Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) production is upregulated by iron deficiency and hypoxia. However, the influence of acute blood loss, and the resulting increases in circulating erythropoietin, on FGF23 production is unknown. Using wild-type C57BL/6 mice, we show that acute loss of 10% total blood volume leads to an increase in plasma C-terminal FGF23 (cFGF23) levels within 6 h, while plasma levels of intact FGF23, phosphate, calcium, parathyroid hormone, iron, and ferritin remain similar to control mice without acute blood loss. Volume resuscitation with PBS did not significantly alter these findings. The increase in plasma cFGF23 levels in bled animals was accompanied by increased plasma erythropoietin levels at 6 h. Administration of erythropoietin led to an acute increase in plasma cFGF23 levels similar to that observed in acute blood loss. Fgf23 mRNA expression was increased 20-fold in bone marrow, but not in bone, of bled vs. control mice, suggesting bone marrow as a key source of elevated plasma FGF23 levels following acute blood loss. To extend these findings to humans, we measured plasma cFGF23 levels in 131 critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit. In univariate and multivariate models, we found a positive association between number of red blood cell transfusions, an indirect indicator of acute blood loss, and plasma cFGF23 levels. We conclude that FGF23 production is rapidly increased after acute blood loss and that erythropoietin may be the mediator of this increase. Thus erythropoietin may represent a novel physiological regulator of FGF23 production.
