αKlotho Regulates Age-Associated Vascular Calcification and Lifespan in Zebrafish

Summary: The hormone αKlotho regulates lifespan in mice, as knockouts die early of what appears to be accelerated aging due to hyperphosphatemia and soft tissue calcification. In contrast, the overexpression of αKlotho increases lifespan. Given the severe mouse phenotype, we generated zebrafish muta...
