In summary, we have shown that GPRC6A has multiple functions as evidenced by abnormalities in GPRC6A null mice that include alterations in circulating testosterone and estrogen levels and feminization of male mice, defects of bone density and bone cell function and abnormalities in the renal handling of calcium and phosphate, hyperglycemia and liver steatosis. Here, GPRC6A is linked to Hepatic steatosis.
