Abstract
The bone-derived hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) acts in concert with parathyroid hormone (PTH) and the active vitamin D metabolite calcitriol in the regulation of calcium (Ca) and phosphate (P) homeostasis. More factors are being identified to regulate FGF23 levels and the endocrine loops between the three hormones. The present review summarizes the complex regulation of FGF23 and the disturbed FGF23/Klotho system in chronic kidney disease (CKD). In addition to the reduced ability of the injured kidney to regulate plasma levels of FGF23, several CKD-related factors have been shown to stimulate FGF23 production. The high circulating FGF23 levels have detrimental effects on erythropoiesis, the cardio-vascular system and the immune system, all contributing to the disturbed system biology in CKD. Moreover, new factors secreted by the injured kidney and the uremic calcified vasculature play a role in the mineral and bone disorder in CKD and create a vicious pathological crosstalk.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of parathyroid gland hyperplasia is poorly understood, and a better understanding is essential if there is to be improvement over the current strategies for prevention and treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism. Here we investigate the specific role of Klotho expressed in the parathyroid glands (PTGs) in mediating parathyroid hormone (PTH) and serum calcium homeostasis, as well as the potential interaction between calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) and Klotho. We generated mouse strains with PTG-specific deletion of Klotho and CaSR and dual deletion of both genes. We show that ablating CaSR in the PTGs increases PTH synthesis, that Klotho has a pivotal role in suppressing PTH in the absence of CaSR, and that CaSR together with Klotho regulates PTH biosynthesis and PTG growth. We utilized the tdTomato gene in our mice to visualize and collect PTGs to reveal an inhibitory function of Klotho on PTG cell proliferation. Chronic hypocalcemia and ex vivo PTG culture demonstrated an independent role for Klotho in mediating PTH secretion. Moreover, we identify an interaction between PTG-expressed CaSR and Klotho. These findings reveal essential and interrelated functions for CaSR and Klotho during parathyroid hyperplasia.

Abstract
Tumourigenesis is a relatively common event in endocrine tissues. Currently, specific guidelines have been developed for common malignant endocrine tumours, which also incorporate advances in molecular targeted therapies (MTT), as in thyroid cancer and in gastrointestinal neuroendocrine malignancies. However, there is little information regarding the role and efficacy of MTT in the relatively rare malignant endocrine tumours mainly involving the adrenal medulla, adrenal cortex, pituitary, and parathyroid glands. Due to the rarity of these tumours and the lack of prospective studies, current guidelines are mostly based on retrospective data derived from surgical, locoregional and ablative therapies, and studies with systemic chemotherapy. In addition, in many of these malignancies the prognosis remains poor with individual patients responding differently to currently available treatments, necessitating the development of new personalised therapeutic strategies. Recently, major advances in the molecular understanding of endocrine tumours based on genomic, epigenomic, and transcriptome analysis have emerged, resulting in new insights into their pathogenesis and molecular pathology. This in turn has led to the use of novel MTTs in increasing numbers of patients. In this review, we aim to present currently existing and evolving data using MTT in the treatment of adrenal, pituitary and malignant parathyroid tumours, and explore the current utility and effectiveness of such therapies and their future evolution.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone known to suppress phosphate reabsorption and vitamin D hormone production in the kidney. Klotho was originally discovered as an anti-aging factor, but the functional role of Klotho is still a controversial issue. Three major functions have been proposed, a hormonal function of soluble Klotho, an enzymatic function as glycosidase, and the function as an obligatory co-receptor for FGF23 signaling. The purpose of this review is to highlight the recent advances in the area of FGF23 and Klotho signaling in the kidney, in the parathyroid gland, in the cardiovascular system, in bone, and in the central nervous system. During recent years, major new functions of FGF23 and Klotho have been discovered in these organ systems. Based on these novel findings, FGF23 has emerged as a pleiotropic endocrine and auto-/paracrine factor influencing not only mineral metabolism but also cardiovascular function.

