[PMID: 37048797 PMCID: PMC10094844 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12072714] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2023] [Revised: 03/26/2023] [Accepted: 04/01/2023] [Indexed: 04/14/2023] Open
Abstract
The term osteomalacia (OM) refers to a series of processes characterized by altered mineralization of the skeleton, which can be caused by various disorders of mineral metabolism. OM can be genetically determined or occur due to acquired disorders, among which the nutritional origin is particularly relevant, due to its wide epidemiological extension and its nature as a preventable disease. Among the hereditary diseases associated with OM, the most relevant is X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), which manifests in childhood, although its consequences persist into adulthood where it can acquire specific clinical characteristics, and, although rare, there are XLH cases that reach the third or fourth decade of life without a diagnosis. Some forms of OM present very subtle initial manifestations which cause both considerable diagnosis and treatment delay. On occasions, the presence of osteopenia and fragility fractures leads to an erroneous diagnosis of osteoporosis, which may imply the prescription of antiresorptive drugs (i.e., bisphosphonates or denosumab) with catastrophic consequences for OM bone. On the other hand, some radiological features of OM can be confused with those of axial spondyloarthritis and lead to erroneous diagnoses. The current prevalence of OM is not known and is very likely that its incidence is much higher than previously thought. Moreover, OM explains part of the therapeutic failures that occur in patients diagnosed with other bone diseases. Therefore, it is essential that clinicians who treat adult skeletal diseases take into account the considerations provided in this practical review when focusing on the diagnosis and treatment of their patients with bone diseases.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by mesenchymal tumors that secrete fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). Patients present with progressive bone pain, muscle weakness, and fragility fractures. TIO is characterized by hypophosphatemia, excess renal phosphate excretion, and low/inappropriately normal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2 D) levels. Rarity and enigmatic clinical presentation of TIO contribute to limited awareness among the medical community. Accordingly, appropriate diagnostic tests may not be requested, leading to delayed diagnosis and poorer patient outcomes. We have developed a global guidance document to improve the knowledge of TIO in the medical community, enabling the recognition of patients with TIO and appropriate referral. We provide recommendations aiding diagnosis, referral, and treatment, helping promote a global standard of patient management. We reviewed the literature and conducted a three-round Delphi survey of TIO experts. Statements were drafted based on published evidence and expert opinions (≥70% consensus required for final recommendations). Serum phosphate should be measured in patients presenting with chronic muscle pain or weakness, fragility fractures, or bone pain. Physical examination should establish features of myopathy and identify masses that could be causative tumors. Priority laboratory evaluations should include urine/serum phosphate and creatinine to assess renal tubular reabsorption of phosphate and TmP/GFR, alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 1,25(OH)2 D, and FGF23. Patients with the clinical/biochemical suspicion of TIO should be referred to a specialist for diagnosis confirmation, and functional imaging should be used to localize causative tumor(s). Recommended treatment is tumor resection or, with unresectable/unidentifiable tumors, phosphate salts plus active vitamin D, or burosumab.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Phosphate is crucial for cell signaling, energy metabolism, nucleotide synthesis, and bone mineralization. The gut-bone-parathyroid-kidney axis is influenced by parathyroid hormone, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, and phosphatonins, especially fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). These hormones facilitate maintenance of phosphate homeostasis. This review summarizes current knowledge regarding the phosphate homeostasis, phosphatonin pathophysiology, and clinical implications of FGF23-related hypophosphatemic disorders, with specific focus on burosumab treatment. METHOD A focused literature search of PubMed was conducted. RESULTS Phosphatonins including FGF23, secreted frizzled-related protein 4, matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein, and fibroblast growth factor 7 play a pathogenic role in several hypophosphatemic disorders. Excess FGF23 inhibits sodium-dependent phosphate cotransporters (NaPi-2a and NaPi-2c), resulting in hyperphosphaturia and hypophosphatemia. Additionally, FGF23 suppresses 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D synthesis in the proximal renal tubule, and thus, it indirectly inhibits intestinal phosphate absorption. Disorders of FGF23-related hypophosphatemia include X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets, autosomal recessive hypophosphatemic rickets, fibrous dysplasia/McCune-Albright syndrome, and tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO). Complications of conventional therapy with oral phosphate and vitamin D analogs comprise gastrointestinal distress, hypercalcemia, nephrocalcinosis, and secondary/tertiary hyperparathyroidism. In both children and adults with XLH and TIO, the anti-FGF23 antibody burosumab exhibits a favorable safety profile and is associated with healing of rickets in affected children and improvement of osteomalacia in both children and adults. CONCLUSION The treatment paradigm for XLH and TIO is changing based on data from recent clinical trials. Research suggest that burosumab is effective and safe for pediatric and adult patients with XLH or TIO.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare and largely underdiagnosed paraneoplastic condition. Previous reviews often reported incomplete data on clinical aspects, diagnosis or prognosis. The aim of this study was to present a systematic clinical review of all published cases of TIO. A search was conducted in Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science from inception until April 23rd, 2020. We selected case reports and case series of patients diagnosed with TIO, with information on tumor localization and serum phosphate concentration. Two reviewers independently extracted data on biochemical and clinical characteristics including bone involvement, tumor localization and treatment. 468 articles with 895 unique TIO cases were included. Median age was 46 years (range 9 months-90 years) and 58.3% were males. Hypophosphatemia and inappropriately low or normal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D levels, characteristic for TIO, were present in 98% of cases. Median tumor size was 2.7 cm (range 0.5 to 25.0 cm). Serum fibroblast growth factor 23 was related to tumor size (r = 0.344, P < 0.001). In 32% of the cases the tumor was detected by physical examination. Data on bone phenotype confirmed skeletal involvement: 62% of cases with BMD data had a T-score of the lumbar spine ≤ - 2.5 (n = 61/99) and a fracture was reported in at least 39% of all cases (n = 346/895). Diagnostic delay was longer than 2 years in more than 80% of cases. 10% were reported to be malignant at histology. In conclusion, TIO is a debilitating disease characterized by a long diagnostic delay leading to metabolic disturbances and skeletal impairment. Increasing awareness of TIO should decrease its diagnostic delay and the clinical consequences.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES X-Linked hypophosphataemic rickets (XLH) is a rare multi-systemic disease of mineral homeostasis that has a prominent skeletal phenotype. The aim of this study was to describe additional comorbidities in XLH patients compared with general population controls. METHODS The Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) GOLD was used to identify a cohort of XLH patients (1995-2016), along with a non-XLH cohort matched (1 : 4) on age, sex and GP practice. Using the CALIBER portal, phenotyping algorithms were used to identify the first diagnosis (and associated age) of 273 comorbid conditions during patient follow-up. Fifteen major disease categories were used and the proportion of patients having ≥1 diagnosis was compared between cohorts for each category and condition. Main analyses were repeated according to the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD). RESULTS There were 64 and 256 patients in the XLH and non-XLH cohorts, respectively. There was increased prevalence of endocrine [OR 3.46 (95% CI: 1.44, 8.31)] and neurological [OR 3.01 (95% CI: 1.41, 6.44)] disorders among XLH patients. Across all specific comorbidities, four were at least twice as likely to be present in XLH cases, but only depression met the Bonferroni threshold: OR 2.95 (95% CI: 1.47, 5.92). Distribution of IMD among XLH cases indicated greater deprivation than the general population. CONCLUSION We describe a higher risk of mental illness in XLH patients compared with matched controls, and greater than expected deprivation. These findings may have implications for clinical practice guidelines and decisions around health and social care provision for these patients.

