Abstract
Introduction X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is caused by an inactivating mutation in the phosphate-regulating endopeptidase X-linked (PHEX) gene whose defective product fails to control phosphatonin fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) serum levels. Although elevated FGF23 levels have been linked with detrimental cardiac effects, the cardiologic outcomes in XLH patients have been subject to debate. Our study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and severity of cardiovascular morbidity in pediatric XLH patients before, during, and after a 2-year treatment period with burosumab, a recombinant anti-FGF23 antibody. Methods This prospective observational study was conducted in a tertiary medical center, and included 13 individuals with XLH (age range 0.6-16.2 years) who received burosumab every 2 weeks. Clinical assessment at treatment initiation and after .5, 1, and 2 years of uninterrupted treatment included anthropometric measurements and cardiologic evaluations (blood pressure [BP], electrocardiogram, conventional echocardiography, and myocardial strain imaging). Results The linear growth of all patients improved significantly (mean height z-score: from -1.70 ± 0.80 to -0.96 ± 1.08, P=0.03). Other favorable effects were decline in overweight/obesity rates (from 46.2% to 23.1%) and decreased rates of elevated BP (systolic BP from 38.5% to 15.4%; diastolic BP from 38.5% to 23.1%). Electrocardiograms revealed no significant abnormality throughout the study period. Cardiac dimensions and myocardial strain parameters were within the normative range for age at baseline and remained unchanged during the study period. Conclusion Cardiologic evaluations provided reassurance that 2 years of burosumab therapy did not cause cardiac morbidity. The beneficial effect of this treatment was a reduction in cardiovascular risk factors, as evidenced by the lower prevalence of both overweight/obesity and elevated BP.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are highly prevalent conditions, each significantly contributing to the global burden of morbidity and mortality. CVD and CKD share a great number of common risk factors, such as hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and smoking, among others. Their relationship extends beyond these factors, encompassing intricate interplay between the two systems. Within this complex network of pathophysiological processes, vitamin D has emerged as a potential linchpin, exerting influence over diverse physiological pathways implicated in both CKD and CVD. In recent years, scientific exploration has unveiled a close connection between these two prevalent conditions and vitamin D, a crucial hormone traditionally recognized for its role in bone health. This article aims to provide an extensive review of vitamin D's multifaceted and expanding actions concerning its involvement in CKD and CVD.

Abstract
CONTEXT X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare genetic disorder that results in increased plasma levels of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). Several studies have demonstrated a direct association between FGF23 and cardiovascular mortality in cohorts of patients with chronic renal failure. However, in patients with XLH, studies on the cardiovascular impact of the disease are rare, with contradictory results. OBJECTIVE The aim was to assess whether the disease led to an increased cardiovascular risk. METHODS We conducted a single-center retrospective observational study on a local cohort of adult patients with XLH. The primary endpoint was a composite endpoint of the frequency of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) or presence of high blood pressure. Our secondary objectives were to assess echocardiographic, pulse wave velocity, and central blood pressure data as other markers of CV health. Independently of this cohort, tissue sodium content with magnetic resonance imaging was studied in 2 patients with XLH before and after burosumab. RESULTS Twenty-two patients were included. Median serum phosphate was 0.57 (0.47-0.72) mmol/L and FGF23 94 pg/L (58-2226). Median blood pressure was 124 (115-130)/68 (65-80) mm Hg, with only 9% of patients being hypertensive. A majority of patients (69%) had no LVH, only 1 had a left ventricular mass >100 g/m² and 25% of patients had left ventricular remodeling. Pulse wave velocity was normal in all patients. No differences in skin and muscle sodium content were observed before and after burosumab in the 2 patients who underwent sodium magnetic resonance imaging. CONCLUSION We found no elevated risk of developing hypertension or LVH in patients with XLH.

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 The underlying mechanisms of obesity in X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) are not known. We aimed to evaluate whether FGF21, an endocrine FGF involved in the regulation of carbohydrate-lipid metabolism, could be involved. METHODS We performed a prospective multicenter cross-sectional study comparing FGF23, Klotho, and FGF21 levels in teenagers with XLH compared to healthy controls (VITADOS cohort) after matching for age, gender, and puberty. Non-parametric tests were performed (results presented as median (min-max)). RESULTS A total of 40 XLH teenagers (n = 20 Standard Of Care, SOC, n = 20 burosumab) were included. While patients receiving burosumab displayed increased BMI as compared to patients receiving SOC, systolic blood pressure expressed as percentile was progressively and significantly lower when comparing the three groups: 77 (4-99) in SOC, 47 (9-98) in burosumab, and 28 (1-94) in controls (p = 0.007). When compared to patients receiving SOC, patients receiving burosumab displayed significantly increased phosphate and 1,25(OH)2D levels. We found increased Klotho levels in patients receiving burosumab. No differences were found for either carbohydrate-lipid biomarkers or FGF21 between the three groups. A total of 21 XLH patients (53%) had insulin resistance (HOMA > 2.4, N = 10 SOC, N = 11 burosumab). CONCLUSION FGF21 does not explain obesity/overweight in XLH. Of note, this study was performed in France in 2018-2019, early after the approval authorizing burosumab only in case of severe XLH despite SOC. As such, the data on systolic blood pressure highlighting a possible impact of burosumab to decrease blood pressure as well as increase Klotho levels deserve further studies given their potential effect on long-term cardiovascular risk. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

Abstract
Hypophosphatemic rickets typically presents in infancy or early childhood with skeletal deformities and growth plate abnormalities. The most common causes are genetic (such as X-linked hypophosphatemia), and these typically will result in lifelong hypophosphatemia and osteomalacia. Knowledge of phosphate metabolism, including the effects of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) (an osteocyte produced hormone that downregulates renal phosphate reabsorption and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin-D (1,25(OH)2D) production), is critical to determining the underlying genetic or acquired causes of hypophosphatemia and to facilitate appropriate treatment. Serum phosphorus should be measured in any child or adult with musculoskeletal complaints suggesting rickets or osteomalacia. Clinical evaluation incudes thorough history, physical examination, laboratory investigations, genetic analysis (especially in the absence of a guiding family history), and imaging to establish etiology and to monitor severity and treatment course. The treatment depends on the underlying cause, but often includes active forms of vitamin D combined with phosphate salts, or anti-FGF23 antibody treatment (burosumab) for X-linked hypophosphatemia. The purpose of this article is to explore the approach to evaluating hypophosphatemic rickets and its treatment options.

