Background
Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), a member of the FGF superfamily, has emerged as an important metabolic regulator. FGF21 is produced in the liver, adipocytes and skeletal muscle and regulates glucose, energy and lipid metabolism. FGF21 is a stress-responsive hepatokine which is induced in the liver as a response to injury, regeneration, hepatocarcinogenesis and during kidney dysfunction. FGF21 is primarily metabolized in the kidney and renal secretion is the major route of FGF21 elimination. Its plasma levels increase according to the decline in renal function in patients with chronic and acute renal dysfunction.