Abstract
METHODS Seventy-six patients who had surgically removed tumors that caused osteomalacia were included in this retrospective investigation. All patients underwent both 18F-FDG and 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT prior to surgery. The prognostic value of presurgical FDG PET/CT study was determined with 5-year follow-up. RESULTS In the presurgical evaluation, 68Ga-DOTATATE detected lesions in all 76 patients. However, FDG PET/CT was positive in only 25 among all 76 patients. Following surgical removal of the causative tumor, all 76 patients had symptomatic relief and normalization of the serum phosphate level initially. However, 15 of 76 cases (19.7%) had recurrent hypophosphatemia and became symptomatic again during the follow-up. Among these 15 patients with recurrence, 11 (73.3%) had recurrent lesions at the original location of the resected causative tumors, whereas 4 were in other locations due to malignant nature of the primary tumor. Interestingly, 14 of these 15 patients with recurrent disease had positive presurgical FDG PET/CT findings with an incident ratio of 56.0% (14 of 25). In contrast, only 1 patient with recurrent disease had negative presurgical FDG PET/CT scan with an incident ratio of 1.9% (1 of 51), significantly less than the positive presurgical FDG PET/CT group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS A positive presurgical FDG PET/CT suggests increased likelihood for possible recurrence of TIO after surgical resection. In contrast, when a causative tumor detected by 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT does not have elevated activity on FDG PET/CT, the chance of recurrence is very small.

