α-Klotho expression determines nitric oxide synthesis in response to FGF-23 in human aortic endothelial cells.

Endothelial cells (ECs) express fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptors and are metabolically active after treatment with FGF-23. It is not known if this effect is α-Klotho independent or mediated by humoral or endogenous endothelial α-Klotho. In the present study, we aimed to characterize EC α-Klo...
