Neuroprotective roles of klotho: Molecular pathways and therapeutic implications for cognitive health in neurological and psychiatric diseases

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Klotho, a pleiotropic protein initially identified for its role in kidney function, has garnered significant attention for its neuroprotective properties in various neurodegenerative diseases. It regulates key processes, such as oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, synaptic plasticity and myelination, all crucial for maintaining neuronal ...

Dual effect of vitamin D3 on breast cancer-associated fibroblasts

BMC Cancer
Background Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play an important role in the tumor microenvironment. Despite the well-known in vitro antitumoral effect of vitamin D3 (VD3), its impact on breast CAFs is almost unknown.

Clinical Insights Into Hypercalcemia of Malignancy in Childhood

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 73, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Hypercalcemia of malignancy (HCM) is a rare but life‐threatening metabolic emergency in children that occurs in less than 1% of pediatric cancer cases, with a reported incidence ranging from 0.4% to 1.0% across different studies. While it is observed in 10%–20% of adult malignancies, pediatric HCM remains relatively uncommon.

Vitamin D Pretreatment to Prevent the Risk of Postoperative Hypocalcemic Complications After Parathyroidectomy in Primary Hyperparathyroidism: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Head &Neck, Volume 48, Issue 7, Page 1865-1875, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Parathyroidectomy is the treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism, yet postoperative hypocalcemia and hungry bone syndrome remain common. Vitamin D deficiency has been suggested as a modifiable risk factor, but evidence supporting preoperative supplementation is inconsistent.

Calcitriol inhibits ROS-NLRP3-IL-1β signaling axis via activation of Nrf2-antioxidant signaling in hyperosmotic stress stimulated human corneal epithelial cells

Redox Biology, 2019
Purpose: The activation of ROS-NLRP3-IL-1β signaling axis induced by hyperosmotic stress (HS) has been recognized as a key priming stage of epithelial inflammation in dry eye pathogenesis.

Upacicalcet: A Novel Intravenous Calcimimetic Agent for Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis With Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 309-322, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication in patients receiving maintenance dialysis, driven by calcium and phosphate metabolism disturbances. Calcimimetics are central to the management of SHPT by enhancing calcium‐sensing receptor sensitivity and reducing parathyroid hormone secretion.