Abstract
BACKGROUND X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare multisystemic disease with a prominent musculoskeletal phenotype. We aim here to improve understanding of the prevalence of XLH across the life course and of overall survival among people with XLH. METHODS This was a population-based cohort study using a large primary care database in the United Kingdom (UK) from 1995 to 2016. XLH cases were matched by age, gender, and practice to up to 4 controls. Trends in prevalence over the study period were estimated (stratified by age) and survival among cases was compared with that of controls. FINDINGS From 522 potential cases, 122 (23.4%) were scored as at least possible XLH, while 62 (11.9%) were classified as highly likely or likely (conservative definition). In main analyses, prevalence (95% CI) increased from 3.1 (1.5-6.7) per million in 1995-1999 to 14.0 (10.8-18.1) per million in 2012-2016. Corresponding estimates using the conservative definition were 3.0 (1.4-6.5) to 8.1 (5.8-11.4). Nine (7.4%) of the possible cases died during follow-up, at median age of 64 years. Fourteen (2.9%) of the controls died at median age of 72.5 years. Mortality was significantly increased in those with possible XLH compared with controls (hazard ratio [HR] 2.93; 95% CI, 1.24-6.91). Likewise, among those with likely or highly likely XLH (HR 6.65; 1.44-30.72). CONCLUSIONS We provide conservative estimates of the prevalence of XLH in children and adults within the UK. There was an unexpected increase in mortality in later life, which may have implications for other fibroblast growth factor 23-related disorders.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), also known as oncogenic osteomalacia, is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome characterized by hypophosphatemia resulting from decreased tubular phosphate reabsorption, with a low or inappropriately normal level of active vitamin D. The culprit tumors of TIO could produce fibroblast growth factor 23 which plays a role in regulating renal Pi handling and 25-hydroxyvitamin D 1α-hydroxylase activity. Chronic hypophosphatemia could eventually lead to inadequate bone mineralization, presenting as osteomalacia. The diagnosis should be considered when patients manifest as hypophosphatemia and osteomalacia, or rickets and needs to be differentiated from other disorders of phosphate metabolism, such as the inhereditary diseases like X-linked hypophosphataemic rickets, autosomal dominant hypophosphataemic rickets, autosomal recessive hypophosphataemic rickets and acquired diseases like vitamin D deficiency. Localization of responsible tumors could be rather difficult since the vast majority are very small and could be everywhere in the body. A combination of thorough physical examination, laboratory tests and imaging techniques should be applied and sometimes a venous sampling may come into handy. The technology of somatostatin-receptor functional scintigraphy markedly facilitates the localization of TIO tumor. Patients undergoing complete removal of the causative neoplasm generally have favorable prognoses while a few have been reported to suffer from recurrence and metastasis. For those undetectable or unresectable cases, phosphate supplements and active vitamin D should be administrated and curative intended radiotherapy or ablation is optional.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), also known as "oncogenic osteomalacia", is a rare cause of osteomalacia. TIO often has an insidious onset characterized clinically by progressive muscle weakness and bone pain with fractures. The hallmark biochemical finding is a persistent low serum phosphorus concentration due to renal phosphate wasting. The vast majority of cases of TIO result from production of the phosphaturic hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) by a histologically distinctive mesenchymal tumor, termed "phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor" (PMT). Circulating FGF23 induces internalization of renal sodium/phosphate co-transporters resulting in reduced proximal tubular phosphate reabsorption. FGF23 also inhibits production of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D which is inappropriately low or normal in the context of hypophosphatemia. Diagnosis is often delayed owing to the rarity of the condition and an underappreciation for the role of phosphorus as a cause for the constellation of symptoms. Primary treatment for TIO is identification of the offending tumor and surgical removal. However, these tumors are notoriously difficult to find, precluding the opportunity for a curative surgery in many. In such cases, phosphate and calcitriol therapy is used to improve symptoms and heal the osteomalacia. Recently, molecular genetic studies have shown recurrent genetic events in PMT, including the novel fusions FN1-FGFR1 and less commonly FN1-FGF1. These fusion events are hypothesized to result in autocrine/paracrine signaling loops within the tumor, spurring tumorigenesis. This review will cover the clinical features, imaging characteristics, pathologic features, molecular genetic aspects, and therapy of PMT, with a brief discussion of other neoplasms that may cause TIO.

Abstract
Phosphate homeostasis in humans is a complex phenomenon involving the interplay of several different organs and circulating hormones. Among the latter, parathyroid hormone (PTH), and vitamin D3 (Vit D3) were thought to be the main regulators of serum phosphate concentration since they mediated the intestinal, renal and bone responses that follow fluctuations in serum phosphate levels. The study of three rare disorders – tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR) and X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) – has offered a completely new insight into phosphate metabolism by unraveling the role of a group of peptides that can directly affect serum phosphate concentration by increasing urinary phosphate excretion. Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) is the most extensively studied “phosphatonin”. The production, mechanism of action, effects in various target tissues, and its role in common clinical disorders are the focus of this review.

Abstract
Although phosphorus is an essential nutrient required for multiple physiological functions, recent research raises concerns that high phosphorus intake could have detrimental effects on health. Phosphorus is abundant in the food supply of developed countries, occurring naturally in protein-rich foods and as an additive in processed foods. High phosphorus intake can cause vascular and renal calcification, renal tubular injury, and premature death in multiple animal models. Small studies in human suggest that high phosphorus intake may result in positive phosphorus balance and correlate with renal calcification and albuminuria. Although serum phosphorus is strongly associated with cardiovascular disease, progression of kidney disease, and death, limited data exist linking high phosphorus intake directly to adverse clinical outcomes. Further prospective studies are needed to determine whether phosphorus intake is a modifiable risk factor for kidney disease.