Abstract
High circulating levels of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) have been demonstrated in kidney failure, but mechanisms of this are not well understood. Here we examined the impact of the kidney on the early regulation of intact FGF23 in acute uremia as induced by bilateral or unilateral nephrectomy (BNX and UNX, respectively) in the rat. BNX induced a significant increase in plasma intact FGF23 levels from 112 to 267 pg/ml within 15 min, which remained stable thereafter. UNX generated intact FGF23 levels between that seen in BNX and sham-operated rats. The intact to C-terminal FGF23 ratio was significantly increased in BNX rats. The rapid rise in FGF23 after BNX was independent of parathyroid hormone or FGF receptor signaling. No evidence of early stimulation of FGF23 gene expression in the bone was found. Furthermore, acute severe hyperphosphatemia or hypercalcemia had no impact on intact FGF23 levels in normal and BNX rats. The half-life of exogenous recombinant human FGF23 was significantly prolonged from 4.4 to 11.8 min in BNX rats. Measurements of plasma FGF23 in the renal artery and renal vein demonstrated a significant renal extraction. Thus the kidney is important in FGF23 homeostasis by regulation of its plasma level and metabolism.

Abstract
Interactions between sodium and calcium regulating systems are poorly characterized but clinically important. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels are increased shortly after furosemide treatment by an unknown mechanism, and this effect is blunted by the previous administration of a calcimimetic in animal studies. Here, we explored further the possible underlying mechanisms of this observation in a randomized crossover placebo-controlled study performed in 18 human males. Volunteers took either cinacalcet (60 mg) or placebo and received a 20 mg furosemide injection 3 h later. Plasma samples were collected at 15-min intervals and analyzed for intact PTH, calcium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, phosphate, plasma renin activity (PRA), and aldosterone up to 6 h after furosemide injection. Urinary electrolyte excretion was also monitored. Subjects under placebo presented a sharp increase in PTH levels after furosemide injection. In the presence of cinacalcet, PTH levels were suppressed and marginal increase of PTH was observed. No significant changes in electrolytes and urinary excretion were identified that could explain the furosemide-induced increase in PTH levels. PRA and aldosterone were stimulated by furosemide injection but were not affected by previous cinacalcet ingestion. Expression of NKCC1, but not NKCC2, was found in parathyroid tissue. In conclusion, our results indicate that furosemide acutely stimulates PTH secretion in the absence of any detectable electrolyte changes in healthy adults. A possible direct effect of furosemide on parathyroid gland needs further studies.

Abstract
The regulation of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) synthesis and secretion is still incompletely understood. FGF23 is an important regulator of renal phosphate excretion and has regulatory effects on the calciotropic hormones calcitriol and parathyroid hormone (PTH). Calcium (Ca) and phosphate homeostasis are closely interrelated, and it is therefore likely that Ca is involved in FGF23 regulation. It has recently been reported that dietary Ca influenced FGF23 levels, with high Ca increasing FGF23. The mechanism remains to be clarified. It remains unknown whether acute changes in plasma Ca influence FGF23 levels and whether a close relationship, similar that known for Ca and PTH, exists between Ca and FGF23. Thus, the aim of the present study was to examine whether acute hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia regulate FGF23 levels in the rat. Acute hypercalcemia was induced by an intravenous Ca infusion and hypocalcemia by infusion of ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid (EGTA) in normal and acutely parathyroidectomized rats. Intact plasma FGF23 and intact plasma PTH and plasma Ca(2+) and phosphate were measured. Acute hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia resulted as expected in adequate PTH secretory responses. Plasma FGF23 levels remained stable at all plasma Ca(2+) levels; acute parathyroidectomy did not affect FGF23 secretion. In conclusion, Ca is not a regulator of acute changes in FGF23 secretion.

