Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a member of the fibroblast growth factor family encoded by the FGF23 gene and functions as a circulating endocrine hormone that regulates phosphate and vitamin D metabolism. FGF-23 Antibody Protein Microarray Validated FGF23/4169 recognizes FGF23, a key regulator of systemic phosphate homeostasis that acts primarily through signaling pathways involving the FGFR receptor family and the co-receptor Klotho.
FGF23 is primarily produced by osteocytes and osteoblasts within bone and is released into the circulation where it acts on the kidney to regulate phosphate excretion. Through its interaction with fibroblast growth factor receptors and the Klotho co-receptor complex, FGF23 decreases renal phosphate reabsorption by downregulating sodium-phosphate cotransporters in the proximal tubule. In addition, FGF23 suppresses production of active vitamin D by reducing expression of the enzyme CYP27B1 and stimulating CYP24A1, thereby decreasing intestinal phosphate absorption and maintaining phosphate balance.
In physiological conditions FGF23 helps maintain stable serum phosphate concentrations and prevents excessive phosphate accumulation. However, dysregulation of FGF23 signaling has been linked to multiple metabolic bone and kidney disorders. Elevated levels of FGF23 are associated with chronic kidney disease, where impaired renal phosphate excretion leads to compensatory increases in circulating FGF23. Abnormally increased FGF23 activity is also observed in tumor induced osteomalacia and certain hereditary disorders of phosphate metabolism such as autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets. In these conditions excessive FGF23 signaling results in renal phosphate wasting and impaired bone mineralization.
FGF23 antibody reagents detect Fibroblast growth factor 23, which is also referred to in the literature as phosphatonin because of its role in regulating phosphate metabolism. Measurement and detection of FGF23 expression are widely used in studies of bone biology, mineral metabolism, endocrine signaling, and kidney disease. Antibodies such as mouse monoclonal clone FGF23/4169 support research investigating FGF23 production, endocrine signaling pathways, and the molecular mechanisms underlying disorders of phosphate regulation.
Optimal dilution of the microarray validated FGF-23 antibody should be determined by the researcher.
A portion of amino acids 25-251 was used as the immunogen for the FGF-23 antibody.
