The levels of [sz]-Klotho and
FGF receptor 1 (FGFR1) protein were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

In the kidney, FGF-23 binds to
FGF receptor in the proximal tubule in the presence of coreceptor klotho resulting an inhibition of proximal tubular phosphate reabsorption and a suppression of 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D synthesis [31].

A possible outcome improvement strategy for this and other studies might be the combined overexpression of the
FGF receptor and ligand as opposed to our study which only used overexpression of the FGFR1.

Moreover, FGF23 was shown to induce cardiomyocyte hypertrophy via PLC-[gamma] signaling rather than ERK signaling, which was dependent on
FGF receptor activation but independent of Klotho.
Altogether it is tempting to speculate that CNPY family members act as cochaperones of GRP94 with CNPY1 assisting
FGF receptor folding, CNPY2 LDL receptor maturation, and that pERp1/MZB1 may drive IgM polymerization by virtue of its assistance to or modulation of GRP94 function.
Altered
FGF receptor expression has been found in pituitary adenomas [48], and FGFR4 undergoes alternative transcription initiation in pituitary adenomas, giving rise to an oncogenic protein in pituitary adenomas of various subtypes.
