Rat Klotho ELISA Kit

May have weak glycosidase activity towards glucuronylated steroids. However, it lacks essential active site Glu residues at positions 241 and 874, suggesting it may be inactive as a glycosidase in vivo. May be involved in the regulation of calcium and phosphorus homeostasis by inhibiting the synthesis of active vitamin D. Essential factor for the specific interaction between FGF23 and FGFR1.; The Klotho peptide generated by cleavage of the membrane-bound isoform may be an anti-aging circulating hormone which would extend life span by inhibiting insulin/IGF1 signaling.

5. Klotho gene delivery abolished the upregulation of endothelin-1 levels and the downregulation of ETB and Mn-SOD expression in kidneys of spontaneously hypertensive rats PMID: 24979306
6. Klotho attenuates high glucose-induced fibronectin expression and cell hypertrophy via the ERK1/2 and p38 kinase-dependent pathways. PMID: 24721634
7. Klotho protects the kidney against cisplatin nephrotoxicity by reduction of basolateral uptake of cisplatin by OCT2 and a direct anti-apoptotic effect independent of cisplatin uptake. PMID: 24304882
8. These results provide the first anatomical localization of klotho mRNA and protein in rat brain parenchyma and demonstrate that klotho levels vary during early postnatal development. PMID: 23838326
9. Silencing of brain klotho potentiated and expedited cold-induced elevation of blood pressure by upregulation of endothelin-1 and the subsequent activation of the sympathetic nervous system. PMID: 20086041
10. the therapeutic potential of soluble Klotho protein to treat age-related disorders in mice PMID: 23041151
11. These results suggest that the expression of Klotho is regulated by the balance between upregulation and downregulation of Wnt signaling. PMID: 22551380
12. The Klotho gene can attenuate the progression of hypertension and abolishes myocardial hypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis. PMID: 23225045
13. these studies provide novel evidence for Klotho as a key player in myelin biology, which may thus be a useful therapeutic target in efforts to protect brain myelin against age-dependent changes and promote repair in multiple sclerosis. PMID: 23365232
14. Aging-related kidney damage is associated with a decrease in klotho expression PMID: 20830528
15. Renal mRNA and protein expression of Klotho plays important an role in progression of hypertensive renal damage in spontaneously hypertensive rats. PMID: 21646815
16. Fosinopril up-regulates klotho mRNA in time-dependent manner, and inhibits the down-regulated expression of klotho gene induced by Ang II. PMID: 21038689
17. Fosinopril and losartan can exert protection against hypertensive renal damage through upregulating Klotho expression as well as reducing oxidative stress. PMID: 21311136
18. New insights into the pathology of age-related degeneration of dopaminergic neurons are possibly related to Klotho-mediated regulation of vitamin D. PMID: 21276773
19. Valsartan can improve the brain ultrastructure of spontaneously hypertensive rats by increasing the expression of Klotho. PMID: 20360647

22. AST-120 increases Klotho expression, and inhibited cell senescence in the kidney of CRF rats, probably by alleviating indoxyl sulfate overload on the kidney PMID: 19955715
23. klotho distribution & expression in rat models of insulin resistance; no significant differences between insulin resistant and control animals; conclude that decreased klotho expression is not a general feature of rodent models of insulin resistance PMID: 19756714
24. Klotho is post-translationally processed and there are regulatory mechanisms for its secretion in vivo PMID: 15135068
25. Insulin enhances KL shedding without increasing ADAM10 and ADAM17 mRNA and protein levels PMID: 18056631
