 sequencing is done in patients with familial hyperparathyroidism and phenotype suggesting FHH. GNA11 mutations seem much rarer. Learning disabilities in these patients, associated with higher serum calcium and magnesium levels may suggest the presence of AP2S1 rather than CaSR mutation and may guide the first step in the genetic evaluation.[3][4].
