| abstractText | In the setting of normal kidney function, iron deficiency is associated with increased FGF23 production and cleavage, altering circulating FGF23 levels. Our objective was to determine how chronic kidney disease (CKD) and dietary iron intake affect FGF23 production and metabolism in wild-type (WT) and hepcidin knockout (HKO) mice. For 8 wk, the mice were fed diets that contained adenine (to induce CKD) or no adenine (control group), with either low-iron (4 ppm) or standard-iron (335 ppm) concentrations. The low-iron diet induced iron deficiency anemia in both the WT and HKO mice. Among the WT mice, in both the control and CKD groups, a low-iron compared with a standard-iron diet increased bone Fgf23 mRNA expression, C-terminal FGF23 (cFGF23) levels, and FGF23 cleavage as manifested by a lower percentage intact FGF23 (iFGF23). Independent of iron status, CKD was associated with inhibition of FGF23 cleavage. Similar results were observed in the HKO control and CKD groups. Dietary iron content was more influential on FGF23 parameters than the presence or absence of hepcidin. In the CKD mice (WT and HKO, total n = 42), independent of the effects of serum phosphate, iron deficiency was associated with increased FGF23 production but also greater cleavage, whereas worse kidney function was associated with increased FGF23 production but decreased cleavage. Therefore, in both the WT and HKO mouse models, dietary iron content and CKD affected FGF23 production and metabolism. |
