OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The main aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between measures of adiposity and FGF-23 in a sample of patients with CKD stages 3-4. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: This study was a clinic-based cross-sectional investigation of 71 CKD patients who underwent body composition and anthropometric assessments as part of the relationship of insulin sensitivity in kidney disease and vascular health (RISKD) study. Dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scans were used to measure total fat mass and body mass index (BMI) was computed using baseline weight and height measurements. Biomarkers included serum FGF-23 (C-terminal), serum leptin, high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), serum triglycerides, high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and total cholesterol. Creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was computed using the CKD-EPI equation. Multiple linear regression with robust standard errors was used to investigate the relationship between FGF2-3 and measures of adiposity (BMI, total fat mass and serum leptin). Log-transformation was performed for variables (FGF-23, hsCRP and serum lipids) with considerable skewness. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The median age of the study participants was 68 (IQR: 60, 73) years; 26% were female and 23% were African-American. Median eGFR was 46.9 ml/min/1.73m2 (IQR: 41.9, 52.8), median BMI was 31 kg/m2 (IQR: 27, 35). Log FGF-23 had a significant positive correlation with BMI (r = 0.27, p = 0.02), total fat mass (r = 0.30, p = 0.01) and serum leptin (r = 0.43, p 〈 0.0001). After full adjustment for age, sex, race, eGFR, log hsCRP, log HDL and log triglycerides, a 50% increase in FGF-23 was associated with a 1 kg/m2 [95% CI: 0.1, 1.9; p = 0.03] increase in BMI, a 2.5 kg [95% CI: 0.2, 4.8; p = 0.03] increase in total fat mass and a 6.7 ng/mL [95% CI: 1.0, 12.4; p = 0.02] increase in serum leptin. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: In this sample of patients with moderate-to-severe CKD, we found a significant independent association between higher FGF-23 levels and higher adiposity (BMI, total fat mass and the pro-atherogenic adipocytokine, leptin). The underlying causes and the implications of these associations − particularly in bone and vascular health − need to be further investigated.