Abstract
Context Tumor induced osteomalacia related to anaplastic thyroid cancer has never been reported. Objective We describe a case of tumor induced osteomalacia (TIO) in a patient with a fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) secreting anaplastic thyroid carcinoma. The current imaging modalities are reviewed. Design and intervention Clinical, biochemical, and radiological assessments were done, including computer tomography (CT) of the neck and skull to thigh positron emission tomography (PET)/CT. The patient underwent surgical tumor debulking three days after presentation due to airway compromise. Molecular studies of the resected tissue were performed using reverse transcriptase–polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and gel electrophoresis for the phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor FGF-23. Results Resected tissue demonstrated features of anaplastic thyroid cancer with positive markers for FGF-23 protein, consistent with a FGF-23 secreting paraneoplastic tumor. The patient's metastatic burden rapidly progressed as demonstrated by a dramatic rise in serum FGF-23 levels and worsening hypophosphatemia in concert with progression of the metastatic lesions on PET/CT. Conclusion We believe that our patient's rapidly progressive anaplastic thyroid cancer was responsible for persistent hypophosphatemia and osteomalacia, substantiated by the finding of FGF-23 protein within the thyroid tumor cells. Our case indicates that anaplastic thyroid cancer can cause TIO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome, usually caused by small benign mesenchymal tumors. The localization of these tumors is challenging, however, essential for the management. We compared the utility of F-FDG PET/CT and Ga DOTATATE PET/CT to detect the site of primary tumor in patients with suspicion of TIO. PATIENTS AND METHODS Retrospective analysis of 6 patients with hypophosphatemic osteomalacia and suspicion of TIO was performed. Ga DOTATATE PET/CT study was performed in all 6 patients to localize the tumor. F-FDG PET/CT was performed in 4 of 6 patients. F-FDG and Ga DOTATATE PET/CT studies were performed within 1 week of each other. Both studies were interpreted blindly without the knowledge of other imaging findings. RESULTS All patients had symptoms of osteomalacia and hypophosphatemia. All except 1 patient had increased level of fibroblast growth factor 23. The lag time (symptoms to PET diagnosis) ranged from 1.5 to 22 years. In 4 patients, where both studies were performed, F-FDG and Ga DOTATATE PET/CT were able to localize the tumor in 2 and 3 patients. Ga DOTATATE PET/CT detected tumor in 5 (83.3%) of 6 patients. CONCLUSIONS Ga DOTATATE PET/CT performed better than F-FDG PET/CT and is useful in the detection of tumors causing oncogenic osteomalacia. Therefore, in clinically suspected cases of hypophosphatemic osteomalacia, Ga DOTATATE PET/CT may be performed as first-line imaging investigation to avoid delay in the treatment of this devastating but curable disease. However, further studies with large patient population are warranted to validate our data.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) has emerged as an important regulator of phosphate and vitamin D homeostasis. It is important to understand how FGF23 interacts with vitamin D and parathyroid hormone (PTH) in a FGF23-Vitamin D-PTH axis to regulate mineral homeostasis. In this review, we discuss the genomic structure, and transcriptional, translational, and posttranslational regulation of FGF23. We describe its interaction with PTH and vitamin D, disorders of altered FGF23 states, and emerging therapies for diseases of FGF23 based upon these findings. This discussion helps redefine the role of PTH and vitamin D in relation to a complex bone-kidney-parathyroid loop, and points to areas within this complicated field in need of further clarification and research.

Abstract
Hyperphosphatemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients is a potentially life altering condition that can lead to cardiovascular calcification, metabolic bone disease (renal osteodystrophy) and the development of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). It is also associated with increased prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and mortality rates. To effectively manage hyperphosphatemia in CKD patients it is important to not only consider pharmacological and nonpharmacological treatment options but also to understand the underlying physiologic pathways involved in phosphorus homoeostasis. This review will therefore provide both a background into phosphorus homoeostasis and the management of hyperphosphatemia in CKD patients. In addition, it will cover some of the most important reasons for failure to control hyperphosphatemia with emphasis on the effect of the gastric pH on phosphate binders efficiency.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone that acts on the proximal tubule to decrease phosphate reabsorption and serum levels of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D₃ [1,25(OH)₂ Vitamin D₃]. Abnormal FGF23 metabolism has been implicated in several debilitating hypophosphatemic and hyperphosphatemic disorders. The renal receptors responsible for the phosphaturic actions of FGF23 have not been elucidated. There are four fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR); 1-4 with "b" and "c" isoforms for receptors 1, 2, and 3. FGFR1, 3, and 4 are expressed in the mouse proximal tubule, and deletion of any one receptor did not affect serum phosphate levels, suggesting that more than one receptor is involved in mediating the phosphaturic actions of FGF23. To determine the receptors responsible for the phosphaturic actions of FGF23, we studied Fgfr1 (kidney conditional) and Fgfr4 (global) double mutant mice (Fgfr1⁻/⁻/Fgfr4⁻/⁻). Fgfr1⁻/⁻/Fgfr4⁻/⁻ mice have higher FGF23 levels than their wild-type counterparts (108.1 ± 7.3 vs. 4,953.6 ± 675.0 pg/ml; P < 0.001). Despite the elevated FGF23 levels, Fgfr1⁻/⁻/Fgfr4⁻/⁻ mice have elevated serum phosphorus levels, increased brush-border membrane vesicle (BBMV) phosphate transport, and increased Na-P(i) cotransporter 2c (NaPi-2c) protein expression compared with wild-type mice. These data are consistent with FGFR1 and FGFR4 being the critical receptors for the phosphaturic actions of FGF23.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare disease entity characterized by clinical pictures of recurrent multiple fractures and biochemical features of phosphaturia, hypophosphatemia, and low vitamin D levels. Most often TIO is caused by benign soft tissue tumors. The main issue in management of such patients is proper tumor localization, as these tumors are small and often located at obscure sites. We describe a case of TIO where residual disease was clinically suspected after tumor resection and subsequently detected using Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of this study is to review the regulation of phosphate and recent progress in fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23), a key phosphate regulatory hormone. RECENT FINDINGS Phosphate is required for mineralization of bone, muscle strength and a host of biologic functions. Phosphate is sensed by bone that responds with secretion of FGF-23. The major action of FGF-23 is to stimulate phosphaturia. Feedback loops between FGF-23, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and parathyroid hormone maintain phosphate homeostasis. Information about FGF-23 has accumulated from studies in patients with oncogenic osteomalacia and inherited disorders of phosphate wasting rickets that explains the pathophysiology. Exciting new discoveries have highlighted FGF-23 as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease in patients with chronic kidney disease. The phosphate sensor triggering FGF-23 production remains to be identified. SUMMARY Derangements in FGF-23 production, half-life or downstream response are responsible for several disorders of phosphate wasting, rickets and oncogenic osteomalacia. Very high levels of FGF-23 in renal failure are an independent risk for cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Tumor induced osteomalacia (TIO) or oncogenic osteomalacia is a rare condition associated with small tumor that secretes one of the phosphaturic hormones, i.e., fibroblast growth factor 23, resulting in abnormal phosphate metabolism. Patients may present with non-specific symptoms leading to delay in the diagnosis. Extensive skeletal involvement is frequently seen due to delay in the diagnosis and treatment. The small sized tumor and unexpected location make the identification of tumor difficult even after diagnosis of osteogenic osteomalacia. The bone scan done for the skeletal involvement may show the presence of metabolic features and the scan findings are a sensitive indicator of metabolic bone disorders. We present the bone scan findings in three patients diagnosed to have TIO.

