Does anyone know how to manipulate FGF23 level?

18 August 2015 1 10K Report

I would like to investigate molecular mechanisms of FGF23 signaling during kidney diseases, have anyone suggestion how can I manipulate FGF23 level in blood serum in specific cells etc? Should I use Crisper/Cas9 system or?
