Role of Klotho Protein in Neuropsychiatric Disorders: A Narrative Review
Neuropsychiatric disorders are comprised of diseases having both the neurological and psychiatric manifestations. The increasing burden of the disease on the population worldwide makes it necessary to adopt measures to decrease the prevalence. The Klotho is a single pass transmembrane protein that decreases with age, has been associated with various ...

Klotho protein in neurodegenerative disorders [PDF]
The Klotho protein is a recently discovered protein and its overexpression is associated with life extension. Klotho deficiency or silencing of the Klotho gene in mice leads to an accelerated aging and short life, whereas overexpression of Klotho in mice extends lifespan.

Klotho Protein Promotes Adipocyte Differentiation [PDF]
Mice with homozygous disruption of the klotho exhibit multiple age-related disorders and have barely detectable amounts of white adipose tissue. Although klotho expression in cultured adipocytes has been reported, little is known about its function in adipocytes.

Effects of klotho protein or klotho knockdown in porcine oocytes at different stages
SummaryKlotho is a protein that plays different functions in female fertility. We have previously reported that klotho protein supplementation during in vitro maturation improves porcine embryo development, while klotho knockout for somatic cell cloning completely blocks full-term pregnancy in vivo.

Can Soluble Klotho Protein Be a Potential Tumor Biomarker? [PDF]
To the Editor We read with great interest the article by Devaraj et al.1 According to the authors, soluble Klotho protein (sKL) appears to be an effective biological factor related to diabetes and chronic kidney disease. However, there is a paucity of data on sKL levels in patients with cancer.

Klotho is an age-extending, cognition-enhancing protein found to be down-regulated in aged mammals when age-related diseases start to appear. Low levels of Klotho occur in neurodegenerative diseases, kidney disease and many cancers.
