==Overview==
The [[pathophysiology]] of familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) 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 FHH 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.

Overview

The pathophysiology of familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) 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 FHH 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.

Genetics

Associated Conditions

FHH sometimes is associated with pancreatitis as the mutation in CaSR can make the pancreas susceptible for inflammation[8].

Gross Pathology

No gross pathology is seen in FHH.

Microscopic Pathology

On light microscopy percent parenchyma is reduced in parathyroid glands in patients with familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia, whereas the percent fat is increased in the parathyroid glands.[9][10]
