Effect of calcium-sensing receptor activation in models of autosomal recessive or dominant polycystic kidney disease

Background. Antagonists of relevant Gs protein-coupled and agonists of relevant Gi protein-coupled receptors lower renal cAMP and inhibit growth of renal cysts in animal models of human ARPKD (PCK rat) and/or ADPKD (Pkd2(−/WS25) mouse). A calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) is expressed in various tubula...
