Munc13 mediates klotho-inhibitable diacylglycerol-stimulated exocytotic insertion of pre-docked TRPC6 vesicles.

PLoS ONE, 2020
α-Klotho is a type 1 transmembrane protein that exhibits aging suppression function. The large amino-terminal extracellular domain of α-klotho is shed as soluble klotho (sKlotho) and functions as a circulating cardioprotective hormone.

The Saga of Endocrine FGFs

Cells, 2021
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are cell-signaling proteins with diverse functions in cell development, repair, and metabolism. The human FGF family consists of 22 structurally related members, which can be classified into three separate groups based on

Olink Proteomics Analysis Reveals Heterogeneous Responses to FcRn Blockade in Anti‐AChR Antibody‐Positive Myasthenia Gravis: FGF‐19 as a Novel Biomarker

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to systematically observe the clinical manifestations, immune cell subsets, and dynamic changes in serological indicators in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) before and after efgartigimod (EFG) treatment. Methods We analyzed the baseline data, laboratory parameters, and lymphocyte subset proportions in MG ...

A Simplified Three‐Tailed N‐Alkyl Phosphoramidate Lipid Platform Enables Inguinal Adipose‐Accumulated mRNA Delivery for Anti‐Obesity Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops an mRNA therapy encoding a long‐acting GLP‐1/FGF21 fusion protein. A three‐tailed ionizable lipid engineered three‐component lipid nanoparticle delivers the mRNA to inguinal adipose tissue. In obese mice, this targeted, dual‐hormone treatment potently reduces body weight, fat mass, presenting a localized strategy for metabolic ...

Klotho Protein Deficiency Leads to Overactivation of μ-Calpain [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2002
The klotho mouse is an animal model that prematurely shows phenotypes resembling human aging. Here we report that in homozygotes for the klotho mutation (kl(-/-)), alpha(II)-spectrin is highly cleaved, even before the occurrence of aging symptoms such as calcification and arteriosclerosis.
