Inflammation, iron and vitamin D metabolism in different cardiomyopathy aetiologies
Immune activation coincides with disturbances in iron and vitamin D metabolism in patients with cardiomyopathy. In this study, we investigated whether there are differences regarding immune activation, iron and vitamin D metabolism between the different ...

BackgroundWhether fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) directly induces left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) remains controversial. Recent studies showed an association between FGF23 and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). The aim of this study

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

The bone-derived hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) acts in concert with parathyroid hormone (PTH) and the active vitamin D metabolite calcitriol in the regulation of calcium (Ca) and phosphate (P) homeostasis.

Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 23 produced by the bone is the principal hormone to regulate serum phosphate level. Serum FGF23 needs to be tightly regulated to maintain serum phosphate in a narrow range.

Anti-FGF23 Neutralizing Antibodies Show the Physiological Role and Structural Features of FGF23 [PDF]
Abstract Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)23 is proposed to play a physiological role in the regulation of phosphate and vitamin D metabolism; deranged circulatory levels of FGF23 cause several diseases with abnormal mineral metabolism.

ABSTRACT Introduction Tenapanor, a minimally absorbed intestinal NHE3 inhibitor approved for hyperphosphatemia in dialysis, lowers phosphate and reduces intestinal sodium absorption. Its sodium–water signal may have implications beyond phosphate but remains poorly separated from diarrhea‐mediated losses and dialysis prescription artifacts. Methods This

Abstract Chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD‐MBD) is a major complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), characterized by disruptions in mineral metabolism, abnormal bone turnover and vascular calcification, which collectively increase the risk of fractures and cardiovascular disease.

FGF23-Mediated Activation of Local RAAS Promotes Cardiac Hypertrophy and Fibrosis
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are prone to developing cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, which is associated with increased fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) serum levels.

Vitamin D3 (25[OH]D3) insufficiency and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) elevation are usually attenuated after kidney transplantation (KT). However, elevated FGF23 may be associated with poor graft outcomes and vitamin D insufficiency after KT.
