Abstrakt: Introduction: This study was designed to investigate whether renal α-klotho levels are associated with renal pathology. This is the first report on patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational study. A total of 65 CKD patients were enrolled. Serum and renal biopsy samples were collected. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was examined by biochemical test. And α-klotho expressions were assessed by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. In addition, detailed microscopic findings were reviewed.
Results: Renal α-klotho levels are associated positively with eGFR, and negatively with renal pathology, including interstitial fibrosis, inflammatory cell infiltration, and tubular atrophy.
Conclusions: The renal α-klotho is related to renal pathology.