Abstract
CONTEXT X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare genetic disease caused by a primary excess of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). FGF23 has been associated with inflammation and impaired osteoclastogenesis, but these pathways have not been investigated in XLH. OBJECTIVE This work aimed to evaluate whether XLH patients display peculiar inflammatory profile and increased osteoclastic activity. METHODS We performed a prospective, multicenter, cross-sectional study analyzing transcript expression of 8 inflammatory markers (Il6, Il8, Il1β, CXCL1, CCL2, CXCR3, Il1R, Il6R) by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) purified from total blood samples extracted from patients and healthy control individuals. The effect of native/active vitamin D on osteoclast formation was also assessed in vitro from XLH patients' PBMCs. RESULTS In total, 28 XLH patients (17 children, among them 6 undergoing standard of care [SOC] and 11 burosumab therapy) and 19 controls were enrolled. Expression of most inflammatory markers was significantly increased in PBMCs from XLH patients compared to controls. No differences were observed between the burosumab and SOC subgroups. Osteoclast formation was significantly impaired in XLH patients. XLH mature osteoclasts displayed higher levels of inflammatory markers, being however lower in cells derived from the burosumab subgroup (as opposed to SOC). CONCLUSION We describe for the first time a peculiar inflammatory profile in XLH. Since XLH patients have a propensity to develop arterial hypertension, obesity, and enthesopathies, and because inflammation can worsen these clinical outcomes, we hypothesize that inflammation may play a critical role in these extraskeletal complications of XLH.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare genetic disorder with X-linked dominant inheritance. Mutations in the PHEX gene increase fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) concentrations, causing loss of phosphorus at the proximal tubule. Most pediatric patients debut in the first two years with short stature and bowed legs. Conventional treatment consists of oral supplements with phosphorus and calcitriol. Since 2018, burosumab has been approved as a novel therapeutic option for XLH, with promising results. The purpose of this study was to share our experience with two cases of XLH treated with burosumab. These patients presented with a broad phenotypical differences. One had the most severe radiological phenotype and developed left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and left ventricular dysfunction with preserved ejection fraction. Treatment with burosumab was well-tolerated and was followed by radiological stability and a striking improvement in both blood biochemistry and quality of life. The LVH was stable and left ventricular function normalized in the patient with cardiac involvement. In recent years many studies have been carried out to explain the role of FGF23 in cardiovascular damage, but the exact pathophysiological mechanisms are as yet unclear. The most intensively studied populations are patients with XLH or chronic kidney disease, as both are associated with high levels of FGF23. To date, cardiovascular involvement in XLH has been described in patients treated with conventional treatment, so it would be of interest to investigate if early use of burosumab at the time of diagnosis of XLH would prevent the occurrence of cardiovascular manifestations.

Clinical practice recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of X-linked hypophosphatemia: A consensus based on the ADAPTE method. Med Clin (Barc) 2022; 159:152.e1-152.e12. [PMID: 34953573 DOI: 10.1016/j.medcli.2021.07.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Revised: 07/20/2021] [Accepted: 07/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The objective of this project was to adapt to our setting following a systematic process based on the ADAPTE method the first clinical practice guidelines on X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) that were published in 2019. MATERIALS AND METHODS The adaptation of the guidelines to our application and implementation setting was carried out in three phases -start-up, adaptation, and finalization- by a group of experts involved in the management of patients with XLH. RESULTS Following the original guide, the recommendations agreed by the group that elaborated the guidelines for diagnosis, frequency and scope of visits and specific follow-up in children and adults are presented. On the other hand, recommendations are established for both age groups with conventional treatment, as well as with burosumab in children or adults and those related to the controversial use of growth hormone in children. Suggestions are also proposed regarding the monitoring and management of musculoskeletal disorders and orthopedic treatment in children, dental health and hearing, and neurosurgical complications. Finally, a series of questions and areas are raised in order to deepen the possible future investigation. CONCLUSIONS These recommendations constitute the systematic adaptation to our setting of the first evidence-based clinical practice guide for the diagnosis and management of XLH and we hope that they can contribute to the adequate management of the disease.

Abstract
Background The role of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) in the development of new‐onset heart failure (HF) with reduced (HFrEF) or preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) in the general population is unknown. Therefore, we set out to investigate associations of C‐terminal FGF23 with development of new‐onset HF and, more specifically, with HFrEF or HFpEF in a large, prospective, population‐based cohort. Methods and Results We studied 6830 participants (aged 53.8±12.1 years; 49.7% men; estimated glomerular filtration rate, 93.1±15.7 mL/min per 1.73 m2) in the community‐based PREVEND (Prevention of Renal and Vascular End‐Stage Disease) study who were free of HF at baseline. Cross‐sectional multivariable linear regression analysis showed that ferritin (standardized β, −0.24; P<0.001) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (standardized β, −0.13; P<0.001) were the strongest independent correlates of FGF23. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard regression was used to study the association between baseline FGF23 and incident HF, HFrEF (ejection fraction ≤40%) or HFpEF (ejection fraction ≥50%). After median follow‐up of 7.4 [IQR 6.9–7.9] years, 227 individuals (3.3%) developed new‐onset HF, of whom 132 had HFrEF and 88 had HFpEF. A higher FGF23 level was associated with an increased risk of incident HF (fully adjusted hazard ratio, 1.29 [95% CI, 1.06–1.57]) and with an increased risk of incident HFrEF (fully adjusted hazard ratio, 1.31 [95% CI, 1.01–1.69]). The association between FGF23 and incident HFpEF lost statistical significance after multivariable adjustment (hazard ratio, 1.22 [95% CI, 0.87–1.71]). Conclusions Higher FGF23 is independently associated with new‐onset HFrEF in analyses fully adjusted for cardiovascular risk factors and other potential confounders. The association between FGF23 and incident HFpEF lost statistical significance upon multivariable adjustment.

