The association of circulating ferritin with serum concentrations of fibroblast growth factor-23 measured by three commercial assays

Abstract: The measurement of FGF-23 by both Immutopics assays is altered in the presence of low circulating concentrations of serum ferritin whereas with the Kainos intact assay this effect was not demonstrated. Serum ferritin should be measured when an elevated FGF-23 is obtained using the Immutopics C-terminal or intact FGF-23 assay to prevent misdiagnosis of the cause of this abnormality.

“…In boys, high testosterone secretion in infancy could partly explain increased hematopoiesis and higher consumption of iron. Serum iron concentrations may participate in the regulation of FGF23 metabolism [37,38,39], and low serum ferritin is associated with high C-terminal FGF23 concentration [40,41]. In our study, C-terminal FGF23 and hemoglobin showed no association.…”

“…In a study an important diurnal variation is detected in iFGF-23 so the use of cFGF-23 is thought to be more useful in clinical practice 52 . Also both immunotrophic assays are thought to be affected from ferritin levels but this situation does not occur in kainos iFGF-23 assay 53 . As a result of these data we think the use of both iFGF-23 assay and cFGF-23 assay together may be suitable.…”

“…The latter may also be an important confounder in this study. It has been postulated that iron may be an important regulator of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) [34,35]. Since FGF-23 may regulate PTH secretion [36], adjusting for the effects of iron and/or FGF-23 would enhance our study, particularly since the secretion of FGF-23 may be modified by diabetic status [37].…”
