βKlotho is a membrane protein highly expressed in the liver, exocrine pancreas, and adipose tissue. We have previously shown thatβKlotho is essential for FGF15/19 dependent negative feedback of bile acid synthesis from cholesterol. In this study, we find a potential role of FGF15/19-βKlotho system in the secretion of lipase and other pancreatic enzymes. We furthermore identified and confirmed twoβKlotho-binding transporters in white adipose tissue. Along withβKlotho, these membrane transporters are present and active in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, suggesting a role ofβKlotho in the regulation of transporter activity in adipocytes.