Abstract
High circulating levels of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) are associated with left ventricular hypertrophy as well as increased morbidity and mortality in patients suffering from chronic kidney disease. However, the mechanisms underlying this association are controversial. Here, we aimed to further characterize the cardiovascular sequelae of long term endogenous FGF23 hypersecretion using 14-month-old male Hyp mice as a model of FGF23 excess. Hyp mice were characterized by a ~10-fold increase in circulating intact FGF23, hypophosphatemia, increased serum aldosterone, but normal kidney function, relative to wildtype (WT) controls. Cardiovascular phenotyping did not reveal any evidence of left ventricular hypertrophy or functional impairment in 14-month-old Hyp mice. Fractional shortening, ejection fraction, molecular markers of hypertrophy (Anp, Bnp), and intracardiac markers of contractility and diastolic function were all unchanged in these animals. However, intraarterial catheterization revealed an increase in systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial pressure of ~12 mm Hg in aged Hyp mice relative to WT controls. Hypertension in Hyp mice was associated with increased peripheral vascular resistance. To test the hypothesis that a stimulation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) contributes to hypertension in aged Hyp mice, we administered the angiotensin receptor blocker losartan (30 mg/kg twice daily) or the mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist canrenone (30 mg/kg once daily) to aged Hyp and WT mice over 5 days. Both drugs had minor effects on blood pressure in WT mice, but reduced blood pressure and peripheral vascular resistance in Hyp mice, suggesting that a stimulation of the RAAS contributes to hypertension in aged Hyp mice.

Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 and Outcome Prediction in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11030601.

Abstract
(1) Background: Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is associated with mortality in patients with heart failure (HF); however, less is known about mortality associations in patients with myocardial infarction (MI). (2) Methods: FGF23 was assessed in 180 patients with acute MI, 99 of whom presented with concomitant acute HF. Patients were followed up for one year, and outcome estimates by FGF23 were compared to GRACE score estimates. (3) Results: Log-transformed serum levels of intact FGF23 (logFGF23) did not differ between MI patients with and without HF, and no difference in logFGF23 was observed between 14 MI patients who died and those who survived. However, when only MI patients with concomitant HF were considered, logFGF23 was significantly higher among non-survivors compared to that in survivors. While logFGF23 was not associated with the outcome in the entire cohort, logFGF23 was fairly predictive for one-year mortality in patients with concomitant HF (AUC 0.78; 95%CI 0.61–0.95), where it outperformed GRACE score estimates (AUC 0.70; 95%CI 0.46–0.94). (4) Conclusions: FGF23 was associated with one-year mortality only in MI patients who concomitantly presented with HF, surpassing the predictive ability of GRACE score estimates. No associations were observed in patients without HF despite similar FGF23 levels at admission. Further studies are warranted to investigate whether FGF23 is causal for dismal outcome of HF.

Abstract
UNLABELLED X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH) is a lifelong condition. Despite the mounting clinical evidence highlighting the long-term multi-organ sequelae of chronic phosphate wasting and consequent hypophosphatemia over the lifetime and the morbidities associated with adult age, XLH is still perceived as a paediatric disease. INTRODUCTION Children who have XLH need to transition from paediatric to adult healthcare as young adults. While there is general agreement that all affected children should be treated (if the administration and tolerability of therapy can be adequately monitored), there is a lack of consensus regarding therapy in adults. METHODS To provide guidance in both diagnosis and treatment of adult XLH patients and promote better provision of care for this potentially underserved group of patients, we review the available clinical evidence and discuss the current challenges underlying the transition from childhood to adulthood care to develop appropriate management and follow-up patterns in adult XLH patients. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Such a multi-systemic lifelong disease would demand that the multidisciplinary approach, successfully experienced in children, could be transitioned to adulthood care with an integration of specialized sub-disciplines to efficiently control musculoskeletal symptoms while optimizing patients' QoL. Overall, it would be desirable that transition to adulthood care could be a responsibility shared by the paediatric and adult XLH teams. Pharmacological management should require an adequate balance between the benefits derived from the treatment itself with complicated and long-term monitoring and the potential risks, as they may differ across age strata.

Abstract
Elevated fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) levels are associated with adverse outcome in populations with cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney failure. It is unclear if FGF23 has significance in prognosis estimation in patients with acute heart failure (HF) when compared to traditional risk estimation tools. Serum levels of intact FGF23 were assessed in 139 patients admitted to the Intermediate Care Unit of a tertiary hospital for acute HF. Patients were followed-up for one year. After exclusion of patients who were lost to follow-up, data outliers, and patients with sampling errors, the final study cohort comprised 133 patients. The Seattle Heart Failure (SHF) Model was used to estimate one-year survival. FGF23 levels correlated with HF severity and were strongly associated with one-year mortality. Associations between one-year outcome and FGF23, assessed on day 1 after admission, were still evident after multivariable adjustment (OR 15.07; 95%CI 1.75-129.79; p = 0.014). FGF23 levels predicted the one-year outcome with similar accuracy as the SHF Model, both if assessed on day 1 and on day 2 after admission (FGF23d1: AUC 0.784; 95%CI 0.669-0.899; FGF23d2: AUC 0.766; 95%CI 0.631-0.901; SHF: AUC 0.771; 95%CI 0.651-0.891). The assessment of FGF23 in patients with acute HF might help identify high-risk patients that are more prone to complications, need a closer follow-up and more aggressive treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and it is associated with changes in calcium and phosphate. These related changes have been associated with increased cardiovascular mortality and CKD progression. It is not clear whether negative outcomes linked to SHPT are confounded by such factors. The present study was designed to assess the possible independent effects of SHPT (defined as patients with excessive PTH levels or on treatment with PTH reducing agents) on the risk of CKD progression and CVE incidence in CKD patients, as well as whether hypercalcemia and/or hyperphosphatemia act as effect modifiers. METHODS The study enrolled 2445 CKD patients without previous CVE from the NEFRONA cohort (950 stage 3, 612 stage 4, 195 stage 5 and 688 on Dialysis). Multivariate logistic and Fine and Gray regression analysis were used to determine the risk of patients of suffering CKD progression or a CVE. RESULTS Prevalence of SHPT in the whole cohort was 65.6% (CKD 3 54.7%; CKD 4 74.7%; CKD 5 71.4%; Dialysis 68.6%). After 2-years, 301 patients presented CKD progression. During 4-years follow-up, 203 CVE were registered. Patients with SHPT showed a higher adjusted risk for CKD progression and CVE. Furthermore, hyperphosphatemia was shown to be an independent risk factor in both outcomes and did not modify SHPT effect. No significant interactions were detected between the presence of SHPT and hypercalcemia or hyperphosphatemia. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that SHPT and hyperphosphatemia are independently associated with CKD progression and the incidence of CVE in CKD patients.