Abstract
Klotho acts as a co-receptor for and dictates tissue specificity of circulating FGF23. FGF23 inhibits PTH secretion, and reduced Klotho abundance is considered a pathogenic factor in renal secondary hyperparathyroidism. To dissect the role of parathyroid gland resident Klotho in health and disease, we generated mice with a parathyroid-specific Klotho deletion (PTH-KL−/−). PTH-KL−/− mice had a normal gross phenotype and survival; normal serum PTH and calcium; unaltered expression of the PTH gene in parathyroid tissue; and preserved PTH response and sensitivity to acute changes in serum calcium. Their PTH response to intravenous FGF23 delivery or renal failure did not differ compared to their wild-type littermates despite disrupted FGF23-induced activation of the MAPK/ERK pathway. Importantly, calcineurin-NFAT signaling, defined by increased MCIP1 level and nuclear localization of NFATC2, was constitutively activated in PTH-KL−/− mice. Treatment with the calcineurin-inhibitor cyclosporine A abolished FGF23-mediated PTH suppression in PTH-KL−/− mice whereas wild-type mice remained responsive. Similar results were observed in thyro-parathyroid explants ex vivo. Collectively, we present genetic and functional evidence for a novel, Klotho-independent, calcineurin-mediated FGF23 signaling pathway in parathyroid glands that mediates suppression of PTH. The presence of Klotho-independent FGF23 effects in a Klotho-expressing target organ represents a paradigm shift in the conceptualization of FGF23 endocrine action. Inorganic calcium is a critical element for a diverse range of cellular processes ranging from cell signaling to energy metabolism, and its extracellular concentration is controlled by parathyroid hormone (PTH). Klotho is expressed in parathyroid chief cells and reported to facilitate PTH secretion during hypocalcemia and mediate FGF23 suppression of PTH synthesis and secretion. To dissect the role of parathyroid Klotho in health and disease, we generated parathyroid-specific Klotho knockout mice. The mutant mice had normal serum levels of PTH and calcium. Further, their parathyroid sensitivity to acute fluctuations in serum calcium and response to FGF23 treatment were preserved, and mutant mice developed secondary hyperparathyroidism of similar magnitude as wild-type mice when challenged with renal failure. A previously unknown parathyroid FGF23 signaling pathway involving calcineurin was constitutively activated in the mutant mice, and blocking this pathway abolished FGF23-induced suppression of PTH secretion. Our data challenges the concepts of Klotho as a mandatory factor for the acute hypocalcemic PTH response and decreased Klotho abundance as a pathogenic factor in secondary hyperparathyroidism. Finally, the presence of Klotho-independent FGF23 effects in a Klotho-expressing target organ represents a paradigm shift in the conceptualization of FGF23 endocrine action.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion is regulated mainly by the calcium sensor receptor. Recently, other components of calcium homoeostasis have been revealed, namely the effect of Klotho on stimulation of PTH secretion by the recruitment of Na-K-ATPase and by its being a cofactor in the inhibitory effect of FGF 23 on PTH secretion. It seems that ouabain, a Na-K-ATPase inhibitor, prevents the increase in PTH secretion in a hypocalcemic environment, as observed in mouse and bovine tissues. We hypothesized that digoxin, which is similar to ouabain in its effect on the sodium pump, might decrease PTH levels in humans. METHODS Twenty patients with atrial fibrillation were studied. Ten patients were treated with digoxin and the other ten patients with verapamil. Baseline chemistry parameters were determined and 0·25 mg digoxin injected. Plasma PTH concentrations, ionized calcium concentrations and digoxin levels were recorded at 30 min, 1 h, 2 h and 4 h postinjection. RESULTS Baseline blood parameters were similar in both groups. In the control group plasma PTH concentrations increased, whereas in the digoxin group, they decreased. Ionized calcium concentrations did not change over time in either groups. There seemed to be blunting of the circadian rhythm of PTH levels in the morning hours. CONCLUSIONS Although the patients were normocalcemic, plasma PTH concentrations decreased with digoxin treatment. The effect of the sodium pump on PTH secretion might be important in human PTH homoeostasis and might be a potential target for the treatment of disturbances in calcium homoeostasis.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca(2+)) and phosphate (PO(4)(3-)) homeostasis are coordinated by systemic and local factors that regulate intestinal absorption, influx and efflux from bone, and kidney excretion and reabsorption of these ions through a complex hormonal network. Traditionally, the parathyroid hormone (PTH)/vitamin D axis provided the conceptual framework to understand mineral metabolism. PTH secreted by the parathyroid gland in response to hypocalcemia functions to maintain serum Ca(2+) levels by increasing Ca(2+) reabsorption and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)(2)D] production by the kidney, enhancing Ca(2+) and PO(4)(3-) intestinal absorption and increasing Ca(2+) and PO(4)(3-) efflux from bone, while maintaining neutral phosphate balance through phosphaturic effects. FGF23 is a recently discovered hormone, predominately produced by osteoblasts/osteocytes, whose major functions are to inhibit renal tubular phosphate reabsorption and suppress circulating 1,25(OH)(2)D levels by decreasing Cyp27b1-mediated formation and stimulating Cyp24-mediated catabolism of 1,25(OH)(2)D. FGF23 participates in a new bone/kidney axis that protects the organism from excess vitamin D and coordinates renal PO(4)(3-) handling with bone mineralization/turnover. Abnormalities of FGF23 production underlie many inherited and acquired disorders of phosphate homeostasis. This review discusses the known and emerging functions of FGF23, its regulation in response to systemic and local signals, as well as the implications of FGF23 in different pathological and physiological contexts.

