Abstract
Phosphate is essential for numerous biological processes, and serum levels are tightly regulated to accomplish these functions. The regulation of serum phosphate in a narrow physiological range is a well-orchestrated process and involves the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, bone, kidneys, and several hormones, namely, parathyroid hormone, fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25 Vitamin D). Although primarily synthesized in the bone, FGF23, an endocrine FGF, acts on the kidney to regulate phosphate and Vitamin D homeostasis by causing phosphaturia and reduced levels of 1,25 Vitamin D. Recent studies have highlighted the complex regulation of FGF23 including transcriptional and post-translational modification and kidney-bone cross talk. Understanding FGF23 biology has led to the identification of novel therapeutic agents to treat diseases that disrupt phosphate metabolism secondary to FGF23. The focus of this review is to provide an overview of phosphate homeostasis, FGF23 biology, and the role of FGF23 in phosphate balance.

The Ip6k1 and Ip6k2 Kinases Are Critical for Normal Renal Tubular Function. J Am Soc Nephrol 2024; 35:441-455. [PMID: 38317282 PMCID: PMC11000740 DOI: 10.1681/asn.0000000000000303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2023] [Accepted: 12/24/2023] [Indexed: 02/07/2024] Open
Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Kidneys are gatekeepers of systemic inorganic phosphate balance because they control urinary phosphate excretion. In yeast and plants, inositol hexakisphosphate kinases (IP6Ks) are central to regulate phosphate metabolism, whereas their role in mammalian phosphate homeostasis is mostly unknown. We demonstrate in a renal cell line and in mice that Ip6k1 and Ip6k2 are critical for normal expression and function of the major renal Na + /Pi transporters NaPi-IIa and NaPi-IIc. Moreover, Ip6k1/2-/- mice also show symptoms of more generalized kidney dysfunction. Thus, our results suggest that IP6Ks are essential for phosphate metabolism and proper kidney function in mammals. BACKGROUND Inorganic phosphate is an essential mineral, and its plasma levels are tightly regulated. In mammals, kidneys are critical for maintaining phosphate homeostasis through mechanisms that ultimately regulate the expression of the Na + /Pi cotransporters NaPi-IIa and NaPi-IIc in proximal tubules. Inositol pyrophosphate 5-IP 7 , generated by IP6Ks, is a main regulator of phosphate metabolism in yeast and plants. IP6Ks are conserved in mammals, but their role in phosphate metabolism in vivo remains unexplored. METHODS We used in vitro (opossum kidney cells) and in vivo (renal tubular-specific Ip6k1/2-/- mice) models to analyze the role of IP6K1/2 in phosphate homeostasis in mammals. RESULTS In both systems, Ip6k1 and Ip6k2 are responsible for synthesis of 5-IP 7 . Depletion of Ip6k1/2 in vitro reduced phosphate transport and mRNA expression of Na + /Pi cotransporters, and it blunts phosphate transport adaptation to changes in ambient phosphate. Renal ablation of both kinases in mice also downregulates the expression of NaPi-IIa and NaPi-IIc and lowered the uptake of phosphate into proximal renal brush border membranes. In addition, the absence of Ip6k1 and Ip6k2 reduced the plasma concentration of fibroblast growth factor 23 and increased bone resorption, despite of which homozygous males develop hypophosphatemia. Ip6k1/2-/- mice also show increased diuresis, albuminuria, and hypercalciuria, although the morphology of glomeruli and proximal brush border membrane seemed unaffected. CONCLUSIONS Depletion of renal Ip6k1/2 in mice not only altered phosphate homeostasis but also dysregulated other kidney functions.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is rare paraneoplastic syndrome of hypophosphatemic osteomalacia, caused by phosphaturic factors secreted by small mesenchymal origin tumors with distinct pathological features, called 'phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors'. FGF23 is the most well-characterized of the phosphaturic factors. Tumors are often small and located anywhere in the body from head to toe, which makes the localisation challenging. Functional imaging by somatostatin receptor-based PET imaging is the first line investigation, which should be followed with CT or MRI based anatomical imaging. Once localised, complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice, which brings dramatic resolution of symptoms. Medical management in the form of phosphate and active vitamin D supplements is given as a bridge to surgical management or in inoperable/non-localised patients. This review provides an overview of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, pathology, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of TIO, including the recent advances and directions for future research in this field.

Abstract
CASE HISTORY Necropsies on Toggenburg goats culled from a small farm in the Manawatū district of New Zealand, performed at Massey University (Palmerston North, NZ) over a period of 29 years (1991-2019), revealed soft tissue mineralisation, particularly of cardiovascular tissues. The farm spans 10 acres and runs between 15 and 30 Toggenburg goats. The goats are predominantly on pasture comprising a variety of types. PATHOLOGICAL FINDINGS Necropsies were performed on all adult goats (n = 45) that died or were euthanised. Histopathology was performed on 42 goats (93%), of which 33 (73%) included sufficient tissues diagnostically relevant to soft tissue mineralisation. The most significant gross findings were in various arteries, with the aorta most commonly affected, followed by the heart and lungs. The aortic intima showed prominent, multifocal to coalescing, raised, wrinkled, white plaques. Microscopically there were multiphasic lesions of mineralisation, chondroid, and osseous metaplasia in the elastic arteries, aorta, heart and lungs. A lumbar vertebra from one goat had prominent, basophilic, fibrillar, tangled matrix lining Haversian canals and lamellae. LABORATORY FINDINGS Blood samples were collected from 15 adult goats in the affected herd and from 10 adult Toggenburg goats from an unaffected herd. Samples were collected by jugular venipuncture at 2-month intervals for 12 months (April 2018-March 2019). Concentrations of calcium, phosphorus, 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 and D3 (25OHD2, 25OHD3) in serum were analysed. The concentration of total 25OHD in serum was 34.2 (95% CI = 18.9-49.4) nmol/L (p < 0.001) higher in goats from the affected herd than in goats from the unaffected herd. Serum 25OHD2 concentration was 46.2 (95% CI = 39.2-53.2) nmol/L higher (p < 0.001) in goats from the affected herd compared to the unaffected herd. Serum Ca concentrations in affected goats were 0.101 (95% CI = 0.005-0.196) mmol/L higher (p = 0.039) than unaffected goats, but remained within the reference range. There was no evidence of a difference in serum 25OHD3 and P concentration between the herds. VEGETATION SURVEY All paddocks on the property were surveyed every 2 months along evenly spaced line transects, and then further traversed perpendicularly to form a grid. No known calcinogenic species were identified. Known plant sources of vitamin D identified on the farm included mushrooms (species not defined), Dactylis glomerata, lichen, pine pollen, and algae. DIAGNOSIS Soft tissue mineralisation and enzootic calcinosis. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Veterinarians are alerted to the possibility of either enzootic calcinosis in goats and the potential occurrence of calcinogenic plants in New Zealand; or chronic vitamin D toxicosis of non-plant origin.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). As CKD progresses, CKD-specific risk factors, such as disordered mineral homeostasis, amplify traditional cardiovascular risk factors. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) regulates mineral homeostasis by activating complexes of FGF receptors and transmembrane klotho co-receptors. A soluble form of klotho also acts as a 'portable' FGF23 co-receptor in tissues that do not express klotho. In progressive CKD, rising circulating FGF23 levels in combination with decreasing kidney expression of klotho results in klotho-independent effects of FGF23 on the heart that promote left ventricular hypertrophy, heart failure, atrial fibrillation and death. Emerging data suggest that soluble klotho might mitigate some of these effects via several candidate mechanisms. More research is needed to investigate FGF23 excess and klotho deficiency in specific cardiovascular complications of CKD, but the pathophysiological primacy of FGF23 excess versus klotho deficiency might never be precisely resolved, given the entangled feedback loops that they share. Therefore, randomized trials should prioritize clinical practicality over scientific certainty by targeting disordered mineral homeostasis holistically in an effort to improve cardiovascular outcomes in patients with CKD.

