[PMID: 37728807 DOI: 10.1007/s11255-023-03792-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/21/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although Klotho-related research has seen a significant upsurge, the field lacks comprehensive analytical representation and in-depth exploration of pertinent areas such as prevailing research trends and key focus areas. METHOD This review presents a bibliometric analysis of literature data gathered from the Web of Science Core Collection databases from January 1, 2000, to April 30, 2023. Parameters such as co-authorship, co-citation, co-occurrence, and the emergence of publications, countries, categories, references, and keywords were scrutinized predominantly using Citespace software. RESULTS Our investigation amassed a total of 3548 papers, with the United States leading in the quantity of publications (1175, accounting for 33.12%), followed by China (867, representing 24.44%), and Japan (439, accounting for 12.37%). While the United States is preeminent in the overall volume of publications, Scotland holds prominence in terms of centrality. Out of a total of 96 subject categories, urology and nephrology (573), and endocrinology and metabolism (542) were the two leading domains of Klotho-related publications. The 2011 paper titled "FGF23 induces left ventricular hypertrophy" by Faul C et al. holds the distinction of being the most frequently cited. The keywords "fibroblast growth factor 23," "phosphate homeostasis," and "functional variants" demonstrated the highest intensity, underscoring the potential of these research areas. CONCLUSION As the volume of literature grows, the role of Klotho in disease management and its applicability as a marker in disease progression warrant vigilant tracking and study.

Abstract
Klotho is a recently discovered protein that has positive effects on all systems of the body, for example, regulating calcium and phosphorus metabolism, protecting nerves, delaying aging and so on. Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are a group of polypeptides that function throughout the body by binding with cell surface FGF receptors (FGFRs). Endocrine FGFs require Klotho as a co-receptor for FGFRs. There is increasing evidence that Klotho participates in calcium and phosphorus regulation and metabolic regulation via the FGF-Klotho axis. Moreover, soluble Klotho can function as a separate hormone to regulate homeostasis on various ion channels and carrier channels on the cell surface. This review mainly explains the molecular basis of the membrane signaling mechanism of Klotho.

Abstract
Osteoporosis and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are both degenerative diseases. Osteoporosis often proceeds cognitive deficits, and multiple studies have revealed common triggers that lead to energy deficits in brain and bone. Risk factors for osteoporosis and AD, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, aging, chemotherapy, vitamin deficiency, alcohol abuse, and apolipoprotein Eε4 and/or Il-6 gene variants, reduce cellular glucose uptake, and protective factors, such as estrogen, insulin, exercise, mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitors, hydrogen sulfide, and most phytochemicals, increase uptake. Glucose uptake is a fine-tuned process that depends on an abundance of glucose transporters (Gluts) on the cell surface. Gluts are stored in vesicles under the plasma membrane, and protective factors cause these vesicles to fuse with the membrane, resulting in presentation of Gluts on the cell surface. This translocation depends mainly on AKT kinase signaling and can be affected by a range of factors. Reduced AKT kinase signaling results in intracellular glucose deprivation, which causes endoplasmic reticulum stress and iron depletion, leading to activation of HIF-1α, the transcription factor necessary for higher Glut expression. The link between diseases and aging is a topic of growing interest. Here, we show that diseases that affect the same biochemical pathways tend to co-occur, which may explain why osteoporosis and/or diabetes are often associated with AD.

Abstract
The protein Klotho can significantly delay aging, so it has attracted widespread attention. Abnormal downregulation of Klotho has been detected in several aging-related diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, kidney injury, cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), vascular disease, muscular dystrophy and diabetes. Conversely, many exogenous and endogenous factors, several drugs, lifestyle changes and genetic manipulations were reported to exert therapeutic effects through increasing Klotho expression. In recent years, Klotho has been identified as a potential autophagy regulator. How Klotho may contribute to reversing the effects of aging and disease became clearer when it was linked to autophagy, the process in which eukaryotic cells clear away dysfunctional proteins and damaged organelles: the abovementioned diseases involve abnormal autophagy. Interestingly, growing evidence indicates that Klotho plays a dual role as inducer or inhibitor of autophagy in different physiological or pathological conditions through its influence on IGF-1/PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway, Beclin 1 expression and activity, as well as aldosterone level, which can help restore autophagy to beneficial levels. The present review examines the role of Klotho in regulating autophagy in Alzheimer’s disease, kidney injury, cancer, COPD, vascular disease, muscular dystrophy and diabetes. Targeting Klotho may provide a new perspective for preventing and treating aging-related diseases.