Abstract
Phosphorus is a common anion. It plays an important role in energy generation. Renal phosphate handling is regulated by three organs parathyroid, kidney and bone through feedback loops. These counter regulatory loops also regulate intestinal absorption and thus maintain serum phosphorus concentration in physiologic range. The parathyroid hormone, vitamin D, Fibrogenic growth factor 23 (FGF23) and klotho coreceptor are the key regulators of phosphorus balance in body.

Abstract
A decade ago, only two hormones, parathyroid hormone and 1,25(OH)2D, were widely recognized to directly affect phosphate homeostasis. Since the discovery of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) in 2000 (1), our understanding of the mechanisms of phosphate homeostasis and of bone mineralization has grown exponentially. FGF23 is the link between intestine, bone, and kidney together in phosphate regulation. However, we still do not know the complex mechanism of phosphate homeostasis and bone mineralization. The physiological role of FGF23 is to regulate serum phosphate. Secreted mainly by osteocytes and osteoblasts in the skeleton (2,3), it modulates kidney handling of phosphate reabsorption and calcitriol production. Genetic and acquired abnormalities in FGF23 structure and metabolism cause conditions of either hyper-FGF23 or hypo-FGF23. Hyper-FGF23 is related to hypophosphatemia, while hypo-FGF23 is related to hyperphosphatemia. Both hyper-FGF23 and hypo-FGF23 are detrimental to humans. In this review, we will discuss the pathophysiology of FGF23 and hyper-FGF23 related renal phosphate wasting disorders (4).

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone that regulates and is regulated by blood levels of phosphate and active vitamin D. Post-translational glycosylation by the enzyme GALNT3 and subsequent processing by furin have been demonstrated to be a regulated process that plays a role in regulating FGF23 levels. In physiologic states, FGF23 signaling is mediated by an FGF receptor and the coreceptor, Klotho. Recent work identifying a role for iron/hypoxia pathways in FGF23 physiology and their implications are discussed. Beyond its importance in primary disorders of mineral metabolism, recent work implicates FGF23 in renal disease-associated morbidity, as well as possible roles in cardiovascular disease and skeletal fragility.

Abstract
Regulation of phosphate homeostasis is critical for many biological processes, and both hypophosphatemia and hyperphosphatemia can have adverse clinical consequences. Only a very small percentage (1%) of total body phosphate is present in the extracellular fluid, which is measured by routine laboratory assays and does not reflect total body phosphate stores. Phosphate is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract via the transcellular route [sodium phosphate cotransporter 2b (NaPi2b)] and across the paracellular pathway. Approximately 85% of the filtered phosphate is reabsorbed from the kidney, predominantly in the proximal tubule, by NaPi2a and NaPi2c, which are present on the brush border membrane. Renal phosphate transport is tightly regulated. Dietary phosphate intake, parathyroid hormone (PTH), 1,25 (OH)2 vitamin D3, and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) are the principal regulators of phosphate reabsorption from the kidney. Recent advances in genetic techniques and animal models have identified many genetic disorders of phosphate homeostasis. Mutations in NaPi2a and NaPi2c; and hormonal dysregulation of PTH, FGF23, and Klotho, are primarily responsible for most genetic disorders of phosphate transport. The main focus of this educational review article is to discuss the genetic and clinical features of phosphate regulation disorders and provide understanding and treatment options.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Fibroblast growth factor 23 plays an important role in regulating phosphate and vitamin D homeostasis. Elevated levels of fibroblast growth factor 23 are independently associated with mortality in patients with CKD and ESRD. Whether fibroblast growth factor 23 levels are elevated and associated with adverse outcomes in patients with AKI has not been studied. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS This study had 30 participants with AKI, which was defined as an increase in serum creatinine ≥ 0.3 mg/dl or ≥ 50% from baseline, and 30 controls from the general hospital wards and intensive care units. Plasma levels of C-terminal fibroblast growth factor 23 and vitamin D metabolites were measured within 24 hours of AKI onset and 5 days later. The composite endpoint was death or need for renal replacement therapy. RESULTS Enrollment fibroblast growth factor 23 levels were significantly higher among participants with AKI than controls (median [interquartile range]=1471 [224-2534] versus 263 [96-574] RU/ml, P=0.003). Enrollment fibroblast growth factor 23 correlated negatively with 25-hydroxyvitamin D (r=-0.43, P<0.001) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (r=-0.39, P=0.003) and positively with phosphate (r=0.32, P=0.02) and parathyroid hormone (r=0.37, P=0.005). Among participants with AKI, enrollment fibroblast growth factor 23 (but not other serum parameters) was significantly associated with the composite endpoint, even after adjusting for age and enrollment serum creatinine (11 events; adjusted odds ratio per 1 SD higher ln[fibroblast growth factor 23]=13.73, 95% confidence interval=1.75-107.50). CONCLUSIONS Among patients with AKI, fibroblast growth factor 23 levels are elevated and associated with greater risk of death or need for renal replacement therapy.

