    Figure 5. Immunolocalization of <t>FGF23,</t> MEPE, and osteopontin in the control and PTH-administered metaphyseal trabeculae. Panels (A–C,D–F,G–I) are immunodetection of FGF23, MEPE, and osteo- pontin, respectively. Panels (A,D,G) show the control metaphyses, while panels (B,E,H) and (C,F,I) are from PTH-administered trabeculae with regimens of 2 times or 4 times/day, respectively. FGF23 is observed mainly in osteocytes of control specimens (A), while FGF23 can be seen not only in osteocytes but also in osteoblasts after the PTH administration (arrows in B,C). MEPE is observable in osteocytes after the PTH treatment (E,F), while it is hardly detected in the control specimens (D). Note intense osteopontin-immunoreactive cement lines (arrows in H,I) in the PTH-administered specimens compared to the control counterparts (G). tb: trabecula. Bars (A–I): 30 µm.

    Potential mechanism by which IS may induce LVH via the FGF23-FGFR4 pathway. IS upregulates FGF23 mRNA via AhR and HIF1α. IS also increases GALNT3 gene expression, preventing furin-mediated degradation of intact FGF23. Increased FGF23 induces myocardial hypertrophy by FGFR4-dependent activation.
