产品介绍
Klotho is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the KL gene.This gene encodes a type-I membrane protein that is related to β-glucuronidases. Reduced production of this protein has been observed in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF), and this may be one of the factors underlying the degenerative processes (e.g., arteriosclerosis, osteoporosis, and skin atrophy) seen in CRF. Also, mutations within this protein have been associated with ageing, bone loss and alcohol consumption.Transgenic mice that overexpress Klotho live longer than wild-type mice.Klotho is a transmembrane protein that, in addition to other effects, provides some control over the sensitivity of the organism to insulin and appears to be involved in aging. Its discovery was documented in 1997 by Kuro-o et al.The name of the gene comes from Klotho or Clotho, one of the Moirai, or Fates, in Greek mythology.
