Recombinant Human FGF23 Protein, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: FGF23-4112H
• Product Overview: Human FGF23 full-length ORF (NP_065689.1, 1 a.a. - 251 a.a.) recombinant protein with GST tag at N-terminal.

Specification

• Description: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities and are involved in a variety of biological processes including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. The product of this gene inhibits renal tubular phosphate transport. This gene was identified by its mutations associated with autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR), an inherited phosphate wasting disorder. Abnormally high level expression of this gene was found in oncogenic hypophosphatemic osteomalacia (OHO), a phenotypically similar disease caused by abnormal phosphate metabolism. Mutations in this gene have also been shown to cause familial tumoral calcinosis with hyperphosphatemia. [provided by RefSeq

Q&As

What role does FGF23 play in chronic kidney disease?

FGF23 levels are elevated in chronic kidney disease, contributing to mineral imbalance.

How is FGF23 implicated in cardiovascular health?

High FGF23 levels are associated with increased cardiovascular risk.

How does FGF23 regulate phosphate and calcium homeostasis?

It decreases renal phosphate reabsorption and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D production.

Are there known genetic mutations that affect FGF23 production or activity?

Mutations in FGF23 or related proteins can lead to dysregulated phosphate metabolism.

What therapeutic strategies are being explored to modulate FGF23 levels?

Strategies include phosphate binders and FGF23 antibodies to manage elevated FGF23 levels.

In which tissues is FGF23 predominantly produced and secreted?

FGF23 is primarily produced in bone.

What is the primary function of FGF23 in the body?

FGF23 regulates phosphate and vitamin D metabolism.