Abstract
Background/Objective Tumoral calcinosis (TC) is a rare, arcane, and debilitating disorder of phosphate metabolism manifesting as hard masses in soft tissues. Primary hyperphosphatemic TC has been shown to be caused by pathogenic variants in the genes encoding FGF23, GALNT3, and KLOTHO. We report a case of massive TC mechanistically associated with phosphatonin resistance associated with heterozygous alterations in the sterile alfa motif domain-containing protein-9 gene (SAMD9), alfa 2-Heremans-Schmid glycoprotein gene (AHSG), FSHD region gene 2-family member-C gene (FRG2C), and fibroblast growth factor receptor-4 gene (FGFR4). Case Report A middle-aged Malay woman with systemic sclerosis presented with painful hard lumps of her axillae, lower limbs, and external genitalia. She was eucalcemic with mild hyperphosphatemia associated with reduced urinary phosphate excretion. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed calcified soft tissue masses. Paradoxically, the serum intact FGF23 level increased to 89.6 pg/mL, corroborated by Western blots, which also showed overexpression of sFRP4 and MEPE, consistent with phosphatonin resistance. Discussion Whole genome sequencing identified 2 heterozygous alterations (p.A454T and p.T479M) in SAMD9, 2 heterozygous alterations (p.M248T and p.S256T) in AHSG, a frameshift alteration (p.Arg156fs) in FRG2C, and a heterozygous alteration (p.G388R) in FGFR4, all of which are associated with calcinosis. Nonsynonymous alterations of FRP4 and MEPE were also detected. Conclusion This highlights that the simultaneous occurrence of alterations in several genes critical in phosphate homeostasis may trigger massive TC despite their heterozygosity. These findings should prompt functional studies in cell and animal models to reveal mechanistic insights in the pathogenesis of such crippling mineralization disorders.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) belongs structurally to the endocrine FGF protein family, which also includes FGF19 and FGF21. In the past decade, FGF23 has emerged as a possible diagnostic, prognostic biomarker, and therapeutic target in several conditions. Data about COVID-19 and FGF23 is still limited, yet they suggest interesting interactions. OBJECTIVE In the present study, the levels of FGF23 were investigated in COVID-19 patients. These levels were also correlated with other inflammatory markers. MATERIALS AND METHODS In our prospective observational study, blood samples were collected from 81 patients admitted with COVID-19 (31 males and 50 females). We analyzed the relation of serum FGF23 levels with biochemistry, total blood count, coagulation parameters, and demographic data. RESULTS The distribution of FGF23 serum levels according to sex and age (n28-40=8, n41-60=28, n65-75= 25, n75+=20) was similar. No significant correlation between FGF23 and any other biochemistry, total blood count, and coagulation parameter was revealed in the whole sample. Nevertheless, there was a variation in the results among different age groups. CONCLUSION FGF23 levels seem to vary in symptomatic COVID-19 infection, but well-organized studies with larger numbers of patients in each group are needed to determine any reliable correlation between FGF23 and other laboratory parameters.

High Plasma Levels of Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 Are Associated with Increased Risk of COVID-19 in End-Stage Renal Disease Patients on Hemodialysis: Results of a Prospective Cohort. Toxins (Basel) 2023; 15:toxins15020097. [PMID: 36828412 PMCID: PMC9963549 DOI: 10.3390/toxins15020097] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2022] [Revised: 12/20/2022] [Accepted: 01/06/2023] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients are a population with high rates of COVID-19 and mortality. These patients present a low response to anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunization, which is associated with immune dysfunction. ESRD patients also present high plasma titers of Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23), a protein hormone that reduces immune response in vivo and in vitro. Increased FGF23 levels associate with higher infection-related hospitalizations and adverse infectious outcomes. Thus, we evaluated whether ESRD patients with high FGF23 titers have an increased rate of SARS-CoV-2 infection. METHODS We performed a prospective cohort of ESRD patients in hemodialysis who had measurements of plasma intact FGF23 in 2019. We determined COVID-19 infections, hospitalizations, and mortality between January 2020 and December 2021. RESULTS We evaluated 243 patients. Age: 60.4 ± 10.8 years. Female: 120 (49.3%), diabetes: 110 (45.2%). During follow-up, 45 patients developed COVID-19 (18.5%), 35 patients were hospitalized, and 12 patients died (mortality rate: 26.6%). We found that patients with higher FGF23 levels (defined as equal or above median) had a higher rate of SARS-CoV-2 infection versus those with lower levels (18.8% versus 9.9%; Hazard ratio: 1.92 [1.03-3.56], p = 0.039). Multivariate analysis showed that increased plasma FGF23 was independently associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe COVID-19. DISCUSSION Our results suggest that high plasma FGF23 levels are a risk factor for developing COVID-19 in ESRD patients. These data support the potential immunosuppressive effects of high circulating FGF23 as a factor implicated in the association with worse clinical outcomes. Further data are needed to confirm this hypothesis.

Abstract
The present study was carried out to evaluate the effect of dietary supplemental vitamin D3 on fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) signals as well as phosphorus homeostasis and metabolism in laying hens. Fourteen 40-week-old Hy-Line Brown layers were randomly assigned into 2 treatments: 1) vitamin D3 restriction group (n = 7) fed 0 IU/kg vitamin D3 diet, and 2) regular vitamin D3 group (n = 7) fed 1,600 IU/kg vitamin D3 diet. The study lasted for 21 d. Serum parameters, phosphorus and calcium excretion status, and tissue expressions of type II sodium-phosphate co-transporters (NPt2), FGF23 signals and vitamin D3 metabolic regulators were determined. Hens fed the vitamin D3 restricted diet had decreased serum phosphorus levels (by 31.3%, P = 0.028) when compared to those fed regular vitamin D3 diet. In response to the decreased serum phosphorus, the vitamin D3 restricted laying hens exhibited: 1) suppressed kidney expressions of 25-hydroxyvitamin D 1-α-hydroxylase (CYP27B1, by 52.8%, P = 0.036) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D 24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1, by 99.4%, P = 0.032); 2) suppressed serum levels of FGF23 (by 14.6%, P = 0.048) and increased serum alkaline phosphatase level (by 414.1%, P = 0.012); 3) decreased calvaria mRNA expressions of fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR1, by 85.2%, P = 0.003, FGFR2, by 89.4%, P = 0.014, FGFR3, by 88.8%, P = 0.017, FGFR4, by 89.6%, P = 0.030); 4) decreased kidney mRNA expressions of FGFR1 (by 65.5%, P = 0.021), FGFR4 (by 66.0%, P = 0.050) and KLOTHO (by 68.8%, P = 0.038); 5) decreased kidney protein expression of type 2a sodium-phosphorus co-transporters (by 54.3%, P = 0.039); and 6) increased percent excreta calcium (by 26.9%, P = 0.002). In conclusion, the deprivation of dietary vitamin D3 decreased FGF23 signals in laying hens by reducing serum FGF23 level and suppressing calvaria and kidney mRNA expressions of FGF23 receptors.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a bone marrow cell produced hormone that functions in the intestine and kidney to regulate phosphate homeostasis. Increased serum FGF23 is a well-established predictor of mortality in renal disease, but recent findings linking increased levels to hepatic and cardiac diseases have suggested that other organs are sources of FGF23 or targets of its effects. The potential ability of the liver to produce FGF23 in response to hepatocellular injury was therefore examined. Very low levels of Fgf23 mRNA and FGF23 protein were detected in normal mouse liver, but the amounts increased markedly during acute liver injury from the hepatotoxin carbon tetrachloride. Serum levels of intact FGF23 were elevated during liver injury from carbon tetrachloride. Chronic liver injury induced by a high fat diet or elevated bile acids also increased hepatic FGF23 levels. Stimulation of toll-like receptor (TLR) 4-driven inflammation by gut-derived lipopolysaccharide (LPS) underlies many forms of liver injury, and LPS induced Fgf23 in the liver as well as in other organs. The LPS-inducible cytokines IL-1β and TNF increased hepatic Fgf23 expression as did a TLR2 agonist Pam2CSK3. Analysis of Fgf23 expression and FGF23 secretion in different hepatic cell types involved in liver injury identified the resident liver macrophage or Kupffer cell as a source of hepatic FGF23. LPS and cytokines selectively induced the hormone in these cells but not in hepatocytes or hepatic stellate cells. FGF23 failed to exert any autocrine effect on the inflammatory state of Kupffer cells but did trigger proinflammatory activation of hepatocytes. During liver injury inflammatory factors induce Kupffer cell production of FGF23 that may have a paracrine proinflammatory effect on hepatocytes. Liver-produced FGF23 may have systemic hormonal effects as well that influence diseases in in other organs.

