Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 and Exercise Capacity in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

Published by Elsevier Inc..

BACKGROUND: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy and decreased exercise capacity. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), a hormone involved in phosphate, vitamin D, and iron homeostasis, is linked to left ventricular hypertrophy and HF. We measured c-terminal FGF23 (cFGF23) and intact FGF23 (iFGF23) levels and examined their associations with exercise capacity in patients with HFpEF.

METHODS AND RESULTS: Using multivariable linear regression and linear mixed models, we studied the associations of cFGF23 and iFGF23 with baseline and mean weekly change over 24 weeks in peak oxygen consumption and 6-minute walk distance in individuals enrolled in the Phosphodiesterase-5 Inhibition to Improve Clinical Status and Exercise Capacity in HFpEF trial. Our study population included 172 individuals with available plasma for cFGF23 and iFGF23 measurements. Median (25th-75th percentile) baseline cFGF23 and iFGF23 levels were 208.7 RU/mL (132.1-379.5 RU/mL) and 90.3 pg/mL (68.6-128.5 pg/mL), respectively. After adjustment for cardiovascular disease and hematologic and kidney parameters, higher cFGF23 was independently associated with a lower peak oxygen consumption at baseline. Higher iFGF23 was independently associated with shorter 6-minute walk distance at baseline. No significant associations were appreciated with the longitudinal outcomes.

CONCLUSIONS: In patients with HFpEF, higher FGF23 levels are independently associated with decreased exercise capacity at baseline.
