Direct regulation of fibroblast growth factor 23 by energy intake through mTOR.

ABSTRACT: To test the hypothesis that fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is directly regulated by energy intake, in vivo and in vitro experiments were conducted. Three groups of rats were fed diets with high (HC), normal (NC) and low (LC) caloric content that resulted in different energy intake. In vitro, UMR106 cells were incubated in high (HG, 4.5?g/l) or low glucose (LG, 1?g/l) medium. Additional treatments included phosphorus (P), mannitol, rapamycin and everolimus. Intestinal absorption of P and plasma P concentrations were similar in the three groups of rats. As compared with NC, plasma FGF23 concentrations were increased in HC and decreased in the LC group. A significant correlation between energy intake and plasma FGF23 concentrations was observed. In vitro, mRNA FGF23 was significantly higher in UMR106 cells cultured in HG than in LG. When exposed to high P, mRNA FGF23 increased but only when cells were cultured in HG. Cells incubated with HG and mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors expressed low mRNA FGF23, similar to the values obtained in LG. In conclusion, this study shows a direct regulation of FGF23 production by energy availability and demonstrates that the mTOR signaling pathway plays a central role in this regulatory system.

Project description:Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-23 induces hypertrophy and calcium (Ca2+) dysregulation in cardiomyocytes, leading to cardiac arrhythmia and heart failure. However, knowledge regarding the effects of FGF-23 on cardiac fibrogenesis remains limited. This study investigated whether FGF-23 modulates cardiac fibroblast activity and explored its underlying mechanisms. We performed MTS analysis, 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine assay, and wound-healing assay in cultured human atrial fibroblasts without and with FGF-23 (1, 5 and 25 ng/mL for 48 h) to analyze cell proliferation and migration. We found that FGF-23 (25 ng/mL, but not 1 or 5 ng/mL) increased proliferative and migratory abilities of human atrial fibroblasts. Compared to control cells, FGF-23 (25 ng/mL)-treated fibroblasts had a significantly higher Ca2+ entry and intracellular inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) level (assessed by fura-2 ratiometric Ca2+ imaging and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). Western blot analysis showed that FGF-23 (25 ng/mL)-treated cardiac fibroblasts had higher expression levels of calcium release-activated calcium channel protein 1 (Orai1) and transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) 1 channel, but similar expression levels of α-smooth muscle actin, collagen type IA1, collagen type Ⅲ, stromal interaction molecule 1, TRPC 3, TRPC6 and phosphorylated-calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II when compared with control fibroblasts. In the presence of ethylene glycol tetra-acetic acid (a free Ca2+ chelator, 1 mM) or U73122 (an inhibitor of phospholipase C, 1 μM), control and FGF-23-treated fibroblasts exhibited similar proliferative and migratory abilities. Moreover, polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed that atrial fibroblasts abundantly expressed FGF receptor 1 but lacked expressions of FGF receptors 2-4. FGF-23 significantly increased the phosphorylation of FGF receptor 1. Treatment with PD166866 (an antagonist of FGF receptor 1, 1 μM) attenuated the effects of FGF-23 on cardiac fibroblast activity. In conclusion, FGF-23 may activate FGF receptor 1 and subsequently phospholipase C/IP3 signaling pathway, leading to an upregulation of Orai1 and/or TRPC1-mediated Ca2+ entry and thus enhancing human atrial fibroblast activity.