Abstract
In recent years, much progress has been made in understanding the mechanisms of bone growth and development over a lifespan, including the crosstalk between muscle and bone, to achieve optimal structure and function. While there have been significant advances in understanding how to help improve and maintain bone health in normal individuals, there is limited knowledge on whether these mechanisms apply or are compromised in pathological states. X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) (ORPHA:89936) is a rare, heritable, renal phosphate-wasting disorder. The resultant chronic hypophosphatemia leads to progressive deterioration in musculoskeletal function, including impaired growth, rickets, and limb deformities in children, as well as lifelong osteomalacia with reduced bone quality and impaired muscle structure and function. The clinical manifestations of the disease vary both in presentation and severity in affected individuals, and many of the consequences of childhood defects persist into adulthood, causing significant morbidity that impacts physical function and quality of life. Intervention to restore phosphate levels early in life during the critical stages of skeletal development in children with XLH could optimize growth and may prevent or reduce bone deformities in childhood. A healthier bone structure, together with improved muscle function, can lead to physical activity enhancing musculoskeletal health throughout life. In adults, continued management may help to maintain the positive effects acquired from childhood treatment, thereby slowing or halting disease progression. In this review, we summarize the opinions from members of a working group with expertise in pediatrics, epidemiology, and bone, joint and muscle biology, on potential outcomes for people with XLH, who have been optimally treated from an early age and continue treatment throughout life.

Fibroblast growth factor 23 leads to endolysosomal routing of the renal phosphate cotransporters NaPi-IIa and NaPi-IIc in vivo. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 2021; 321:F785-F798.

Abstract
Na+-dependent phosphate cotransporters NaPi-IIa and NaPi-IIc, located at the brush-border membrane of renal proximal tubules, are regulated by numerous factors, including fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). FGF23 downregulates NaPi-IIa and NaPi-IIc abundance after activating a signaling pathway involving phosphorylation of ERK1/2 (phospho-ERK1/2). FGF23 also downregulates expression of renal 1-α-hydroxylase (Cyp27b1) and upregulates 24-hydroxylase (Cyp24a1), thus reducing plasma calcitriol levels. Here, we examined the time course of FGF23-induced internalization of NaPi-IIa and NaPi-IIc and their intracellular pathway toward degradation in vivo. Mice were injected intraperitoneally with recombinant human (rh)FGF23 in the absence (biochemical analysis) or presence (immunohistochemistry) of leupeptin, an inhibitor of lysosomal proteases. Phosphorylation of ERK1/2 was enhanced 60 min after rhFGF23 administration, and increased phosphorylation was still detected 480 min after injection. Colocalization of phospho-ERK1/2 with NaPi-IIa was seen at 60 and 120 min and partly at 480 min. The abundance of both cotransporters was reduced 240 min after rhFGF23 administration, with a further reduction at 480 min. NaPi-IIa and NaPi-IIc were found to colocalize with clathrin and early endosomal antigen 1 as early as 120 min after rhFGF23 injection. Both cotransporters partially colocalized with cathepsin B and lysosomal-associated membrane protein-1, markers of lysosomes, 120 min after rhFGF23 injection. Thus, NaPi-IIa and NaPi-IIc are internalized within 2 h upon rhFGF23 injection. Both cotransporters share the pathway of clathrin-mediated endocytosis that leads first to early endosomes, finally resulting in trafficking toward the lysosome as early as 120 min after rhFGF23 administration.NEW & NOTEWORTHY The hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) controls phosphate homeostasis by regulating renal phosphate excretion. FGF23 acts on several phosphate transporters in the kidney. Here, we define the time course of this action and demonstrate how phosphate transporters NaPi-IIa and NaPi-IIc are internalized.

Abstract
The histopathology slide seminar "Classic Examples in Toxicologic Pathology XXVII" was held on February 21 and 22, 2020, at the Department of Pathology at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Hannover, Germany, with joint organization by the European Society of Toxicologic Pathology. The goal of this annual seminar is to present and discuss classical and actual cases of toxicologic pathology. This article summarizes the presentations given during the seminar, including images of representative lesions. Ten actual and classical cases of toxicologic pathology, mostly induced by a test article, were presented. These included small intestine pathology and transcriptomics induced by a γ-secretase modulator, liver findings in nonhuman primates induced by gene therapy, drug-induced neutropenia in dogs, device-induced growth plate lesions, polycystic lesions in CAR/PXR double knockout mice, inner ear lesions in transgenic mice, findings in Beagle dogs induced by an inhibitor of the myeloid leukemia cell differentiation protein MCL1, findings induced by a monovalent fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 antagonist, kidney lesions induced by a mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor in combination therapy, and findings in mutation-specific drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High fibroblast growth factor-23 levels increase cardiovascular disease risk in chronic kidney disease subjects. The effects of dietary phosphate levels on fibroblast growth factor-23 in chronic kidney disease subjects have conflicting results. This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate this relationship. METHODS A systematic-literature search up to July 2020 was performed and 7 studies were detected with 548 chronic kidney disease subjects at the baseline of the studies; a total of 170 of them were with lower dietary phosphate levels and 175 were higher dietary phosphate levels. They reported relationships between dietary phosphate levels and fibroblast growth factor-23 level in chronic kidney disease subjects. Mean differences (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated comparing the lower versus higher phosphate levels effect on urinary phosphate levels and fibroblast growth factor-23 level in chronic kidney disease subjects using the contentious methods with a random or fixed-effect model. RESULTS Lower dietary phosphate levels had significantly lower 24-hour urinary phosphate excretion (MD, -41.23; 95% CI, -59.95 to 22.52, P < .001), and lower intact fibroblast growth factor-23 level (MD, -25.68; 95% CI, -39.85 to -11.51, P < .001) compared with higher dietary phosphate levels in chronic kidney disease subjects. However, no significant difference was found between low and high dietary phosphate levels in C-terminal fibroblast growth factor-23 level in chronic kidney disease subjects (MD, -7.10; 95% CI, -14.29 to 0.10, P = .05). CONCLUSIONS Lower dietary phosphate levels had significantly lower 24-hour urinary phosphate excretion, intact fibroblast growth factor-23 level compared with higher dietary phosphate levels in chronic kidney disease subjects. This relationship forces us to recommend low dietary phosphate levels in chronic kidney disease subjects to decrease fibroblast growth factor-23 level to avoid any possible cardiovascular disease risk in such a subject.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23), a bone-produced hormone, plays a critical role in mineral homeostasis. Human diseases associated with excessive intact circulating FGF23 (iFGF23) result in hypophosphatemia and low vitamin D hormone in patients with normal kidney function. In addition, there is accumulating evidence linking FGF23 with inflammation. Based on these studies and the frequent observation of hypophosphatemia among septic patients, we sought to elucidate further the relationship between FGF23 and mineral homeostasis in a clinically relevant murine polymicrobial sepsis model. Medium-severity sepsis was induced by cecum ligation puncture (CLP) in adult CD-1 mice of both sexes. Healthy CD-1 mice (without CLP) were used as controls. Forty-eight hours post-CLP, spontaneous urine was collected, and serum, organs and bones were sampled at necropsy. Serum iFGF23 increased ~20-fold in CLP compared to control mice. FGF23 protein concentration was increased in the bones, but not in spleen or liver of CLP mice. Despite the ~20-fold iFGF23 increase, we did not observe any significant changes in mineral homeostasis or parathyroid hormone levels in the blood of CLP animals. Urinary excretion of phosphate, calcium, and sodium remained unchanged in male CLP mice, whereas female CLP mice exhibited lower urinary calcium excretion, relative to healthy controls. In line with renal FGF23 resistance, expression of phosphate-, calcium- and sodium-transporting proteins did not show consistent changes in the kidneys of male and female CLP mice. Renal expression of the co-receptor αKlotho was downregulated in female, but not in male CLP mice. In conclusion, our data demonstrate that the dramatic, sex-independent rise in serum iFGF23 post-CLP was mainly caused by an upregulation of FGF23 secretion in the bone. Surprisingly, the upsurge in circulating iFGF23 did not alter humoral mineral homeostasis in the acutely septic mice. Hence, the biological function of elevated FGF23 in sepsis remains unclear and warrants further studies.