Abstract
Hypertension (HTN) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are increasingly recognized in pediatric patients and represent risk factors for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality later in life. In CKD, enhanced tubular sodium reabsorption is a leading cause of HTN due to augmented extracellular fluid volume expansion. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) upregulates various tubular sodium cotransporters that are also targets of the hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and its co-receptor Klotho. FGF23 inhibits the activation of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D that is a potent suppressor of renin biosynthesis. Here we review the complex interactions and disturbances of the FGF23-Klotho axis, vitamin D, and the RAAS relevant to blood pressure regulation and discuss the therapeutic strategies aimed at mitigating their pathophysiologic contributions to HTN.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common genetic form of hypophosphatemic rickets and osteomalacia. In this disease, mutations in the PHEX gene lead to elevated levels of the hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), resulting in renal phosphate wasting and impaired skeletal and dental mineralization. Recently, international guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of this condition have been published. However, more specific recommendations are needed to provide guidance at the national level, considering resource availability and health economic aspects. A national multidisciplinary group of Belgian experts convened to discuss translation of international best available evidence into locally feasible consensus recommendations. Patients with XLH may present to a wide array of primary, secondary and tertiary care physicians, among whom awareness of the disease should be raised. XLH has a very broad differential-diagnosis for which clinical features, biochemical and genetic testing in centers of expertise are recommended. Optimal care requires a multidisciplinary approach, guided by an expert in metabolic bone diseases and involving (according to the individual patient's needs) pediatric and adult medical specialties and paramedical caregivers, including but not limited to general practitioners, dentists, radiologists and orthopedic surgeons. In children with severe or refractory symptoms, FGF23 inhibition using burosumab may provide superior outcomes compared to conventional medical therapy with phosphate supplements and active vitamin D analogues. Burosumab has also demonstrated promising results in adults on certain clinical outcomes such as pseudofractures. In summary, this work outlines recommendations for clinicians and policymakers, with a vision for improving the diagnostic and therapeutic landscape for XLH patients in Belgium.

[PMID: 32710160 PMCID: PMC7755619 DOI: 10.1007/s00198-020-05548-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2020] [Accepted: 07/08/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
UNLABELLED This systematic review collated evidence on the burden of XLH in adults. Data captured highlight the substantial ongoing burden of XLH in adulthood and identified unmet needs. Greater awareness and understanding of the impact of XLH in adulthood are needed to improve care and outcomes in adults with XLH. INTRODUCTION X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH) is a rare metabolic bone disease characterized by renal phosphate wasting and musculoskeletal manifestations. Whilst the disease's impact in children is well documented, information on the effects of this progressive, debilitating condition on adults is lacking. This systematic review aimed to collate existing evidence on the burden of XLH in adulthood to identify unmet needs. METHODS MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane Library databases and recent congress reports were searched on 19 February 2019 for English-language publications describing the medical, humanistic and socio-economic impact of XLH in adults (≥ 18 years old). In addition, a structured Internet search was conducted. RESULTS Of the 2351 articles identified, 91 met the selection criteria along with 44 congress abstracts. Data show that adults with XLH experience a range of clinical manifestations, particularly skeletal deformities and (pseudo)fractures, along with pain, dental abnormalities and impaired physical function and mobility. XLH in adulthood impacts on quality of life and places limitations on daily activities. The level of healthcare resource utilization among adults with XLH is indicative of substantial socio-economic burden; further research is needed to quantitate the economic impact on the healthcare system, society and patients. Adults with XLH may not receive appropriate care and treatment; a possible explanation for this is a lack of awareness among healthcare professionals. CONCLUSION XLH in adults is associated with considerable disease burden and unmet needs. Forthcoming studies and increased awareness of the impact of XLH in adulthood should help to improve management of XLH in adulthood and patient outcomes.

