| Abstract: | The pathogenesis of sporadic idiopathic hypoparathyroidism is unclear. The calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) plays a pivotal role in extracellular calcium homeostasis and is the candidate autoantigen in hypoparathyroidism associated with autoimmune polyglandular endocrinopathy syndrome. We therefore looked for antibodies (Ab) against the CaSR in patients with sporadic idiopathic hypoparathyroidism and their association, if any, with the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR haplotypes. |