Abstract
This is a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the effects of oral vitamin D supplementation on serum fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) concentrations in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Manuscripts were extracted from PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, and ISI Web of Science through February 2020. Subgroup analyses, sensitivity analysis, and meta-regression assessments were performed. A total of eight clinical trials with nine treatment arms were included in the final analysis. The pooled results showed no significant changes in circulating FGF23 following vitamin D supplementation compared to the control group (Standardized mean difference (SMD): 0.24; 95% confidence intervals (CIs): -0.03 to 0.50, p > 0.05). Subgroup analyses found that studies which had participants with a body mass index (BMI) higher than 25 kg/m2 , with an intervention duration shorter than 15 weeks, using phosphate binder medications, and trials that were on both patients with CKD undergoing hemodialysis and patients without hemodialysis treatment produced significant increases in FGF23 when concentration compared with the control group. This meta-analysis provides evidence that vitamin D supplementation does not have a significant effect on plasma FGF23 levels. However, further high-quality trials are required to identify the influence of oral vitamin D supplementation on FGF23 levels in patients with CKD.

Abstract
Together with fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) 19 and 21, FGF23 is an endocrine member of the family of FGFs. Mainly secreted by bone cells, FGF23 acts as a hormone on the kidney, stimulating phosphate excretion and suppressing formation of 1,25(OH)2D3, active vitamin D. These effects are dependent on transmembrane protein αKlotho, which enhances the binding affinity of FGF23 for FGF receptors (FGFR). Locally produced FGF23 in other tissues including liver or heart exerts further paracrine effects without involvement of αKlotho. Soluble Klotho (sKL) is an endocrine factor that is cleaved off of transmembrane Klotho or generated by alternative splicing and regulates membrane channels, transporters, and intracellular signaling including insulin growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and Wnt pathways, signaling cascades highly relevant for tumor progression. In mice, lack of FGF23 or αKlotho results in derangement of phosphate metabolism and a syndrome of rapid aging with abnormalities affecting most organs and a very short life span. Conversely, overexpression of anti-aging factor αKlotho results in a profound elongation of life span. Accumulating evidence suggests a major role of αKlotho as a tumor suppressor, at least in part by inhibiting IGF-1 and Wnt/β-catenin signaling. Hence, in many malignancies, higher αKlotho expression or activity is associated with a more favorable outcome. Moreover, also FGF23 and phosphate have been revealed to be factors relevant in cancer. FGF23 is particularly significant for those forms of cancer primarily affecting bone (e.g., multiple myeloma) or characterized by bone metastasis. This review summarizes the current knowledge of the significance of FGF23 and αKlotho for tumor cell signaling, biology, and clinically relevant parameters in different forms of cancer.

Abstract
FGF23 is a phosphotropic hormone produced by the bone. FGF23 works by binding to the FGF receptor-Klotho complex. Klotho is expressed in several limited tissues including the kidney and parathyroid glands. This tissue-restricted expression of Klotho is believed to determine the target organs of FGF23. FGF23 reduces serum phosphate by suppressing the expression of type 2a and 2c sodium-phosphate cotransporters in renal proximal tubules. FGF23 also decreases 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D levels by regulating the expression of vitamin D-metabolizing enzymes, which results in reduced intestinal phosphate absorption. Excessive actions of FGF23 cause several types of hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia characterized by impaired mineralization of bone matrix. In contrast, deficient actions of FGF23 result in hyperphosphatemic tumoral calcinosis with high 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D levels. These results indicate that FGF23 is a physiological regulator of phosphate and vitamin D metabolism and indispensable for the maintenance of serum phosphate levels.

Abstract
Osteocytes, which represent up to 95% of adult skeletal cells, are deeply embedded in bone. These cells exhibit important interactive abilities with other bone cells such as osteoblasts and osteoclasts to control skeletal formation and resorption. Beyond this local role, osteocytes can also influence the function of distant organs due to the presence of their sophisticated lacunocanalicular system, which connects osteocyte dendrites directly to the vasculature. Through these networks, osteocytes sense changes in circulating metabolites and respond by producing endocrine factors to control homeostasis. One critical function of osteocytes is to respond to increased blood phosphate and 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D (1,25D) by producing fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23). FGF23 acts on the kidneys through partner fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) and the co-receptor Klotho to promote phosphaturia via a downregulation of phosphate transporters, as well as the control of vitamin D metabolizing enzymes to reduce blood 1,25D. In the first part of this review, we will explore the signals involved in the positive and negative regulation of FGF23 in osteocytes. In the second portion, we will bridge bone responses with the review of current knowledge on FGF23 endocrine functions in the kidneys.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a major determinant of mineral metabolism derangements and emerges as a possible risk factor underlying the negative cardiovascular outcome in CKD patients. However, its contribution in non-CKD individuals is less clear. This cross-sectional study investigated the associations between FGF23 and mineral metabolism parameters and with carotid atherosclerosis in a population at high cardiovascular risk with preserved renal function. METHODS We employed 939 subjects with coronary heart disease enrolled in the CORDIOPREV study (mean eGFR=93.0 ± 0.7 ml/min/1.73 m2 and median FGF23=44.9 (IQR=13.1) pg/ml), in which intima-media thickness of both common carotid arteries (IMT-CC) was measured. RESULTS Adjusted for anthropometric factors, FGF23 associated positively with creatinine, phosphate, calcium and 25(OH)-vitaminD and negatively with eGFR and calcitriol. In multivariable-adjusted models all of them were independent contributors to FGF23 levels. FGF23 showed a positive relationship with IMT-CC; both the higher third and fourth quartiles associated significantly with IMT-CC (Beta= 0.135 and 0.187, respectively) and after additional adjustment for established cardiovascular risk factors and morbidities FGF23 remained as a significant contributor to IMT-CC. Logistic regression analysis confirmed its predictive ability to differentiate patients at higher atherosclerotic risk defined by an IMT-CC≥0.7 mm (OR for FGF23 quartiles 3 and 4 vs. 1: 1.860; 95%CI 1.209-2.862 and 2.114; 95%CI 1.339-3.337, respectively). CONCLUSION Even in the setting of a normally functioning phosphate-FGF23-calcitriol system, FGF23 independently associated with IMT-CC, a surrogate of atherosclerotic vascular dysfunction. This supports the notion of FGF23 as a predictor of cardiovascular risk independent of renal failure.

Abstract
FGF23 is a protein secreted in the plasma by bone cells. In the kidney, FGF23 can activate an FGF receptor in the presence of its co-receptor αKlotho. FGF23 controls the renal phosphate reabsorption and calcitriol metabolism. When renal function declines, plasma FGF23 concentration raises and FGF23 can stimulate FGFRs in the absence of αKlotho. This induces cardiac hypertrophy, modifies cardiomyocyte contractility and increases the risk of arrhythmic events in cardiac cells. There is still no evidence that decreasing FGF23 concentration in patients on dialysis could improve their survival. In different cardiac disorders cardiomyocyte can produce FGF23, which can reveal a way of adaptation to the stress.

