Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Renoprotective actions of exogenous klotho protein supplementation were examined in adriamycin nephropethy, nephrosclerosis models.In adrimaycin nephropathy, exogenous klotho protein supplementation inhibits Wnt signaling to reduce renal angiotensin II concentration, blood pressure and proteinuria. In addition, klotho protein suppressed TGFβ signaling to decline epithelial-mesenchymal transition and renal fibrosis. In early phase of nephrosclerosis model, klotho protein decreased renal angiotensin II concentration, blood pressure and medullary fibrosis. Klotho protein also inhibited Akt-mTOR pathway to ameliorate renal hypertrophy. In addutuin, klotho protein interacted with parathyroid hormone (PTH) receptor to inhibit its binding to PTH itself. FGF23 increased renal klotho expression, serum and urinary klotho levels. These data suggest that FGF23 transduces its signal to reduce vitamin D activation via klotho.
