Comparison of particle-size analyzing laboratory methods [PDF]
Patients with chronic renal failure are known to have renal osteodystrophy (bone disease) and increased calcification of vessels. A new marker of bone disease, sclerostin, the two pro-inflammatory cytokines tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and ...

Fibroblast growth factor 23 and cardiovascular disease in patients with chronic kidney disease [PDF]
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been known to be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) mortality and morbidity in Japan. Although traditional risk factors contribute to the development of CV disease in CKD patients, they cannot fully ...

Serum fibroblast growth factor 23, serum iron and bone mineral density in premenopausal women [PDF]
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) circulates as active protein and inactive fragments. Low iron status increases FGF23 gene expression, and iron deficiency is common. We hypothesized that in healthy premenopausal women, serum iron influences C-terminal

Role of Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) and αKlotho in Cancer
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 ...

Fibroblast-growth factor 23 promotes terminal differentiation of ATDC5 cells. [PDF]
Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) is well documented as a crucial player in the systemic regulation of phosphate homeostasis. Moreover, loss-of-function experiments have revealed that FGF23 also has a phosphate-independent and local impact on ...

Inflammation regulates fibroblast growth factor 23 production [PDF]
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a hormone secreted by osteocytes and osteoblasts that regulates phosphorus and vitamin D homeostasis. FGF23 levels increase progressively in chronic kidney disease (CKD), and FGF23 excess might be a causal factor of left ventricular hypertrophy, CKD progression and death.

Fibroblast Growth Factor-23 and a Vegetarian Diet [PDF]
Sparse data exist on population distributions of serum fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) levels from developing, middle-income economies. FGF23 levels may differ substantially across regions based on differences in diet and urbanization. In a population-based study from North India, we tested the hypothesis that urinary phosphate excretion and FGF23 ...

Dietary phosphorus oversupply wastes non-renewable natural resources and raises environmental concerns in animal agriculture. We hypothesized that laying hens do not need large safety margins for dietary phosphorus because of the existence of fibroblast ...
