FGF23

FGF23 is an osteocyte-secreted hormone that reduces renal phosphate reabsorption and inhibits vitamin D activation via FGFR1/αKlotho; elevated 100-1000× in CKD → drives secondary hyperparathyroidism, LVH, and mortality; burosumab (anti-FGF23) treats XLH-related rickets.

Also known as: FGF23, fibroblast growth factor 23, FGF-23, phosphatonin, XLH phosphate regulator, CKD-MBD mediator, hypophosphatemia FGF23