Review of the literature reveals that the type II sodium phosphate cotransporters play a significant role in transepithelial transport in a number of tissues including kidney, intestine, salivary gland, mammary gland, and lung. The type I transporters seem to play a major role in renal urate handling and mutations in these proteins have been implicated in susceptibility to gout. The ubiquitously expressed type III transporters play a lesser role in phosphate homeostasis but contribute to cellular phosphate uptake, mineralization, and inflammation. The recognition of species differences in the expression, regulation, and function of these transport proteins suggests an urgent need to find ways to study them in humans.

Abstract
Hypocalcemia is common in the critically ill patient. In this population, however, the diagnosis of hypocalcemia is complicated by limitations in the interpretation of the total plasma calcium concentration. These limitations are principally the result of the effects of hypoalbuminemia and disorders of acid-base balance on the total calcium concentration. Thus, measurement of ionized calcium can be critical in determining an individual's true serum calcium status. In this review, we first describe the regulation of normal calcium metabolism and then focus on the various etiologies of hypocalcemia, including congenital and acquired disorders of parathyroid hormone and vitamin D, which are encountered in the neonatal, pediatric, and adult critical care settings. The approach to the treatment of hypocalcemia and the current consensus on treatment of hypocalcemia in the critically ill patient is also presented.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a phosphaturic hormone implicated in the pathogenesis of several hypophosphatemic disorders. FGF23 causes hypophosphatemia by decreasing the expression of sodium phosphate cotransporters (NaPi-2a and NaPi-2c) and decreasing serum 1,25(OH)(2)Vitamin D(3) levels. We previously showed that FGFR1 is the predominant receptor for the hypophosphatemic actions of FGF23 by decreasing renal NaPi-2a and 2c expression while the receptors regulating 1,25(OH)(2)Vitamin D(3) levels remained elusive. To determine the FGFRs regulating 1,25(OH)(2)Vitamin D(3) levels, we studied FGFR3(-/-)FGFR4(-/-) mice as these mice have shortened life span and are growth retarded similar to FGF23(-/-) and Klotho(-/-) mice. Baseline serum 1,25(OH)(2)Vitamin D(3) levels were elevated in the FGFR3(-/-)FGFR4(-/-) mice compared with wild-type mice (102.2 ± 14.8 vs. 266.0 ± 34.0 pmol/l; P = 0.001) as were the serum levels of FGF23. Administration of recombinant FGF23 had no effect on serum 1,25(OH)(2)Vitamin D(3) in the FGFR3(-/-)FGFR4(-/-) mice (173.4 ± 32.7 vs. 219.7 ± 56.5 pmol/l; vehicle vs. FGF23) while it reduced serum 1,25(OH)(2)Vitamin D(3) levels in wild-type mice. Administration of FGF23 to FGFR3(-/-)FGFR4(-/-) mice resulted in a decrease in serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels and an increase in serum phosphorus levels mediated by increased renal phosphate reabsorption. These data indicate that FGFR3 and 4 are the receptors that regulate serum 1,25(OH)(2)Vitamin D(3) levels in response to FGF23. In addition, when 1,25(OH)(2)Vitamin D(3) levels are not affected by FGF23, as in FGFR3(-/-)FGFR4(-/-) mice, a reduction in PTH can override the effects of FGF23 on renal phosphate transport.

