Regulation of FGF23 production in bone
The biologically active form of vitamin D regulates the concentration of phosphate in the bloodstream. Vitamin D deficiency results in the softening and weakening of bones, causing rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults. An understanding of the mechanism of regulation of expression would allow new therapies to be developed for diseases associated with abnormal phosphate metabolism.
Yamamoto and colleagues sought to investigate the regulation of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) expression during osteoblast development. FGF23 is a member of the family responsible for phosphate metabolism and has been identified as the factor responsible for hypophosphatemic rickets. Using a rat calvaria cell culture model, they found that vitamin D and inorganic phosphate synergistically increased......

MIF knockdown impairs glucose homeostasis
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a cytokine which affects carbohydrate metabolism and has been linked to obesity and insulin resistance. Serre-Beinier and colleagues have shown that MIF plays an active role in insulin secretion and glucose homeostasis for the first time, using MIF knockout mice. MIF deficiency affected body weight gain; mice had a lower body weight at birth, whilst after birth a higher body weight gain was observed compared to wild type mice, due to increased food intake. Older mice without the MIF gene had impaired glucose tolerance, with an age-dependent increase in fasting insulin levels being observed. This leads to an increase in glucose uptake which may explain the increased fat mass of older mice.
Whilst further work needs to be done to elucidate MIF&......
