Title: Secreted Klotho and FGF23 in chronic kidney disease Stage 1 to 5: a sequence suggested from a cross-sectional study. Author: Pavik I, Jaeger P, Ebner L, Wagner CA, Petzold K, Spichtig D, Poster D, Wüthrich RP, Russmann S, Serra AL. Journal: Nephrol Dial Transplant; 2013 Feb; 28(2):352-9. PubMed ID: 23129826. Abstract: BACKGROUND: Klotho and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) are key regulators of mineral metabolism in renal insufficiency. FGF23 levels have been shown to increase early in chronic kidney disease (CKD); however, the corresponding soluble Klotho levels at the different CKD stages are not known. METHODS: Soluble Klotho, FGF23, parathyroid hormone (PTH), 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D(3) (1,25D) and other parameters of mineral metabolism were measured in an observational cross-sectional study in 87 patients. Locally weighted scatter plot smoothing function of these parameters were plotted versus estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) to illustrate the pattern of the relationship. Linear and non-linear regression analyses were performed to estimate changes in mineral metabolism parameters per 1mL/min/1.73 m(2) decline. RESULTS: In CKD 1-5, Klotho and 1,25D linearly decreased, whereas both FGF23 and PTH showed a baseline at early CKD stages and then a curvilinear increase. Crude mean Klotho level declined by 4.8 pg/mL (95% CI 3.5-6.2 pg/mL, P < 0.0001) and 1,25D levels by 0.30 ng/L (95% CI 0.18-0.41 ng/L, P < 0.0001) as GFR declined by 1 mL/min/1.73 m(2). After adjustment for age, gender, serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and concomitant medications (calcium, supplemental vitamin D and calcitriol), we estimated that the mean Klotho change was 3.2 pg/mL (95% CI 1.2-5.2 pg/mL, P = 0.0019) for each 1 mL/min/1.73 m(2) GFR change. FGF23 departed from the baseline at an eGFR of 47 mL/min/1.73 m(2) (95% CI 39-56 mL/min/1.73 m(2)), whereas PTH departed at an eGFR of 34 mL/min/1.73 m(2) (95% CI 19-50 mL/min/1.73 m(2)). CONCLUSIONS: Soluble Klotho and 1,25D levels decrease and FGF23 levels increase at early CKD stages, whereas PTH levels increase at more advanced CKD stages.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
