Biomaterials for modulating cellular responses of endogenous tendon stem/progenitor cells: A promising avenue for tendon regeneration

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review comprehensively summarizes emerging biomaterial‐based strategies and underlying mechanisms for modulating endogenous tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs). It offers the most recent insights into TSPC physiology and potential applications of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in tendons.

Renal and Extrarenal Actions of Klotho [PDF]

Seminars in Nephrology, 2013
Klotho is a single-pass transmembrane protein highly expressed in the kidney. Membrane Klotho protein acts as a co-receptor for fibroblast growth factor-23. Its extracellular domain is shed from the cell surface and functions as an endocrine substance that exerts multiple renal and extrarenal functions.

Association between serum cotinine and α-Klotho levels among adults: Findings from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2007–2016

Tobacco Induced Diseases, 2022
Introduction Serum cotinine is a sensitive and specific marker of tobacco smoke exposure. α-Klotho is an anti-ageing molecule, which plays an important role in several diseases.

Klotho, an anti-aging gene, acts as a tumor suppressor and inhibitor of IGF-1R signaling in diffuse large B cell lymphoma

Journal of Hematology & Oncology, 2017
Background Klotho, is a transmembrane protein, performs as a circulating hormone and upstream modulator of the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), and Wnt signaling pathways.

The relationship between serum klotho and cognitive performance in a nationally representative sample of US adults

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023
PurposeAging is the primary risk factor for cognitive decline. Serum klotho, as an anti-aging protein, may be involved in cognitive decline. Thus, we aim to explorer the correlation between serum klotho and cognitive performance among an older adult ...

Research progress on the role of inflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of epilepsy

Ibrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 44-58, Spring 2025.
In the central nervous system, activated immune cells lead to the overproduction of inflammatory mediators through the corresponding signal pathway. Under the stimulation of inflammatory factors, neuroinflammation ultimately occurs. Overexpression of inflammatory mediators and activated immunocytes plays an important role in the emergence and ...

Epigenetic Regulation in the Pathogenesis of Renal Inflammation: Insights and Therapeutic Potentials

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Renal inflammation is a common pathological process in various kidney diseases, often initiated by factors such as toxins, ischemia, or autoimmune reactions. This inflammatory response can result in structural damage and a rapid decline in renal function.

Novel functions of circulating Klotho [PDF]

Bone, 2017
A significant portion of the key biological functions of αKlotho (αKL) and its cognate ligand Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) have been revealed through the study of rare diseases of mineral metabolism. These findings have far reaching implications for common disorders such as chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD).

Association between serum α‐Klotho levels and severity of periodontitis in a representative U.S. population

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory disease, is linked to systemic conditions such as cardiovascular and kidney disease. Serum α‐Klotho, an anti‐aging protein with anti‐inflammatory properties, has been associated with systemic diseases, but its role in periodontitis is unclear.

Klotho is highly expressed in the chief sites of regulated potassium secretion, and it is stimulated by potassium intake

Scientific Reports
Klotho regulates many pathways in the aging process, but it remains unclear how it is physiologically regulated. Because Klotho is synthesized, cleaved, and released from the kidney; activates the chief urinary K+ secretion channel (ROMK) and stimulates ...