Abstract
X‑linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH, OMIM #307800) is a rare genetic metabolic disorder caused by dysregulation of fibroblast-like growth factor 23 (FGF23) leading to profound reduction in renal phosphate reabsorption. Impaired growth, severe rickets and complex skeletal deformities are direct consequences of hypophosphatemia representing major symptoms of XLH during childhood. In adults, secondary complications including early development of osteoarthritis substantially impair quality of life and cause significant clinical burden. With the global approval of the monoclonal FGF23 antibody burosumab, a targeted treatment with promising results in phase III studies is available for children with XLH. Nevertheless, complete phenotypic rescue is rarely achieved and remaining multisystemic symptoms demand multidisciplinary specialist care. Coordination of patient management within the major medical disciplines is a mainstay to optimize treatment and reduce disease burden. This review aims to depict different perspectives in XLH patient care in the setting of a multidisciplinary centre of expertise for rare bone diseases.

Abstract
Abnormal phosphate levels result in several pathological conditions such as rickets/osteomalacia and ectopic calcification indicating that there must be a system that regulates phosphate level within a narrow range. FGF23 has been shown to be an essential hormone regulating serum phosphate level. FGF23 binds to Klotho-FGF receptor complex to reduce serum phosphate level. Several reports suggested that FGF receptor is involved in the regulation of FGF23 production. It has been also shown that high extracellular phosphate can activate several intracellular signaling pathways. However, it has been unclear whether and how phosphate regulates FGF23 production in vivo. Our recent results indicate that high extracellular phosphate directly activates FGF receptor 1 and the downstream intracellular signaling enhances FGF23 production. Thus, there is a negative feedback system for the regulation of serum phosphate level involving FGF receptor and FGF23. We propose that FGF receptor works at least as one of phosphate sensors in the maintenance of serum phosphate level.

Abstract
Background Elevated fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) levels increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We aimed to compare the effects of different dietary interventions, lower versus higher phosphate levels, on FGF23 in patients with CKD. Methods We conducted electronic literature searches of Medline, PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Library for publications up to 29 October 2016 for randomized clinical trials that compared lower versus higher phosphate dietary interventions in adults with CKD. The primary outcome was the difference in change-from-baseline FGF23 levels between intervention groups. Considering the difference in measurement units between intact FGF23 and C-terminal FGF23 assays, the treatment effect was analysed as the standardized mean difference (SMD) with the 95% confidence interval (CI). Results We identified five trials enrolling a total of 94 normophosphataemic patients with Stage 3B CKD. The study duration ranged from 1 to 12 weeks. Compared with higher phosphate diets, lower phosphate diets tended to reduce FGF23 levels (SMD -0.74, 95% CI -1.54 to 0.07, P = 0.07). Subgroup analyses showed a trend (P for interaction = 0.09) towards a better FGF23-lowering effect by lower phosphate diets in studies using the intact FGF23 assay (SMD -1.14, 95% CI -2.24 to -0.04) than those using the C-terminal FGF23 assay (SMD -0.05, 95% CI -0.67 to 0.57). Conclusions Short-term dietary phosphate restriction tends to reduce FGF23 levels in patients with moderately decreased kidney function, and the FGF23-lowering effects tend to be more prominent when measured with the intact FGF23 assay.

Abstract
Alpha-Klotho is a member of the Klotho family consisting of two other single-pass transmembrane proteins: βKlotho and γKlotho; αKlotho has been shown to circulate in the blood. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)23 is a member of the FGF superfamily of 22 genes/proteins. αKlotho serves as a co-receptor with FGF receptors (FGFRs) to provide a receptacle for physiological FGF23 signaling including regulation of phosphate metabolism. The extracellular domain of transmembrane αKlotho is shed by secretases and released into blood circulation (soluble αKlotho). Soluble αKlotho has both FGF23-independent and FGF23-dependent roles in phosphate homeostasis by modulating intestinal phosphate absorption, urinary phosphate excretion, and phosphate distribution into bone in concerted interaction with other calciophosphotropic hormones such as PTH and 1,25-(OH)2D. The direct role of αKlotho and FGF23 in the maintenance of phosphate homeostasis is partly mediated by modulation of type II Na+-dependent phosphate co-transporters in target organs. αKlotho and FGF23 are principal phosphotropic hormones, and the manipulation of the αKlotho-FGF23 axis is a novel therapeutic strategy for genetic and acquired phosphate disorders and for conditions with FGF23 excess and αKlotho deficiency such as chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), the most common form of inheritable rickets, is caused by inactivation of phosphate-regulating gene with homologies to endopeptidases on the X chromosome (PHEX) and leads to fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 23-dependent renal inorganic phosphate (Pi) wasting. In the present study, we investigated whether maintaining Pi homeostasis with a potent vitamin D3 analog, eldecalcitol [1α,25-dihydroxy-2β-(3-hydroxypropyloxy) vitamin D3; ED71], could improve hypophosphatemic rickets in a murine model of XLH, the Hyp mouse. Vehicle, ED71, or 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D was subcutaneously injected five times weekly in wild-type (WT) and Hyp mice for 4 weeks, from 4 to 8 weeks of age. Injection of ED71 into WT mice suppressed the synthesis of renal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D and promoted phosphaturic activity. In contrast, administration of ED71 to Hyp mice completely restored renal Pi transport and NaPi-2a protein levels, although the plasma-intact FGF23 levels were further increased. In addition, ED71 markedly increased the levels of the scaffold proteins, renal sodium-hydrogen exchanger regulatory factor 1, and ezrin in the Hyp mouse kidney. Treatment with ED71 increased the body weight and improved hypophosphatemia, the bone volume/total volume, bone mineral content, and growth plate structure in Hyp mice. Thus, ED71 causes FGF23 resistance for phosphate reabsorption and improves rachitic bone phenotypes in Hyp mice. In conclusion, ED71 has opposite effects on phosphate homeostasis in WT and Hyp mice. Analysis of Hyp mice treated with ED71 could result in an additional model for elucidating PHEX abnormalities.

Abstract
Phosphate plays essential roles in many biological processes, and the serum phosphate level is tightly controlled. Chronic hypophosphatemia causes impaired mineralization of the bone matrix and results in rickets and osteomalacia. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone that regulates phosphate metabolism. FGF23 excess induces hypophosphatemia via impaired phosphate reabsorption in the renal proximal tubules and decreased phosphate absorption in the intestines. There are several types of genetic and acquired FGF23-related hypophosphatemic diseases. Among these diseases, X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), which is caused by inactivating mutations in the phosphate-regulating endopeptidase homolog, X-linked (PHEX) gene, is the most prevalent form of genetic FGF23-related hypophosphatemic rickets. Another clinically relevant form of FGF23-related hypophosphatemic disease is tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), a paraneoplastic syndrome associated with FGF23-producing tumors. A combination of active vitamin D and phosphate salts is the current medical therapy used to treat patients with XLH and inoperative TIO. However, this therapy has certain efficacy- and safety-associated limitations. Several measures to inhibit FGF23 activity have been considered as possible new treatments for FGF23-related hypophosphatemic diseases. In particular, a humanized monoclonal antibody for FGF23 (burosumab) is a promising treatment in patients with XLH and TIO. This review will focus on the phosphate metabolism and the pathogenesis and treatment of FGF23-related hypophosphatemic diseases.