Abstract
The deficiency of α-Klotho in mice causes phenotypes resembling human age-associated disorders at 3-4 weeks after birth and shows short lifespans of ∼2 months. One of the crucial symptoms is pulmonary emphysema, although α-Klotho is not expressed in the lungs. α-Klotho secreted from the kidneys is probably involved in the pathology of emphysema because kidney-specific knockout mice exhibit emphysematous structural changes. We examined whether any glycan changes in α-Klotho mouse lungs were observed, because α-Klotho is reported to have glycosidase activity. Here, we found the accumulation of heparan sulphate in the microsomal fraction of α-Klotho mouse lungs. Meanwhile, a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 17 (ADAM17) expression was decreased in α-Klotho mice. From these results, it is thought that the increase in heparan sulphate is due to insufficient cleavage of the core protein by ADAM17. Additionally, a reduction in α-Klotho and a decline of ADAM17 were also observed both in normal aged mice and in senescence marker protein-30 (SMP30) knockout mice, a mouse model of premature ageing. Thus, the decrease in ADAM17 is caused by the reduction in α-Klotho. These may be involved in the deterioration of lung function during ageing and may be associated with the pathology of pulmonary emphysema.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Until recently, the gene associated with the recessive form of familial brain calcification (PFBC, Fahr disease) was unknown. MYORG, a gene that causes recessive PFBC was only recently discovered and is currently the only gene associated with a recessive form of this disease. Here, we review the radiological and clinical findings in adult MYORG mutation homozygous and heterozygous individuals. RECENT FINDINGS MYORG was shown to be the cause of a large fraction of recessive cases of PFBC in patients of different ethnic populations. Pathogenic mutations include inframe insertions and deletions in addition to nonsense and missense mutations that are distributed throughout the entire MYORG coding region. Homozygotes have extensive brain calcification in all known cases, whereas in some carriers of heterozygous mutation, punctuated calcification of the globus pallidus is demonstrated. The clinical spectrum in homozygotes ranges from the lack of neurological symptoms to severe progressive neurological syndrome with bulbar and cerebellar signs, parkinsonism and other movement disorders, and cognitive impairments. Heterozygotes are clinically asymptomatic. MYORG is a transmembrane protein localized to the endoplasmic reticulum and is mainly expressed in astrocytes. While the biochemical pathways of the protein are still unknown, information from its evolution profile across hundreds of species (phylogenetic profiling) suggests a role for MYORG in regulating ion homeostasis via its glycosidase domain. MYORG mutations are a major cause for recessive PFBC in different world populations. Future studies are required in order to reveal the cellular role of the MYORG protein.

Abstract
Ursolic acid (UA) is a pentacyclic triterpene which is found in common herbs and medicinal plants that are reputed for a variety of pharmacological effects. Both as an active principle of these plants and as a nutraceutical ingredient, the pharmacology of UA in the CNS and other organs and systems has been extensively reported in recent years. In this communication, the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory axis of UA's pharmacology is appraised for its therapeutic potential in some common CNS disorders. Classic examples include the traumatic brain injury (TBI), cerebral ischemia, cognition deficit, anxiety, and depression. The pharmacological efficacy for UA is demonstrated through the therapeutic principle of one drug → multitargets → one/many disease(s). Both specific enzymes and receptor targets along with diverse pharmacological effects associated with oxidative stress and inflammatory signalling are scrutinised.

Abstract
Normocytic normochromic anemia is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with numerous adverse consequences. Certain symptoms previously attributed to CKD are now known to be a consequence of anemia. Anemia contributes to an increased cardiac output, and the development of left ventricular hypertrophy, angina and congestive heart failure, leading to high morbidity and mortality in patients with CKD. The multifunctional α-klotho (KL) protein, which is predominantly expressed in the kidneys, is associated with the occurrence of anemia in patients with CKD. The present review presents current evidence on the potential role of α-KL in renal anemia. Low expression of α-KL appears to improve anemia in patients with CKD, and has been hypothesized to be a compensatory mechanism to attenuate the effects of anemia in patients with CKD. Further understanding of the role of α-KL in renal anemia may offer novel insights into the treatment of patients with CKD complicated with anemia.
