Abstract

Phosphate and bone metabolism are not altered in FGF23 and Klotho null fetuses; FGF23 appears to play no role until after birth. However, in such studies, all fetuses received a normal phosphate load because maternal serum phosphate was normal. We studied whether maternal dietary phosphate loading alters fetal serum phosphate and invokes a fetal FGF23 or PTH response.
