Anti-FGF23 antibody produced in rabbit

Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) is a bone-derived hormone which is secreted by osteocytes and osteoblasts. It is part of the atypical FGF subfamily. The gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 12p13. Anti-FGF23 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total FGF23 protein.

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human FGF23.

Immunogen Range: 151-200

The FGF family plays a central role during prenatal development and postnatal growth and regeneration of a variety of tissues, by promoting cellular proliferation and differentiation. Fibroblast growth factor-23, -21 and -19 (FGF-23, FGF-21 and FGF-19) act as circulating hormones and require the participation of a Klotho protein as a co-receptor for their signaling. The signaling receptor for FGF-23, a Klotho-FGFR1 (IIIc) complex, is an essential regulator of the renal sodium phosphate co-transporter and key vitamin D-metabolizing enzymes cytochrome P450 family 27 subfamily B member 1 (CYP27B1) and cytochrome P450 family 24 subfamily A member 1 (CYP24A1). FGF-23 acts in the kidney to regulate phosphate homeostasis and vitamin D metabolism.
