Abstract excerpt
Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23), a hormone central to renal phosphate handling, is elevated in multiple hypophosphatemic disorders. Initial FGF23-dependent Erk1/2 activity in the kidney localizes to the distal convoluted tubule (DCT) with the co-receptor α-Klotho (KL), distinct from Npt2a in proximal tubules (PT). The Hyp mouse model of X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH) is characterized by...