Abstract
Cardiac hypertrophy is a common feature in patients with CKD. Recent studies revealed that two phosphate regulators, fibroblast growth factor-23 and α-Klotho, are highly involved in the pathophysiologic process of CKD-induced cardiac hypertrophy. With decreasing renal function, elevated fibroblast growth factor-23 and decreased α-Klotho may contribute to cardiac hypertrophy by targeting the heart directly or by inducing systemic changes, such as vascular injury, hemodynamic disorders, and inflammation. However, several studies have demonstrated that disturbances in the fibroblast growth factor-23/α-Klotho axis do not lead to cardiac hypertrophy. In this review, we describe the cardiac effects of the fibroblast growth factor-23/α-Klotho axis and summarize recent progress in this field. In addition, we present not only the main controversies in this field but also provide possible directions to resolve these disputes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Among the family of fibroblast growth factors (FGFs), FGF19, FGF21, and FGF23 act as circulating hormones and are called endocrine FGFs. FGF19 and FGF21 regulate bile acid and energy homeostasis, respectively, whereas FGF23 regulates vitamin D and phosphate homeostasis. Accumulating evidence suggests that FGF23 plays a critical role in disturbed mineral metabolisms, left ventricular hypertrophy, immunosuppression, inflammation, among others in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), highlighting the potential both as a biomarker and a therapeutic target. Several studies have also examined the potential role of FGF19 and FGF21 in CKD patients. AREAS COVERED In this review, we present a brief overview of the biology of FGF19, FGF21, and FGF23, and summarize recent clinical and experimental studies on the pathophysiological roles of endocrine FGFs, mainly FGF23, in CKD patients. EXPERT OPINION Among the endocrine FGFs, FGF23 represents the most promising biomarker in CKD patients. If future studies confirm that FGF23 is directly toxic in CKD patients, FGF23 could be regarded as a therapeutic target and its measurement would be valuable if applied in clinical practice. Despite their potentially important roles, the clinical relevance of FGF19 and FGF21 in CKD patients is unclear, and much more studies are required.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor can be measured in clinical practice using ELISA, with acceptable validity. Different from many metabolites and minerals, its value can differ by a thousand-fold between individuals, largely because of differences in kidney function and dietary habits. This wide range complicates the proper interpretation of the concentration of FGF23, both in terms of the appropriateness of a given value for a given estimated GFR, and in terms of estimating the magnitude of risk for clinical events, with which FGF23 is clearly associated. In this narrative review, the impact of kidney function, exposure to phosphate from diet, and novel emerging factors that influence FGF23 concentrations are discussed. These and yet to define determinants of FGF23 question the causality of the association of FGF23 with hard (cardiovascular) endpoints, as observed in several epidemiological studies.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH) is the most common cause of inherited phosphate wasting and is associated with severe complications such as rickets, lower limb deformities, pain, poor mineralization of the teeth and disproportionate short stature in children as well as hyperparathyroidism, osteomalacia, enthesopathies, osteoarthritis and pseudofractures in adults. The characteristics and severity of XLH vary between patients. Because of its rarity, the diagnosis and specific treatment of XLH are frequently delayed, which has a detrimental effect on patient outcomes. In this Evidence-Based Guideline, we recommend that the diagnosis of XLH is based on signs of rickets and/or osteomalacia in association with hypophosphataemia and renal phosphate wasting in the absence of vitamin D or calcium deficiency. Whenever possible, the diagnosis should be confirmed by molecular genetic analysis or measurement of levels of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) before treatment. Owing to the multisystemic nature of the disease, patients should be seen regularly by multidisciplinary teams organized by a metabolic bone disease expert. In this article, we summarize the current evidence and provide recommendations on features of the disease, including new treatment modalities, to improve knowledge and provide guidance for diagnosis and multidisciplinary care. In this Evidence-Based Guideline on X-linked hypophosphataemia, the authors identify the criteria for diagnosis of this disease, provide guidance for medical and surgical treatment and explain the challenges of follow-up.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is caused by mutations in the PHEX gene which result in Fibroblast Growth Factor-23 (FG-F23) excess and phosphate wasting. Clinically, XLH children present with rickets, bone deformities and short stature. In adulthood, patients may still be symptomatic with bone and joint pain, osteomalacia-related fractures or pseudofractures, precocious osteoarthrosis, enthesopathy, muscle weakness and severe dental anomalies. Besides these musculoskeletal and dental manifestations, adult XLH patients are also prone to secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism, cardiovascular and metabolic disorders. Pathophysiology of hyperparathyroidism is only partially understood but FGF23 excess and deficient production of calcitriol likely contributes to its development. Similarly, the pathophysiological mechanisms of potential cardiovascular and metabolic involvements are not clear, but FGF-23 excess may play an essential role. Treatment should be considered in symptomatic patients, patients undergoing orthopedic or dental surgery and women during pregnancy and lactation. Treatment with oral phosphate salts and active vitamin D analogs has incomplete efficacy and potential risks. Burosumab, a recombinant human monoclonal antibody against FGF-23, has proven its efficacy in phase 2 and phase 3 clinical trials in adult patients with XLH, but currently its position as first line or second line treatment differ among the countries.

Abstract
The term uraemic cardiomyopathy refers to the cardiac abnormalities that are seen in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Historically, this term was used to describe a severe cardiomyopathy that was associated with end-stage renal disease and characterized by severe functional abnormalities that could be reversed following renal transplantation. In a modern context, uraemic cardiomyopathy describes the clinical phenotype of cardiac disease that accompanies CKD and is perhaps best characterized as diastolic dysfunction seen in conjunction with left ventricular hypertrophy and fibrosis. A multitude of factors may contribute to the pathogenesis of uraemic cardiomyopathy, and current treatments only modestly improve outcomes. In this Review, we focus on evolving concepts regarding the roles of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), inflammation and systemic oxidant stress and their interactions with more established mechanisms such as pressure and volume overload resulting from hypertension and anaemia, respectively, activation of the renin-angiotensin and sympathetic nervous systems, activation of the transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) pathway, abnormal mineral metabolism and increased levels of endogenous cardiotonic steroids.

Abstract
Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) is a hormone involved in phosphate metabolism. It is known that FGF23 is increased in different pathologies including chronic kidney disease, heart failure or X-linked hypophosphatemia and directly correlates with negative outcome and mortality in severe diseases. However, the role of FGF23 in cardiovascular pathologies is still under debate. This review summarizes the current knowledge about the role of FGF23 in ischemic heart diseases, such as myocardial infarction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To find out if cardiovascular alterations are present in pediatric patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). STUDY DESIGN Multicentre prospective clinical study on pediatric patients included in the RenalTube database ( www.renaltube.com ) with genetically confirmed diagnosis of XLH by mutations in the PHEX gene. The study's protocol consisted of biochemical work-up, 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), carotid ultrasonography, and echocardiogram. All patients were on chronic treatment with phosphate supplements and 1-hydroxy vitamin D metabolites. RESULTS Twenty-four patients (17 females, from 1 to 17 years of age) were studied. Serum concentrations (X ± SD) of phosphate and intact parathyroid hormone were 2.66 ± 0.60 mg/dl and 58.3 ± 26.8 pg/ml, respectively. Serum fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) concentration was 278.18 ± 294.45 pg/ml (normal < 60 pg/ml). Abnormally high carotid intima media thickness was found in one patient, who was obese and hypertensive as revealed by ABPM, which disclosed arterial hypertension in two other patients. Z scores for echocardiographic interventricular septum end diastole and left ventricular posterior wall end diastole were + 0.77 ± 0.77 and + 0.94 ± 0.86, respectively. Left ventricular mass index (LVMI) was 44.93 ± 19.18 g/m2.7, and four patients, in addition to the obese one, had values greater than 51 g/m2.7, indicative of left ventricular hypertrophy. There was no correlation between these echocardiographic parameters and serum FGF23 concentrations. CONCLUSIONS XLH pediatric patients receiving conventional treatment have echocardiographic measurements of ventricular mass within normal reference values, but above the mean, and 18% have LVMI suggestive of left ventricular hypertrophy without correlation with serum FGF23 concentrations. This might indicate an increased risk of cardiovascular involvement in XLH.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) has appeared as a hormone that is massively elevated in patients with chronic kidney disease. Whether FGF23 is a risk factor that associates with cardiac pathologies and cardiovascular mortality, as suggested by a variety of clinical studies, or additionally acts as a causative factor that induces cardiac injury, as more recently indicated by cell culture and animal studies, is under debate and the center of many ongoing experimental studies.

