Summary Calcium sensing receptor (CASR) is a G-protein couple receptor which plays a key role in calcium homeostasis in vertebrates. Its extracellular domain is sensitive to divalent cations, aminoacids and polyamines. In parathyroid glands, CASR activation causes parathyroid hormone (PTH) reduction and subsequently a decrease in blood calcium concentration. In PTH-dependent disorders, e.g. primary and secondary […]
