The ins and outs of phosphate homeostasis
Abstract

An apparently straightforward manipulation to treat this--restriction of dietary phosphate--has proven that phosphate homeostasis is more complicated than we currently understand. This Commentary describes recent findings on novel regulatory factors that contribute to phosphate homeostasis.
