To test the hypothesis that fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is directly regulated by energy intake,  in vivo  and  in vitro  experiments were conducted. Three groups of rats were fed diets with high (HC), normal (NC) and low (LC) caloric content that resulted in different energy intake.  In vitro , UMR106 cells were incubated in high (HG, 4.5 g/l) or low glucose (LG, 1 g/l) medium. Additional treatments included phosphorus (P), mannitol, rapamycin and everolimus. Intestinal absorption of P and plasma P concentrations were similar in the three groups of rats. As compared with NC, plasma FGF23 concentrations were increased in HC and decreased in the LC group. A significant correlation between energy intake and plasma FGF23 concentrations was observed.  In vitro , mRNA FGF23 was significantly higher in UMR106 cells cultured in HG than in LG. When exposed to high P, mRNA FGF23 increased but only when cells were cultured in HG. Cells incubated with HG and mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors expressed low mRNA FGF23, similar to the values obtained in LG. In conclusion, this study shows a direct regulation of FGF23 production by energy availability and demonstrates that the mTOR signaling pathway plays a central role in this regulatory system.