Abstract
Background Parathyroid glands of people with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) fail to respond to low serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) and low serum calcium, which are stimuli for parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion. This led us to hypothesise: that there is suppression of PTH in RRMS due to higher than normal serum concentrations of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). We therefore sought evidence for dysregulation of the PTH-FGF23-vitamin D axis in RRMS. Methods Longitudinal study (winter to summer) with fasting venepunctures. For RRMS subjects who recruited a healthy control (HC) friend, pairs analyses were performed. For each pair, the within-pair difference of the variable of interest was calculated (RRMS minus HC). Then, the median of the differences from all pairs was compared against a median of zero (Wilcoxon) and the 95% confidence interval of that median difference (CI) was calculated (Sign Test). Results RRMS had lower winter PTH than HC, P = 0.005, (CI -2.4 to 0.5 pmol/L, n = 28 pairs), and lower summer PTH, P = 0.04, (CI -1.8 to 0.5, n = 21 pairs). Lower PTH associates physiologically with lower intact FGF23 (iFGF23), yet RRMS had higher iFGF23 than HC in winter, P = 0.04, (CI -3 to 15 pg/mL, n = 28 pairs) and iFGF23 levels comparable to HC in summer, P = 0.14, (CI -5 to 13, n = 21 pairs). As PTH stimulates and FGF23 reduces, renal 1-alpha hydroxylase enzyme activity, which synthesises serum 1,25-dihyroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D) from serum 25OHD, we examined the ratio of serum 1,25(OH)2D to serum 25OHD. In winter, this ratio was lower in RRMS versus HC, P = 0.013, (CI -1.2 to - 0.3, n = 28 pairs). Conclusions This study revealed a dysequilibrium of the PTH-FGF23-vitamin D axis in RRMS, with lower plasma PTH, higher plasma iFGF23 and a lower serum 1,25(OH)2D to 25OHD ratio in RRMS compared with HC subjects. This dysequilibrium is consistent with the study hypothesis that in RRMS there is suppression of the parathyroid glands by inappropriately high plasma concentrations of iFGF23. Studying the basis of this dysequilibrium may provide insight into the pathogenesis of RRMS.

Central role of the proximal tubular αKlotho/FGF receptor complex in FGF23-regulated phosphate and vitamin D metabolism. Sci Rep 2018; 8:6917.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) plays critical roles in phosphate handling and vitamin D metabolism in the kidney. However, the effector cells of FGF23 in the kidney remain unclear. αKlotho, a putative enzyme possessing β-glucuronidase activity and also a permissive co-receptor for FGF23 to bind to FGF receptors (FGFRs), is expressed most abundantly in distal convoluted tubules, whereas it is expressed modestly in proximal tubules. Key molecular players of phosphate homeostasis and vitamin D-metabolizing enzymes are known to localize in proximal tubules. To clarify the direct function of FGF23 on proximal tubules, we ablated αKlotho or Fgfr1-4 genes specifically from these tubules using the Cre-loxP-mediated genetic recombination. Both conditional knockout mouse lines showed similar phenotypes that resembled those of systemic αKlotho or Fgf23 knockout mice. Compared with control mice, they showed significantly elevated levels of plasma phosphate, FGF23 and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, ectopic calcification in the kidney and aging-related phenotypes like growth retardation, osteoporosis and shortened lifespan. These findings suggest that the primary function of FGF23 on mineral metabolism is mediated through αKlotho/FGFR co-receptors expressed in proximal tubular cells, and that the putative enzymatic function of αKlotho in the proximal tubule has a minor role in systemic mineral metabolism.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone regulating vitamin D hormone production and renal handling of minerals by signaling through an FGF receptor/αKlotho (Klotho) receptor complex. Whether Klotho has FGF23-independent effects on mineral homeostasis is a controversial issue. Here, we aimed to shed more light on this controversy by comparing male and female triple knockout mice with simultaneous deficiency in Fgf23 and Klotho and a nonfunctioning vitamin D receptor (VDR) (Fgf23/Klotho/VDR) with double (Fgf23/VDR, Klotho/VDR, and Fgf23/Klotho) and single Fgf23, Klotho, and VDR mutants. As expected, 4-week-old Fgf23, Klotho, and Fgf23/Klotho knockout mice were hypercalcemic and hyperphosphatemic, whereas VDR, Fgf23/VDR, and Klotho/VDR mice on rescue diet were normocalcemic and normophosphatemic. Serum levels of calcium, phosphate, and sodium did not differ between 4-week-old triple Fgf23/Klotho/VDR and double Fgf23/VDR or Klotho/VDR knockout mice. Notably, 3-month-old Fgf23/Klotho/VDR triple knockout mice were indistinguishable from double Fgf23/VDR and Klotho/VDR compound mutants in terms of serum calcium, serum phosphate, serum sodium, and serum PTH, as well as urinary calcium and sodium excretion. Protein expression analysis revealed increased membrane abundance of sodium-phosphate co-transporter 2a (NaPi-2a), and decreased expression of sodium-chloride co-transporter (NCC) and transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 5 (TRPV5) in Fgf23/Klotho/VDR, Fgf23/VDR, and Klotho/VDR mice, relative to wild-type and VDR mice, but no differences between triple and double knockouts. Further, ex vivo treatment of live kidney slices isolated from wild-type and Klotho/VDR mice with soluble Klotho did not induce changes in intracellular phosphate, calcium or sodium accumulation assessed by two-photon microscopy. In conclusion, our data suggest that the main physiological function of Klotho for mineral homeostasis in vivo is its role as co-receptor mediating Fgf23 action. © 2017 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is the causative factor of X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), a genetic disorder effecting 1:20,000 that is characterized by excessive phosphate excretion, elevated FGF23 levels and a rickets/osteomalacia phenotype. FGF23 inhibits phosphate reabsorption and suppresses 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25D) biosynthesis, analytes that differentially contribute to bone integrity and deleterious soft-tissue mineralization. As inhibition of ligand broadly modulates downstream targets, balancing efficacy and unwanted toxicity is difficult when targeting the FGF23 pathway. We demonstrate that a FGF23 c-tail-Fc fusion molecule selectively modulates the phosphate pathway in vivo by competitive antagonism of FGF23 binding to the FGFR/α klotho receptor complex. Repeated injection of FGF23 c-tail Fc in Hyp mice, a preclinical model of XLH, increases cell surface abundance of kidney NaPi transporters, normalizes phosphate excretion, and significantly improves bone architecture in the absence of soft-tissue mineralization. Repeated injection does not modulate either 1,25D or calcium in a physiologically relevant manner in either a wild-type or disease setting. These data suggest that bone integrity can be improved in models of XLH via the exclusive modulation of phosphate. We posit that the selective modulation of the phosphate pathway will increase the window between efficacy and safety risks, allowing increased efficacy to be achieved in the treatment of this chronic disease. © 2017 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factors (FGF) are mitogenic signal mediators that induce cell proliferation and survival. Although cardiac myocytes are post-mitotic, they have been shown to be able to respond to local and circulating FGFs. While precise molecular mechanisms are not well characterized, some FGF family members have been shown to induce cardiac remodeling under physiologic conditions by mediating hypertrophic growth in cardiac myocytes and by promoting angiogenesis, both events leading to increased cardiac function and output. This FGF-mediated physiologic scenario might transition into a pathologic situation involving cardiac cell death, fibrosis and inflammation, and eventually cardiac dysfunction and heart failure. As discussed here, cardiac actions of FGFs - with the majority of studies focusing on FGF2, FGF21 and FGF23 - and their specific FGF receptors (FGFR) and precise target cell types within the heart, are currently under experimental investigation. Especially cardiac effects of endocrine FGFs entered center stage over the past five years, as they might provide communication routes that couple metabolic mechanisms, such as bone-regulated phosphate homeostasis, or metabolic stress, such as hyperphosphatemia associated with kidney injury, with changes in cardiac structure and function. In this context, it has been shown that elevated serum FGF23 can directly tackle cardiac myocytes via FGFR4 thereby contributing to cardiac hypertrophy in models of chronic kidney disease, also called uremic cardiomyopathy. Precise characterization of FGFs and their origin and regulation of expression, and even more importantly, the identification of the FGFR isoforms that mediate their cardiac actions should help to develop novel pharmacological interventions for heart failure, such as FGFR4 inhibition to tackle uremic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone protecting against the potentially deleterious effects of hyperphosphatemia by suppression of phosphate reabsorption and of active vitamin D hormone synthesis in the kidney. The kidney is one of the main target organs of FGF23 signaling. The purpose of this review is to highlight the recent advances in the area of FGF23-Klotho signaling in the kidney. During recent years, it has become clear that FGF23 acts independently on proximal and distal tubular epithelium. In proximal renal tubules, FGF23 suppresses phosphate reabsorption by a Klotho dependent activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase-1/2 (ERK1/2) and of serum/glucocorticoid-regulated kinase-1 (SGK1), leading to phosphorylation of the scaffolding protein Na+/H+ exchange regulatory cofactor (NHERF)-1 and subsequent internalization and degradation of sodium-phosphate cotransporters. In distal renal tubules, FGF23 augments calcium and sodium reabsorption by increasing the apical membrane expression of the epithelial calcium channel TRPV5 and of the sodium-chloride cotransporter NCC through a Klotho dependent activation of with-no-lysine kinase-4 (WNK4). In proximal and distal renal tubules, FGF receptor-1 is probably the dominant FGF receptor mediating the effects of FGF23 by forming a complex with membrane-bound Klotho in the basolateral membrane. The newly described sodium- and calcium-conserving functions of FGF23 may have major implications for the pathophysiology of diseases characterized by chronically increased circulating FGF23 concentrations such as chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
In response to kidney damage, osteocytes increase the production of several hormones critically involved in mineral metabolism. Recent studies suggest that osteocyte function is altered very early in the course of chronic kidney disease. In the present study, to clarify the role of osteocytes and the canalicular network in mineral homeostasis, we performed four experiments. In Experiment 1, we investigated renal and intestinal Pi handling in osteocyte-less (OCL) model mice [transgenic mice with the dentin matrix protein-1 promoter-driven diphtheria toxin (DT)-receptor that were injected with DT]. In Experiment 2, we administered granulocyte colony-stimulating factor to mice to disrupt the osteocyte canalicular network. In Experiment 3, we investigated the role of osteocytes in dietary Pi signaling. In Experiment 4, we analyzed gene expression level fluctuations in the intestine and liver by comparing mice fed a high Pi diet and OCL mice. Together, the findings of these experiments indicate that osteocyte ablation caused rapid renal Pi excretion (P < 0.01) before the plasma fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels increased. At the same time, we observed a rapid suppression of renal Klotho (P < 0.01), type II sodium phosphate transporters Npt2a (P < 0.01) and Npt2c (P < 0.05), and an increase in intestinal Npt2b (P < 0.01) protein. In OCL mice, Pi excretion in feces was markedly reduced (P < 0.01). Together, these effects of osteocyte ablation are predicted to markedly increase intestinal Pi absorption (P < 0.01), thus suggesting that increased intestinal Pi absorption stimulates renal Pi excretion in OCL mice. In addition, the ablation of osteocytes and feeding of a high Pi diet affected FGF15/bile acid metabolism and controlled Npt2b expression. In conclusion, OCL mice exhibited increased renal Pi excretion due to enhanced intestinal Pi absorption. We discuss the role of FGF23-Klotho on renal and intestinal Pi metabolism in OCL mice.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone that regulates phosphate homeostasis. Circulating FGF23 is elevated in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and independently associated with poor renal and cardiovascular outcomes and mortality. Because the study of FGF23 in individuals with normal renal function has received little attention, we examined in a large, population-based study of 1128 participants the associations of FGF23 with markers of mineral metabolism and renal function. The median estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of the cohort was 105 ml/min per 1.73 m(2), and the median plasma FGF23 was 78.5 RU/ml. FGF23 increased and plasma 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 decreased significantly below an eGFR threshold of 102 and 99 ml/min per 1.73 m(2), respectively. In contrast, plasma parathyroid hormone increased continuously with decreasing eGFR and was first significantly elevated at an eGFR of 126 ml/min per 1.73 m(2). On multivariable analysis adjusting for sex, age, body mass index, and GFR, FGF23 was negatively associated with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, and urinary absolute and fractional calcium excretion but not with serum calcium or parathyroid hormone. We found a positive association of FGF23 with plasma phosphate, but no association with urinary absolute or fractional phosphate excretion and, unexpectedly, a positive association with tubular maximum phosphate reabsorption/GFR. Thus, in the absence of CKD, parathyroid hormone increases earlier than FGF23 when the eGFR decreases. The increase in FGF23 occurs at a higher eGFR threshold than previously reported and is closely associated with a decrease in 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. We speculate that the main demonstrable effect of FGF23 in the setting of preserved renal function is suppression of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 rather than stimulation of renal phosphate excretion.

