Effects of a protein kinase C inhibitor, K-252a, on human polymorphonuclear neutrophil responsiveness.

abstract：:TRPV5 is a Ca2+-selective channel that plays a key role in the reabsorption of Ca2+ ions in the kidney. Recently, a rare L530R variation (rs757494578) of TRPV5 was found to be associated with recurrent kidney stones in a founder population. However, it was unclear to what extent this variation alters the structure and...
