Background Frailty is common and not limited to older age group. Serum α-Klotho works as a biomarker of anti-aging effect. However, there is limited research about the relationship between them in middle-aged and older people and controversy still exists.

Klotho and Renal Fibrosis [PDF]
Klotho is a newly discovered protein with pleotropic effects and have affected different fields of renal medicine from translational research to clinical nephrology. Here we want to summarize some new scopes in the field of renal fibrosis and Klotho with this hope that in future it could be implemented as a new therapeutic strategy to combat the renal ...

Gla-rich protein (GRP) as an early and novel marker of vascular calcification and kidney dysfunction in diabetic patients with CKD: a pilot cross-sectional study [PDF]
Vascular calcification (VC) is one of the strongest predictors of cardiovascular risk in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. New diagnostic/prognostic tools are required for early detection of VC allowing interventional strategies.

Soluble α-Klotho Serum Levels in Chronic Kidney Disease
Transmembrane α-Klotho (TM-Klotho), expressed in renal tubules, is a cofactor for FGF23-receptor. Circulating soluble-α-Klotho (s-Klotho) results from TM-Klotho shedding and acts on Phosphate (P) and Calcium (Ca) tubular transport.

The klotho gene encodes a single-pass transmembrane protein that forms a complex with multiple fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptors and functions as an obligatory co-receptor for FGF23, a bone-derived hormone that induces negative phosphate balance.

Autoimmune hyperphosphatemic tumoral calcinosis in a patient with FGF23 autoantibodies [PDF]
Hyperphosphatemic familial tumoral calcinosis (HFTC)/hyperostosis-hyperphosphatemia syndrome (HHS) is an autosomal recessive disorder of ectopic calcification due to deficiency of or resistance to intact fibroblast growth factor 23 (iFGF23). Inactivating

Objective Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is characterized by the abnormal deposition of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL), which contributes to podocyte damage. Klotho, an aging suppressor that plays a critical role in protecting podocytes in DKD,
