The Possibility of a Specific Calcium Sensor/Receptor Function of Proximal Renal Tubular Cells

  • Chapter
Urolithiasis

Abstract

Disturbances of calcium metabolism are well documented in renal calcium-stone disease and hypercalciuria is the most commonly-occurring metabolic deviation (1). Idiopathic hypercalciuria is considered to be caused by an increased gastrointestinal absorption of calcium, whereas a primary renal leak of calcium with the development of secondary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) is unusual, as judged by present diagnostic tools.