Abstract
Background X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is an inherited disease of phosphate metabolism in which inactivating mutations of the Phosphate Regulating Endopeptidase Homolog, X-Linked (PHEX) gene lead to local and systemic effects including impaired growth, rickets, osteomalacia, bone abnormalities, bone pain, spontaneous dental abscesses, hearing difficulties, enthesopathy, osteoarthritis, and muscular dysfunction. Patients with XLH present with elevated levels of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), which is thought to mediate many of the aforementioned manifestations of the disease. Elevated FGF23 has also been observed in many other diseases of hypophosphatemia, and a range of animal models have been developed to study these diseases, yet the role of FGF23 in the pathophysiology of XLH is incompletely understood. Methods The role of FGF23 in the pathophysiology of XLH is here reviewed by describing what is known about phenotypes associated with various PHEX mutations, animal models of XLH, and non-nutritional diseases of hypophosphatemia, and by presenting molecular pathways that have been proposed to contribute to manifestations of XLH. Results The pathophysiology of XLH is complex, involving a range of molecular pathways that variously contribute to different manifestations of the disease. Hypophosphatemia due to elevated FGF23 is the most obvious contributor, however localised fluctuations in tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP), pyrophosphate, calcitriol and direct effects of FGF23 have been observed to be associated with certain manifestations. Conclusions By describing what is known about these pathways, this review highlights key areas for future research that would contribute to the understanding and clinical treatment of non-nutritional diseases of hypophosphatemia, particularly XLH.

Abstract
Both the activation of the renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) and elevations of circulating Fibroblast Growth Factor-23 (FGF-23) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in chronic kidney disease. To investigate potential cross-talk between RAAS and FGF-23, we administered angiotensin II (Ang II) to wild-type rodents and the Hyp mouse model of excess FGF-23. Ang II administration for four weeks to wild-type rodents resulted in significant increases in systolic blood pressure and LVH. Unexpectedly, FGF-23 circulating levels were increased by 1.5-1.7 fold in Ang II treated animals. In addition, Ang II treatment increased expression of FGF-23 message levels in bone, the predominant tissue for FGF-23 production, and induced expression of FGF-23 and its co-receptor α-Klotho in the heart, which normally does not express FGF-23 or α-Klotho in physiologically relevant levels. Hyp mice with elevated FGF-23 exhibited increased blood pressure and LVH at baseline. Ang II administration to Hyp mice resulted further increments in blood pressure and left ventricular hypertrophy, consistent with additive cardiovascular effects. These findings suggest that FGF-23 may participate in unexpected systemic and paracrine networks regulating hemodynamic and myocardial responses.

Abstract
Serum levels of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) markedly increase with renal impairment, with FGF23 levels correlating with the presence of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). FGF23 activates calcineurin/nuclear factor of activated T cell (NFAT) signaling and induces hypertrophy in murine cardiomyocytes. X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is characterized by high circulating levels of FGF23 but, in contrast to CKD, is associated with hypophosphatemia. The cardiac effects of high circulating levels of FGF23 in XLH are not well defined. Thus, studies were undertaken to define the cardiac phenotype in the mouse model of XLH (Hyp mice). Echocardiographic and histological analyses demonstrated that Hyp left ventricles (LVs) are smaller than those of wild-type mice. Messenger RNA expression of cardiac hypertrophy markers was not altered in the LV or right ventricle of Hyp mice. However, the Hyp LVs had increased expression of the NFAT target genes NFATc1 and RCAN1. To determine whether phosphate alone can induce markers of hypertrophy, differentiated C2C12 myocytes were treated with phosphate. Phosphate treatment increased expression of cardiac hypertrophy markers, supporting a primary role for phosphate in inducing LVH. Although previous studies showed that increased circulating FGF23 and phosphate levels are associated with LVH, our results demonstrated that in XLH, high circulating levels of FGF23 in the setting of hypophosphatemia do not induce cardiac hypertrophy.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In chronic kidney disease (CKD), multiple factors contribute to the development of cardiac hypertrophy by directly targeting the heart or indirectly by inducing systemic changes such as hypertension, anemia, and inflammation. Furthermore, disturbances in phosphate metabolism have been identified as nonclassical risk factors for cardiovascular mortality in these patients. With declining kidney function, the physiologic regulators of phosphate homeostasis undergo changes in their activity as well as their circulating levels, thus potentially contributing to cardiac hypertrophy once they are out of balance. Recently, two of these phosphate regulators, fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and Klotho, have been shown to affect cardiac remodeling, thereby unveiling a novel pathomechanism of cardiac hypertrophy in CKD. Here we discuss the potential direct versus indirect effects of FGF23 and the soluble form of Klotho on the heart, and their crosstalk in the regulation of cardiac hypertrophy. RECENT FINDINGS In models of CKD, FGF23 can directly target cardiac myocytes via FGF receptor 4 and induce cardiac hypertrophy in a blood pressure-independent manner. Soluble Klotho may directly target the heart via an unknown receptor thereby protecting the myocardium from pathologic stress stimuli that are associated with CKD, such as uremic toxins or FGF23. SUMMARY Elevated serum levels of FGF23 and reduced serum levels of soluble Klotho contribute to uremic cardiomyopathy in a synergistic manner.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review examines the role of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) in mineral metabolism, innate immunity and adverse cardiovascular outcomes. RECENT FINDINGS FGF-23, produced by osteocytes in bone, activates FGFR/α-Klotho (α-Kl) complexes in the kidney. The resulting bone-kidney axis coordinates renal phosphate reabsorption with bone mineralization, and creates a counter-regulatory feedback loop to prevent vitamin D toxicity. FGF-23 acts to counter-regulate the effects of vitamin D on innate immunity and cardiovascular responses. FGF-23 is ectopically expressed along with α-Kl in activated macrophages, creating a proinflammatory paracrine signaling pathway that counters the antiinflammatory actions of vitamin D. FGF-23 also inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 expression and increases sodium reabsorption in the kidney, leading to hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy. Finally, FGF-23 is purported to cause adverse cardiac and impair neutrophil responses through activation of FGFRs in the absence of α-Kl. Although secreted forms of α-Kl have FGF-23 independent effects, the possibility of α-Kl independent effects of FGF-23 is controversial and requires additional experimental validation. SUMMARY FGF-23 participates in a bone-kidney axis regulating mineral homeostasis, proinflammatory paracrine macrophage signaling pathways, and in a bone-cardio-renal axis regulating hemodynamics that counteract the effects of vitamin D.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) is a mainly osteocytic hormone which increases renal phosphate excretion and reduces calcitriol synthesis. These renal actions are mediated via alpha-klotho as the obligate co-receptor. Beyond these canonical "mineral metabolism" actions, FGF23 has been identified as an independent marker for cardiovascular risk in various patient populations. Previous research has linked elevated FGF23 predominantly to left-ventricular dysfunction and consecutive morbidity and mortality. Moreover, some experimental data suggest FGF23 as a direct and causal stimulator for cardiac hypertrophy via specific myocardial FGF23-receptor activation, independent from alpha-klotho. This hypothesis offers fascinating prospects in terms of therapeutic interventions, specifically in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in whom the FGF23 system is strongly stimulated and in whom left-ventricular dysfunction is a major disease burden. However, novel data challenges the previous stand-alone hypothesis about a one-way road which guides unidirectionally skeletal FGF23 toward cardiotoxic effects. In fact, recent data point toward local myocardial production and release of FGF23 in cases where (acute) myocardial damage occurs. The effects of this local production and the physiological meaning are under current examination. Moreover, epidemiologic studies suggest that high FGF-23 may follow, rather than induce, myocardial disease in certain conditions. In summary, while FGF23 is an interesting link between mineral metabolism and cardiac function underlining the meaning of the bone-heart axis, more research is needed before therapeutic interventions may be considered.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 23 is a phosphaturic hormone whose physiologic actions on target tissues are mediated by FGF receptors (FGFR) and klotho, which functions as a co-receptor that increases the binding affinity of FGF23 for FGFRs. By stimulating FGFR/klotho complexes in the kidney and parathyroid gland, FGF23 reduces renal phosphate uptake and secretion of parathyroid hormone, respectively, thereby acting as a key regulator of phosphate metabolism. Recently, it has been shown that FGF23 can also target cell types that lack klotho. This unconventional signaling event occurs in an FGFR-dependent manner, but involves other downstream signaling pathways than in "classic" klotho-expressing target organs. It appears that klotho-independent signaling mechanisms are only activated in the presence of high FGF23 concentrations and result in pathologic cellular changes. Therefore, it has been postulated that massive elevations in circulating levels of FGF23, as found in patients with chronic kidney disease, contribute to associated pathologies by targeting cells and tissues that lack klotho. This includes the induction of cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, the elevation of inflammatory cytokine expression in the liver, and the inhibition of neutrophil recruitment. Here, we describe the signaling and cellular events that are caused by FGF23 in tissues lacking klotho, and we discuss FGF23's potential role as a hormone with widespread pathologic actions. Since the soluble form of klotho can function as a circulating co-receptor for FGF23, we also discuss the potential inhibitory effects of soluble klotho on FGF23-mediated signaling which might-at least partially-underlie the pleiotropic tissue-protective functions of klotho.