Abstract
A postnatal role of fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 (FGFR1) in the kidney is suggested by its binding to α-Klotho to form an obligate receptor for the hormone fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23). FGFR1 is expressed in both the proximal and distal renal tubular segments, but its tubular specific functions are unclear. In this study, we crossed Fgfr1flox/flox mice with either gamma-glutamyltransferase-Cre (γGT-Cre) or kidney specific-Cre (Ksp-Cre) mice to selectively create proximal tubule (PT) and distal tubule (DT) Fgfr1 conditional knockout mice (designated Fgfr1PT-cKOand Fgfr1DT-cKO, respectively). Fgfr1PT-cKO mice exhibited an increase in sodium-dependent phosphate co-transporter expression, hyperphosphatemia, and refractoriness to the phosphaturic actions of FGF-23, consistent with a direct role of FGFR1 in mediating the proximal tubular phosphate responses to FGF-23. In contrast, Fgfr1DT-cKO mice unexpectedly developed hypercalciuria, secondary elevations of parathyroid hormone (PTH), hypophosphatemia and enhanced urinary phosphate excretion. Fgfr1PT-cKO mice also developed a curly tail/spina bifida-like skeletal phenotype, whereas Fgfr1DT-cKO mice developed renal tubular micro-calcifications and reductions in cortical bone thickness. Thus, FGFR1 has dual functions to directly regulate proximal and distal tubule phosphate and calcium reabsorption, indicating a physiological role of FGFR1 signaling in both phosphate and calcium homeostasis.

Abstract
1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25D) is the renal metabolite of vitamin D that signals through binding to the nuclear vitamin D receptor (VDR). The ligand-receptor complex transcriptionally regulates genes encoding factors stimulating calcium and phosphate absorption plus bone remodeling, maintaining a skeleton with reduced risk of age-related osteoporotic fractures. 1,25D/VDR signaling exerts feedback control of Ca/PO4 via regulation of FGF23, klotho, and CYP24A1 to prevent age-related, ectopic calcification, fibrosis, and associated pathologies. Vitamin D also elicits xenobiotic detoxification, oxidative stress reduction, neuroprotective functions, antimicrobial defense, immunoregulation, anti-inflammatory/anticancer actions, and cardiovascular benefits. Many of the healthspan advantages conferred by 1,25D are promulgated by its induction of klotho, a renal hormone that is an anti-aging enzyme/coreceptor that protects against skin atrophy, osteopenia, hyperphosphatemia, endothelial dysfunction, cognitive defects, neurodegenerative disorders, and impaired hearing. In addition to the high-affinity 1,25D hormone, low-affinity nutritional VDR ligands including curcumin, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and anthocyanidins initiate VDR signaling, whereas the longevity principles resveratrol and SIRT1 potentiate VDR signaling. 1,25D exerts actions against neural excitotoxicity and induces serotonin mood elevation to support cognitive function and prosocial behavior. Together, 1,25D and klotho maintain the molecular signaling systems that promote growth (p21), development (Wnt), antioxidation (Nrf2/FOXO), and homeostasis (FGF23) in tissues crucial for normal physiology, while simultaneously guarding against malignancy and degeneration. Therefore, liganded-VDR modulates the expression of a "fountain of youth" array of genes, with the klotho target emerging as a major player in the facilitation of health span by delaying the chronic diseases of aging.

