Klotho Protein: A Multifaceted Guardian of Healthy Aging and Its Therapeutic Potential

The Klotho protein, encoded by the KL gene, has garnered significant attention as a pivotal biomolecule in the field of aging research. Its expression levels are closely correlated with both lifespan and overall health status, exerting influence over critical physiological processes such as metabolic homeostasis, oxidative stress response, and...

The Impact of Klotho in Cancer: From Development and Progression to Therapeutic Potential

Klotho, initially identified as an anti-aging gene, has been shown to play significant roles in cancer biology. Alongside α-Klotho, the β-Klotho and γ-Klotho isoforms have also been studied; these studies showed that Klotho functions as a potential tumor suppressor in many different cancers by inhibiting cancer cell proliferation, inducing...

Klotho overexpression protects human cortical neurons from β-amyloid induced neuronal toxicity

Klotho, a well-known aging suppressor protein, has been implicated in neuroprotection and the regulation of neuronal senescence. While previous studies have demonstrated its anti-aging properties in human brain organoids, its potential to mitigate neurodegenerative processes triggered by β-amyloid remains underexplored. In this study, we utilised... Read more

Anti-aging protein α-Klotho is potential for reducing comorbidity risk of cardiometabolic diseases in vulnerable populations and enhancing long-term prognosis

This study investigated the impact of anti-aging protein α-Klotho on cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) among middle-aged and elderly population. A total of 11,198 participants aged 40-79 years were included in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning 2007-2016. Serum α-Klotho levels were quantified via enzyme-linked... Read more

Klotho: a humeral mediator in CSF and plasma that influences longevity and susceptibility to multiple complex disorders, including depression

Klotho is a hormone secreted into human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), plasma and urine that promotes longevity and influences the onset of several premature senescent phenotypes in mice and humans, including atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease, stroke and osteoporosis. Preliminary studies also suggest that Klotho possesses tumor suppressor... Read more

Klotho in pregnancy and intrauterine development-potential clinical implications: a review from the European Renal Association CKD-MBD Working Group

Intrauterine development is crucial for life-long health; therefore, elucidation of its key regulators is of interest for their potential prognostic and therapeutic implications. Originally described as a membrane-bound anti-aging protein, Klotho has evolved as a regulator of numerous functions in different organ systems. Circulating Klotho is... Read more

Neuroprotective Role of Klotho on Dementia

Klotho, a gene found on chromosome 13q12, is involved in a variety of processes and signaling pathways in the human body related to vitamin D metabolism; cardiovascular, renal, musculoskeletal, and skin diseases; and cancer biology. However, more importantly, it has been linked to beneficial effects related to anti-aging. The levels of soluble... Read more