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
PURPOSE Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a hormone regulating phosphate metabolism. Excessive actions of FGF23 cause several types of FGF23-related hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia. Recently, it was reported that FGF23 levels were independently correlated with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). In addition, FGF23 was also shown to cause cardiac hypertrophy directly acting on cardiomyocytes. However, there is no study indicating the correlation between FGF23 and LVH in adult patients with FGF23-related hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia. Therefore, we examined the existence of LVH in these patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS We recruited consecutive 24 patients with FGF23-related hypophosphatemic diseases. Their serum intact FGF23 levels and the parameters associated with LVH, including left ventricular mass index (LVMI), relative wall thickness (RWT), Sokolow-Lyon voltage, and Cornell product, were measured. The correlations between FGF23 and these parameters were examined. RESULTS The participants did not show LVH on the whole. In addition, no significant correlation was observed by these examinations. CONCLUSION It seems unlikely that FGF23 levels are the apparent determinant of the cardiac mass in patients with FGF23-related hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As 1,25(OH)2D3 vitamin D3 induces fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) production and suppresses the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), its absence in vitamin-D-dependent rickets type I (VDDR-I) may have adverse health consequences. CASE DESCRIPTION An infant presented at age 8 months with hypocalcemia and rickets and very low 1,25(OH)2D3 levels. Genetic analysis confirmed VDRR-I, and calcitriol therapy was initiated. During periods of nonadherence to therapy, chemical measurements revealed detectable FGF-23 levels, with undetectable 1,25(OH)2D3, hypophosphatemia, low tubular reabsorption of phosphate, hypocalcemia, and very elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. These changes, in addition to elevated RAAS levels, normalized during calcitriol therapy despite elevated FGF-23 levels. At age 12 years, all rachitic manifestations were absent, and bone mineral density (BMD) and the echocardiogram were normal. CONCLUSIONS Whereas 1,25(OH)2D3 is not indispensable for FGF-23 production, PTH in the absence of vitamin D may maintain FGF-23 secretion despite hypocalcemia. Normalization of urinary phosphate losses despite elevated FGF-23 during calcitriol-mediated suppression of secondary hyperparathyroidism points to a cardinal role of PTH as a cause of the phosphaturia in VDRR-I. Normalization of RAAS by calcitriol may conceivably prevent adverse cardiovascular outcomes.

Abstract
Autosomal recessive hypophosphatemic rickets (ARHR) is a heritable disorder characterized by hypophosphatemia, osteomalacia, and poor bone development. ARHR results from inactivating mutations in the DMP1 gene with the human phenotype being recapitulated in the Dmp1 null mouse model which displays elevated plasma fibroblast growth factor 23. While the bone phenotype has been well-characterized, it is not known what effects ARHR may also have on skeletal, cardiac, or vascular smooth muscle function, which is critical to understand in order to treat patients suffering from this condition. In this study, the extensor digitorum longus (EDL-fast-twitch muscle), soleus (SOL–slow-twitch muscle), heart, and aorta were removed from Dmp1 null mice and ex-vivo functional tests were simultaneously performed in collaboration by three different laboratories. Dmp1 null EDL and SOL muscles produced less force than wildtype muscles after normalization for physiological cross sectional area of the muscles. Both EDL and SOL muscles from Dmp1 null mice also produced less force after the addition of caffeine (which releases calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum) which may indicate problems in excitation contraction coupling in these mice. While the body weights of the Dmp1 null were smaller than wildtype, the heart weight to body weight ratio was higher. However, there were no differences in pathological hypertrophic gene expression compared to wildtype and maximal force of contraction was not different indicating that there may not be cardiac pathology under the tested conditions. We did observe a decrease in the rate of force development generated by cardiac muscle in the Dmp1 null which may be related to some of the deficits observed in skeletal muscle. There were no differences observed in aortic contractions induced by PGF2α or 5-HT or in endothelium-mediated acetylcholine-induced relaxations or endothelium-independent sodium nitroprusside-induced relaxations. In summary, these results indicate that there are deficiencies in both fast twitch and slow twitch muscle fiber type contractions in this model of ARHR, while there was less of a phenotype observed in cardiac muscle, and no differences observed in aortic function. These results may help explain skeletal muscle weakness reported by some patients with osteomalacia and need to be further investigated.

