Popis: | Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) is a phosphaturic factor causing increased renal phosphate excretion as well as suppression of 1,25 (OH)2-vitamin D3. Highly elevated FGF23 can promote development of rickets and osteomalacia. We and others previously reported that acute application of erythropoietin (EPO) stimulates FGF23 production. Considering that EPO is clinically used as chronic treatment against anemia, we used here the Tg6 mouse model that constitutively overexpresses human EPO in an oxygen-independent manner, to examine the consequences of long-term EPO therapy on mineral and bone metabolism. Six to eight weeks old female Tg6 mice showed elevated intact and C-terminal fragment of FGF23 but normal plasma levels of PTH, calcitriol, calcium and phosphate. Renal function showed moderate alterations with higher urea and creatinine clearance and mild albuminuria. Renal phosphate excretion was normal whereas mild hypercalciuria was found. Renal expression of the key proteins TRPV5 and calbindin D28k involved in active calcium reabsorption was reduced in Tg6 mice. Plasma levels of the bone turnover marker osteocalcin were comparable between groups. However, urinary excretion of deoxypyridinoline (DPD) was lower in Tg6 mice. MicroCT analysis showed reduced total, cortical, and trabecular bone mineral density in femora from Tg6 mice. Our data reveal that chronic elevation of EPO is associated with high FGF23 levels and disturbed mineral homeostasis resulting in reduced bone mineral density. These observations imply the need to study the impact of therapeutically applied EPO on bone mineralization in patients, especially those suffering from chronic kidney disease. |
