PHEX mimetic (SPR4-peptide) corrects and improves HYP and wild type mice energy-metabolism.

<h4>Context</h4>PHEX or DMP1 mutations cause hypophosphatemic-rickets and altered energy metabolism. PHEX binds to DMP1-ASARM-motif to form a complex with α5β3 integrin that suppresses FGF23 expression. ASARM-peptides increase FGF23 by disrupting the PHEX-DMP1-Integrin complex. We used a...
