Furosemide stimulation of parathormone in humans: role of the calcium-sensing receptor and the renin-angiotensin system. [PDF]
Interactions between sodium and calcium regulating systems are poorly characterized but clinically important. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels are increased shortly after furosemide treatment by an unknown mechanism, and this effect is blunted by the ...

Skeletal muscle as a regulator of the longevity protein, Klotho [PDF]
Klotho is a powerful longevity protein that has been linked to the prevention of muscle atrophy, osteopenia, and cardiovascular disease. Similar anti-aging effects have also been ascribed to exercise and physical activity.

Association of α-klotho with subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in subjects with type 1 diabetes mellitus [PDF]
Background Compelling evidence suggests that the fbroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) / α-klotho axis is impaired in subjects with diabetes mellitus. We examined the relationship between parameters related to calcium/phosphate homeostasis, including FGF23 ...