Abstract
Discussion. Oncogenic osteomalacia is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome
of skeletal demineralization from renal phosphate loss. Patients with this disorder have the
characteristic clinical, laboratory, and radiographic findings of hyperphosphaturic
osteomalacia. Although the pathophysiology has not yet been clearly delineated, a humoral
factor produced by the tumor is suspected to be the cause. Purpose. We report the first case of oncogenic osteomalacia that
improved with chemotherapy, discuss this paraneoplastic syndrome, and review the
medical literature regarding its etiology.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare and fascinating paraneoplastic syndrome in which patients present with bone pain, fractures, and muscle weakness. The cause is high blood levels of the recently identified phosphate and vitamin D-regulating hormone, fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). In TIO, FGF23 is secreted by mesenchymal tumors that are usually benign, but are typically very small and difficult to locate. FGF23 acts primarily at the renal tubule and impairs phosphate reabsorption and 1α-hydroxylation of 25-hydroxyvitamin D, leading to hypophosphatemia and low levels of 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D. A step-wise approach utilizing functional imaging (F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and octreotide scintigraphy) followed by anatomical imaging (computed tomography and/or magnetic resonance imaging), and, if needed, selective venous sampling with measurement of FGF23 is usually successful in locating the tumors. For tumors that cannot be located, medical treatment with phosphate supplements and active vitamin D (calcitriol or alphacalcidiol) is usually successful; however, the medical regimen can be cumbersome and associated with complications. This review summarizes the current understanding of the pathophysiology of the disease and provides guidance in evaluating and treating these patients. Novel imaging modalities and medical treatments, which hold promise for the future, are also reviewed.

Abstract
Until a decade ago, two main hormones were recognized as directly affecting phosphate homeostasis and, with that, bone metabolism: parathyroid hormone and 1,25(OH)(2) vitamin D (calcitriol). It was only a decade ago that the third major player hormone was found, linking gut, bone, and kidney. The physiologic role of fibrinogen growth factor (FGF)23 is to maintain serum phosphate concentration within a narrow range. Secreted from osteocytes, it modulates kidney handling of phosphate reabsorption and calcitriol production. Genetic and acquired abnormalities in FGF23 structure and metabolism cause conditions of either hyper-FGF23-manifested by hypophosphatemia, low serum calcitriol, and rickets/osteomalacia-or hypo-FGF23, expressed by hyperphosphatemia, high serum calcitriol, and extra-skeletal calcifications. In patients with chronic renal failure, FGF23 levels increase as kidney functions deteriorate and are under investigation to learn if the hormone actually participates in the pathophysiology of the deranged bone and mineral metabolism typical for these patients and, if so, whether it might serve as a therapeutic target. This review addresses the physiology and pathophysiology of FGF23 and its clinical applications.

Abstract
Oncogenic osteomalacia (OO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome, with only 100 reported cases in the literature. The majority of OO-associated mesenchymal tumors are due to a lesion called phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor, mixed connective tissue (PMTMCT) variant. There have been only 6 reported cases of OO of the spine. With this paper the authors present a case of OO of the cervical spine in a patient who initially presented with multiple pathological fractures of unknown cause, and who eventually underwent staged C-5 spondylectomy followed by circumferential stabilization. Resection of the cervical lesion led to resolution of his hypophosphatemia and prevention of any further pathological fractures. The authors describe a rare cervical neoplasm, its treatment, and review the literature on this rare bony pathological entity.

Abstract
Phosphorus is an essential nutrient and is routinely assimilated through consumption of food. The body's need of phosphate is usually fulfilled by intestinal absorption of this element from the consumed food, whereas its serum level is tightly regulated by renal excretion or reabsorption. Sodium-dependent phosphate transporters, located in the luminal side of the proximal tubular epithelial cells, have a molecular control on renal phosphate excretion and reabsorption. The systemic regulation of phosphate metabolism is a complex multiorgan process, and the identification of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23)-Klotho system as a potent phosphatonin has provided new mechanistic insights into the homeostatic control of phosphate. Hypophosphatemia as a result of an increase in urinary phosphate wasting after activation of the FGF23-Klotho system is a common phenomenon, observed in both animal and human studies, whereas suppression of the FGF23-Klotho system leads to the development of hyperphosphatemia. This article will briefly summarize how delicate interactions of the FGF23-klotho system can regulate systemic phosphate homeostasis.

Abstract
Oncogenic osteomalacia (OO) is a rare paraneoplastic condition in which a bone or soft tissue tumor induces biochemical and clinical signs and symptoms of osteomalacia (or rickets) most often by the production of the phosphaturic protein, fibroblast growth factor-23. Phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor, mixed connective tissue type (PMTMCT) is a rare, histologically distinct tumor that represents the most common cause of OO. As the clinical diagnosis of OO is typically suspected on the basis of clinical and biochemical features and the presence of a bone or soft tissue tumor, cytologic examination might potentially provide the necessary pathologic confirmation of OO. In this case of a 46-year-old female with clinical stigmata of OO and a right distal humeral mass, we report that the fine-needle aspiration findings of short, cytologically bland spindled cells embedded in a fine, fibrillary stromal-rich matrix and the presence of osteoclast-type giant cells associated with the stromal matrix provide strong pathological evidence for PMTMCT and assist in pathologically confirming the clinical impression of OO, thus alleviating the need for a more invasive diagnostic surgical procedure.

Abstract
Inherited diseases of renal phosphate handling lead to urinary phosphate wasting and depletion of total body phosphorus stores. Clinical sequelae of inherited disorders that are associated with increased urinary phosphate excretion are deleterious and can lead to abnormal skeletal growth and deformities. This Review describes hereditary disorders of renal phosphate wasting taking into account developments in our understanding of renal phosphate handling from the last decade. The cloning of genes involved in these disorders and further studies on their pathophysiological mechanisms have given important insights in to how phosphatonins, such as FGF-23, regulate renal phosphate reabsorption in health and disease. X-linked dominant hypophosphatemic rickets results from mutation of a metalloprotease (PHEX) that has an unidentified role in FGF-23 degradation. Mutation of an RXXR proteolytic cleavage site in FGF-23 prevents degradation and increases circulating levels of FGF-23 in autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets. FGF-23 acts to remove sodium phosphate co-transporters from the luminal membrane of proximal tubular cells with resultant renal phosphate wasting. Loss of function mutations in genes encoding the transporters NaPi-IIc and NaPi-IIa also result in renal phosphate wasting and rickets.

