Oncogenic osteomalacia illustrating the effect of fibroblast growth factor 23 on phosphate homeostasis
نویسندگان
چکیده
In oncogenic osteomalacia (OOM), fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) induces renal phosphate wasting and inhibits the appropriate increase of calcitriol. A patient suffering from OOM is described. Serum calcium, phosphate, biointact parathyroid hormone and intact FGF23 as well as the calcitriol and 24,25-vitamin D levels were measured before and after tumour removal. The clinical approach to a patient with hypophosphataemia is discussed and the changes in mineral metabolism after removal of a FGF23-producing tumour are described.

FGF-23, vitamin D and calcification: the unholy triad.
Recent studies have changed the commonly held view that phosphate is mostly needed for normal skeletal growth and development. Extensive research in the last decade has identified numerous other essential dynamic functions for phosphate, ranging from signalling to energy metabolism. Abnormal phosphate homeostasis potentially affects functional activities of almost any organ system. Despite its ...
متن کاملTumor-induced Osteomalacia Caused by a Parotid Tumor
A 77-year-old man was suspected of having tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) because of hypophosphatemia (1.9 mg/dL) and elevated serum fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) level (186.9 pg/mL). We detected a tumor in his left parotid gland, and the FGF23 level in the left external jugular vein indicated that the tumor overproduced FGF23. After the removal of the tumor, the serum FGF23 level rapidl...
متن کاملFGF-23: More Than a Regulator of Renal Phosphate Handling?
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) is likely to be the most important regulator of phosphate homeostasis, which mediates its functions through FGF receptors and the coreceptor Klotho. Besides reducing expression of the sodium-phosphate cotransporters NPT2a and NPT2c in the proximal tubules, FGF-23 inhibits the renal 1α-hydroxylase and stimulates the 24-hydroxylase, and it appears to reduce pa...
متن کاملFibroblast growth factor 23: roles in health and disease.
A lthough phosphate is important in skeletal mineralization, energy metabolism, and multiple enzymatic processes, little has been understood about the regulation of phosphate in health and disease until recently. Genetic and acquired disorders of phosphate homeostasis have begun to reveal important mechanisms for the regulation of phosphate metabolism. Candidate phosphate-regulating hormones (“...
متن کاملIdentifying the culprit lesion in tumor induced hypophosphatemia, the solution of a clinical enigma
Tumor-induced osteomalacia is a rare acquired metabolic bone disorder characterized by isolated renal phosphate wasting due to abnormal tumor production of fibroblast growth factor 23. We report the case of a 59 year old woman referred to our department with a long history of progressive diffuse muscle weakness and pain, generalized bone pains and multiple insufficiency fractures of heels, ankl...
