Basic/Clinical Science Session
Novel Regulators and Functions in Mineral Metabolism
October 23, 2026 | 02:00 PM - 04:00 PM
Location: Room 405, Convention Center
Session Description
CKD-MBD pathogenesis is poorly understood. This session covers recent discoveries about the regulation of phosphate metabolism and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) production, and their effects on CKD-MBD outcomes.
Learning Objective(s)
- Summarize new therapeutic strategies to slow CKD progression
- Discuss technical innovations for studying vascular calcifications
- Compare FGF-23 new functions with CKD outcomes
Learning Pathway(s)
- Bones‚ Stones‚ and Mineral Metabolism
