title: [Progress in the identification of intestinal Pi transport inhibitors].
abstract: In 2003, the NKF K/DOQI released new clinical practice guidelines for bone metabolism and disease in chronic kidney disease, respectively. Target level of phosphate and Ca x Pi products are set at relative low levels in the new guidelines. Prescription of a new phosphate binder, severamer hydrochloride, a widely recommended in this quideline. Other approaches that could prove fruitful include inhibition of intestinal and renal phosphate transporters. Inhibition of the sodium-dependent phosphate transporter by a small molecule would be a desirable method to control serum phosphate levels in patients with chronic renal disease or undergoning dialysis. In this review the progress in the identification of such an agent is discussed.