Abstract
Secreted frizzled-related protein-4 (sFRP4) is a member of secreted modulators of Wnt signaling pathways and has been recognized to play important role in the pathogenesis of oncogenic osteomalacia as a potential phosphatonin. To investigate the role of sFRP4 in bone biology and phosphorus homeostasis in postnatal life, we generated transgenic mice that overexpress sFRP4 under the control of the serum amyloid P promoter (SAP-sFRP4), which drives transgene expression postnatally. Serum phosphorus level and urinary phosphorus excretion were slightly lower and higher, respectively, in SAP-sFRP4 compared to wild-type (WT) littermate, but the difference did not reach statistical significance. However, renal Na(+/-)/Pi co-transporter (Npt) 2a and 1alpha-hydroxylase gene expression were up-regulated in SAP-sFRP4 mice. In addition, the level of serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) was higher in SAP-sFRP4 mice. At 5 weeks of age, bone mineral density (BMD) in SAP-sFRP4 was similar to that in WT. However, with advancing age, SAP-sFRP4 mice gained less BMD so that areal BMD of SAP-sFRP4 mice was significantly lower compared to WT at 15 weeks of age. Histomorphometric analysis of proximal tibia showed that trabecular bone volume (BV/TV) and thickness (Tb.Th) were significantly lower in SAP-sFRP4 mice. There was no evidence of osteomalacia in histological analysis. Our data do not support the role of sFRP4 per se as a phosphatonin but suggest that sFRP4 negatively regulates bone formation without disrupting phosphorus homeostasis.

Abstract
There are a number of hypophosphatemic disorders due to renal phosphate wasting that cannot be explained by elevated levels of parathyroid hormone. The circulating factors responsible for the phosphaturia have been designated as phosphatonins. Studies of patients with tumor-induced osteomalacia and other genetic diseases of phosphate metabolism have resulted in the identification of a number of hormones that regulate phosphate homeostasis, including matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein (MEPE), secreted frizzled-related protein 4 (sFRP-4), dentin matrix protein 1 (DMP1), fibroblast growth factor 7 (FGF7), fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), and Klotho. Our understanding of the actions of these hypophosphatemic peptides has been enhanced by studies in mice either overexpressing or not expressing these hormones. This review focuses on FGF23 since its regulation is disordered in diseases that affect children, such as X-linked hypophosphatemia, autosomal dominant and recessive hypophosphatemic rickets as well as chronic kidney disease. Recent studies have shown that FGF23 is unique among the FGFs in its requirement for Klotho for receptor activation. Here, we also discuss new potentially clinically important data pointing to the receptor(s) that mediate the binding and action of FGF23 and Klotho.

Abstract
Acute renal failure (ARF) occurs in septic patients and is histologically characterized by tubular apical damages, including brush border breakdown. Nevertheless, little information is available to identify the apical injury at a molecular level. Type 2a Na-phosphate (Pi) co-transporter (NaPiT2a) is constitutively expressed by brush borders of proximal tubules under a healthy condition. Therefore, we investigated if NaPiT2a could be used as a negative marker to predict the renal dysfunction, using an animal model of septic ARF. After the treatment of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), mice manifested the tubular apical injury and renal dysfunction, as evidenced by the increase in blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels. Immunohistochemical examination revealed that the expression of NaPiT2a by renal proximal tubules became faint, being reciprocal to the development of tubular hypoxia during sepsis. Inversely, the loss in apical NaPiT2a was restored in a regenerating stage, associated with the recovery from renal hypoxia. Overall, there was a negative correlation between the NaPiT2a expression and BUN levels or tubular injury scores in septic mice. Our data indicate that the loss of NaPiT2a is a reliable marker for predicting the progression of septic ARF, while local hypoxia might be involved in the decrease of NaPiT2a expression.

Abstract
The human fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family contains 22 proteins that regulate a plethora of physiological processes in both developing and adult organism. The mutations in the FGF genes were not known to play role in human disease until the year 2000, when mutations in FGF23 were found to cause hypophosphatemic rickets. Nine years later, seven FGFs have been associated with human disorders. These include FGF3 in Michel aplasia; FGF8 in cleft lip/palate and in hypogonadotropic hypogonadism; FGF9 in carcinoma; FGF10 in the lacrimal/salivary glands aplasia, and lacrimo-auriculo-dento-digital syndrome; FGF14 in spinocerebellar ataxia; FGF20 in Parkinson disease; and FGF23 in tumoral calcinosis and hypophosphatemic rickets. The heterogeneity in the functional consequences of FGF mutations, the modes of inheritance, pattern of involved tissues/organs, and effects in different developmental stages provide fascinating insights into the physiology of the FGF signaling system. We review the current knowledge about the molecular pathology of the FGF family.