Abstract
Parathormone (PTH) and vitamin D are two critical hormonal regulators of calcium homeostasis. An important cross-talk exists between the PTH and vitamin D hormonal systems. PTH enhances vitamin D hydroxylation on carbon 1 in kidney cells thereby allowing the systemic release of 1-25-dihydroxy-vitamin D, which represents the fully active hormone. Conversely, parathyroid gland represents a direct target for vitamin D. Parathyroid cells express the vitamin D receptor and the 1-α-hydroxylase enzyme, which allows the local formation of 1-25-dihydroxy-vitamin D. Because of its potential implication in several diseases, including osteoporosis or chronic kidney disease, the interplay between PTH and vitamin D has received considerable attention these last two decades. The aim of this review is to summarize our current understanding of the molecular basis of vitamin D action and metabolism in parathyroid cells. The potential clinical implications of the recent advances made in this field will also be discussed.

Abstract
Impaired kidney function and subsequent skeletal responses play a critical role in disrupting phosphate balance in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD). In patients with CKD-MBD, the inability of the kidney to maintain normal mineral ion balance affects bone remodeling to induce skeletal fracture and extraskeletal vascular calcification. In physiological conditions, bone-derived fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) acts on the kidney to reduce serum phosphate and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D levels. In humans, increased bioactivity of FGF23 leads to increased urinary phosphate excretion, which induces hypophosphatemic diseases (e.g., rickets/osteomalacia). However, reduced FGF23 activity is associated with hyperphosphatemic diseases (e.g., tumoral calcinosis). In patients with CKD, high serum levels of FGF23 fail to reduce serum phosphate levels and lead to numerous complications, including vascular calcification, one of the important determinants of mortality of CKD-MBD patients. Of particular significance, molecular, biochemical and morphological changes in patients with CKD-MBD are mostly due to osteo-renal dysregulation of mineral ion metabolism. Furthermore, hyperphosphatemia can partly contribute to the development of secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with CKD-MBD. Relatively new pharmacological agents including sevelamer hydrochloride, calcitriol analogs and cinacalcet hydrochloride are used either alone, or in combination, to minimize hyperphosphatemia and hyperparathyroidism associated complications to improve morbidity and mortality of CKD-MBD patients. This article will briefly summarize how osteo-renal miscommunication can induce phosphate toxicity, resulting in extensive tissue injuries.
