abstract：CONCLUSIONS:Klotho protein content decreases with increasing age, which weakens resistance to oxidative stress, resulting in induced cell death as well as modulating endolymph fluid homeostasis. Down-regulation of klotho also leads to down-regulation of TRPV5 and TRPV6, resulting in modified Ca(2+) homeostasis in the i...