Abstract
In this review, we focus on the interconnection of inorganic phosphate (Pi) homeostasis in the network of the bone-kidney, parathyroid-kidney, intestine-kidney, and liver-kidney axes. Such a network of organ communication is important for body Pi homeostasis. Normalization of serum Pi levels is a clinical target in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Particularly, disorders of the fibroblast growth factor 23/klotho system are observed in early CKD. Identification of phosphaturic factors from the intestine and liver may enhance our understanding of body Pi homeostasis and Pi metabolism disturbances in CKD patients.

Abstract
Glycogen synthase kinase (GSK)-3 is a ubiquitously expressed kinase inhibited by insulin-dependent Akt/PKB/SGK. Mice expressing Akt/PKB/SGK-resistant GSK3α/GSK3β (gsk3(KI)) exhibit enhanced sympathetic nervous activity and phosphaturia with decreased bone density. Hormones participating in phosphate homeostasis include fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-23, a bone-derived hormone that inhibits 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3; calcitriol) formation and phosphate reabsorption in the kidney and counteracts vascular calcification and aging. FGF23 secretion is stimulated by the sympathetic nervous system. We studied the role of GSK3-controlled sympathetic activity in FGF23 production and phosphate metabolism. Serum FGF23, 1,25(OH)2D3, and urinary vanillylmandelic acid (VMA) were measured by ELISA, and serum and urinary phosphate and calcium were measured by photometry in gsk3(KI) and gsk3(WT) mice, before and after 1 wk of oral treatment with the β-blocker propranolol. Urinary VMA excretion, serum FGF23, and renal phosphate and calcium excretion were significantly higher, and serum 1,25(OH)2D3 and phosphate concentrations were lower in gsk3(KI) mice than in gsk3(WT) mice. Propranolol treatment decreased serum FGF23 and loss of renal calcium and phosphate and increased serum phosphate concentration in gsk3(KI) mice. We conclude that Akt/PKB/SGK-sensitive GSK3 inhibition participates in the regulation of FGF23 release, 1,25(OH)2D3 formation, and thus mineral metabolism, by controlling the activity of the sympathetic nervous system.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), which is produced in bone, participates in the maintenance of phosphate metabolism and can serve as a biomarker for adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease. Circulating FGF23 rapidly increases after acute kidney injury (AKI), preceding other known markers such as neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and serum creatinine. The increase in FGF23 in AKI appears to be independent of parathyroid hormone, vitamin D signaling pathways, and dietary phosphate. The potential mechanisms include: (1) increased production of FGF23 in the bone by yet-to-be-identified factors; (2) ectopic production of FGF23 by injured renal tubules; and (3) decreased renal clearance of circulating FGF23. Circulating FGF23 determined by intact FGF23 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is a more reliable biomarker of AKI than FGF23 C-terminal ELISA (a mixed readout of C-terminal fragment and intact FGF23). Given that FGF23 can be ectopically expressed in differentiated renal tubules and iron modulates FGF23 metabolism, an effect of iron on FGF23 expression in renal tubules is conceivable but remains to be confirmed. More clinical and experimental studies are required to validate the use of circulating FGF23 as a biomarker for the early identification of AKI and prediction of short- and long-term adverse outcomes post-AKI. More importantly, the biologic effect of increased FGF23 in AKI needs to be defined.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factors (FGF) and their tyrosine kinase receptors (FGFR) support cell proliferation, survival and migration during embryonic development, organogenesis and tissue maintenance and their deregulation is frequently observed in cancer development and progression. Consequently, increasing efforts are focusing on the development of strategies to target FGF/FGFR signaling for cancer therapy. Among the FGFRs the family member FGFR4 is least well understood and differs from FGFRs1-3 in several aspects. Importantly, FGFR4 deletion does not lead to an embryonic lethal phenotype suggesting the possibility that its inhibition in cancer therapy might not cause grave adverse effects. In addition, the FGFR4 kinase domain differs sufficiently from those of FGFRs1-3 to permit development of highly specific inhibitors. The oncogenic impact of FGFR4, however, is not undisputed, as the FGFR4-mediated hormonal effects of several FGF ligands may also constitute a tissue-protective tumor suppressor activity especially in the liver. Therefore it is the purpose of this review to summarize all relevant aspects of FGFR4 physiology and pathophysiology and discuss the options of targeting this receptor for cancer therapy.

Abstract
The signaling component of the mammalian Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) family is comprised of eighteen secreted proteins that interact with four signaling tyrosine kinase FGF receptors (FGFRs). Interaction of FGF ligands with their signaling receptors is regulated by protein or proteoglycan cofactors and by extracellular binding proteins. Activated FGFRs phosphorylate specific tyrosine residues that mediate interaction with cytosolic adaptor proteins and the RAS-MAPK, PI3K-AKT, PLCγ, and STAT intracellular signaling pathways. Four structurally related intracellular non-signaling FGFs interact with and regulate the family of voltage gated sodium channels. Members of the FGF family function in the earliest stages of embryonic development and during organogenesis to maintain progenitor cells and mediate their growth, differentiation, survival, and patterning. FGFs also have roles in adult tissues where they mediate metabolic functions, tissue repair, and regeneration, often by reactivating developmental signaling pathways. Consistent with the presence of FGFs in almost all tissues and organs, aberrant activity of the pathway is associated with developmental defects that disrupt organogenesis, impair the response to injury, and result in metabolic disorders, and cancer.

Abstract
Hyperphosphatemic familial tumoral calcinosis (hFTC) is a rare disorder of phosphate metabolism defined by hyperphosphatemia and ectopic calcifications in various locations. To date, recessive mutations have been described in three genes involving phosphate metabolism: FGF23, GALNT3, and α-Klotho, all of which result in the phenotypic presentation of hFTC. These mutations result in either inadequate intact fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) secretion (FGF23 or GALNT3) or resistance to FGF23 activity at the fibroblast growth factor receptor/α-Klotho complex (α-Klotho). The biochemical consequence of limitations in FGF23 activity includes increased renal tubular reabsorption of phosphate, hyperphosphatemia, and increased production of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. The resultant ectopic calcifications can be painful and debilitating. Medical treatments are targeted toward decreasing intestinal phosphate absorption or increasing phosphate excretion; however, results have been variable and generally limited. Treatments that would increase FGF23 levels or signaling would more appropriately target the genetic etiologies of this disease and perhaps be more effective.

Abstract
Phosphate is essential for growth and maintenance of the skeleton and for generating high-energy phosphate compounds. Evolutionary adaptation to high dietary phosphorous in humans and other terrestrial vertebrates involves regulated mechanisms assuring the efficient renal elimination of excess phosphate. These mechanisms prominently include PTH, FGF23, and Vitamin D, which directly and indirectly regulate phosphate transport. Disordered phosphate homeostasis is associated with pathologies ranging from kidney stones to kidney failure. Chronic kidney disease results in hyperphosphatemia, an elevated calcium×phosphate product with considerable morbidity and mortality, mostly associated with adverse cardiovascular events. This chapter highlights recent findings and insights regarding the hormonal regulation of renal phosphate transport along with imbalances of phosphate balance due to acquired or inherited diseases states.

Abstract
The functional significance of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling in bone formation has been demonstrated through genetic loss-of-function and gain-of-function approaches. FGFs, comprising 22 family members, are classified into three subfamilies: canonical, hormone-like, and intracellular. The former two subfamilies activate their signaling pathways through FGF receptors (FGFRs). Currently, intracellular FGFs appear to be primarily involved in the nervous system. Canonical FGFs such as FGF2 play significant roles in bone formation, and precise spatiotemporal control of FGFs and FGFRs at the transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels may allow for the functional diversity of FGFs during bone formation. Recently, several research groups, including ours, have shown that FGF23, a member of the hormone-like FGF subfamily, is primarily expressed in osteocytes/osteoblasts. This polypeptide decreases serum phosphate levels by inhibiting renal phosphate reabsorption and vitamin D3 activation, resulting in mineralization defects in the bone. Thus, FGFs are involved in the positive and negative regulation of bone formation. In this review, we focus on the reciprocal roles of FGFs in bone formation in relation to their local versus systemic effects.