Abstract
There is a strong association between elevated circulating fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) levels and adverse outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) of all stages. Initially discovered as a regulator of phosphate and vitamin D homeostasis, FGF23 has now been implicated in several pathophysiological mechanisms that may negatively impact the cardiovascular and renal systems. FGF23 is purported to have direct (off-target) effects in the myocardium, as well as canonical effects on FGF receptor/α-klotho receptor complexes in the kidney to activate the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, modulate soluble α-klotho levels, and increase sodium retention, to cause left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Conversely, FGF23 could be an innocent bystander produced in response to chronic inflammation or other processes associated with CKD that cause LVH and adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Further exploration of these complex mechanisms is needed before modulation of FGF23 can become a legitimate clinical target in CKD.

Abstract
Introduction Several scoring systems have been developed to predict postoperative mortality and complications in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. However, these computer-based calculations are time- and cost-intensive. A simple but highly predictive test for postoperative risk would be of clinical benefit with respect to increasingly scarce hospital resources. We therefore assessed the predictive power of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) measurement compared with an established scoring system. Methods We conducted a prospective interdisciplinary observational study at the Saarland University Medical Centre that included 859 patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery between January 2010 and March 2011 with a median follow-up after discharge of 822 days. We compared a single preoperative measurement of FGF23 as a prognostic tool with the 18 parameters comprising EuroSCORE II with respect to postoperative mortality, acute kidney injury, non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia, clinical course and long-term outcome. Results Preoperative FGF23 levels were highly predictive of postoperative outcome and complications. The predictive value of FGF23 for mortality in the receiver operating characteristic curve was greater than the EuroSCORE II (area under the curve: 0.800 versus 0.725). Moreover, preoperative FGF23 independently predicted postoperative acute kidney injury and non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia comparably to the EuroSCORE II. Finally, FGF23 was found to be an independent predictor of clinical course parameters, including duration of surgery, ventilation time and length of stay. Conclusions In patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery, a simple preoperative FGF23 measurement is a powerful indicator of surgical mortality, postoperative complications and long-term outcome. Its utility compares to the widely used EuroSCORE II.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone regulating renal phosphate reabsorption and vitamin D synthesis in renal proximal tubules. Here, we show that FGF23 directly regulates the membrane abundance of the Na(+):Cl(-) co-transporter NCC in distal renal tubules by a signaling mechanism involving the FGF receptor/αKlotho complex, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), serum/glucocorticoid-regulated kinase 1 (SGK1), and with-no lysine kinase-4 (WNK4). Renal sodium (Na(+)) reabsorption and distal tubular membrane expression of NCC are reduced in mouse models of Fgf23 and αKlotho deficiency. Conversely, gain of FGF23 function by injection of wild-type mice with recombinant FGF23 or by elevated circulating levels of endogenous Fgf23 in Hyp mice increases distal tubular Na(+) uptake and membrane abundance of NCC, leading to volume expansion, hypertension, and heart hypertrophy in a αKlotho and dietary Na(+)-dependent fashion. The NCC inhibitor chlorothiazide abrogates FGF23-induced volume expansion and heart hypertrophy. Our findings suggest that FGF23 is a key regulator of renal Na(+) reabsorption and plasma volume, and may explain the association of FGF23 with cardiovascular risk in chronic kidney disease patients.

Abstract
There are emerging data that the skeleton is connected to systemic biological functions through the release of two osteoblast-/osteocyte-derived hormones, fibroblastic growth factor 23 (FGF23) and undercarboxylated osteocalcin (Ocn). FGF23 is important in the regulation of phosphate and vitamin D metabolism, whereas Ocn participates in endocrine networks, coordinating bone and fat mass, energy metabolism, and sex hormone production. Bone remodeling and mineralization per se, along with the hormones leptin, insulin, glucocorticoids, PTH, and 1,25(OH)2D, regulate the release of FGF23 and Ocn, leading to complex cross-talk and coordination between endocrine networks previously thought to be distinct. These pathways are particularly important in chronic kidney disease, in which both FGF23 and Ocn are increased. Although these hormones initially serve an adaptive role, with progressive loss of renal function they show maladaptive effects, particularly on the cardiovascular system, through multiple mechanisms, including possible cross-talk with the renin angiotensin system. The complex interconnections between the various endocrine networks in chronic kidney disease may account for the difficulty in treating the uremic state.

Abstract
Elevations of circulating Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) are associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes and progression of renal failure in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Efforts to identify gene products whose transcription is directly regulated by FGF23 stimulation of fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR)/α-Klotho complexes in the kidney is confounded by both systemic alterations in calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D metabolism and intrinsic alterations caused by the underlying renal pathology in CKD. To identify FGF23 responsive genes in the kidney that might explain the association between FGF23 and adverse outcomes in CKD, we performed comparative genome wide analysis of gene expression profiles in the kidney of the Collagen 4 alpha 3 null mice (Col4a3−/−) model of progressive kidney disease with kidney expression profiles of Hypophosphatemic (Hyp) and FGF23 transgenic mouse models of elevated FGF23. The different complement of potentially confounding factors in these models allowed us to identify genes that are directly targeted by FGF23. This analysis found that α-Klotho, an anti-aging hormone and FGF23 co-receptor, was decreased by FGF23. We also identified additional FGF23-responsive transcripts and activation of networks associated with renal damage and chronic inflammation, including lipocalin 2 (Lcn2), transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) signaling pathways. Finally, we found that FGF23 suppresses angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) expression in the kidney, thereby providing a pathway for FGF23 regulation of the renin-angiotensin system. These gene products provide a possible mechanistic links between elevated FGF23 and pathways responsible for renal failure progression and cardiovascular diseases.
