The inac- tivation of the klotho gene causes serious systemic disorders resembling human aging, such as atherosderosis, diffuse vascular calcification and shortened life span. Klotho has been demonstrated to ameliorate vascular endothelial dysfunction and delay vascular calcification. Fur- thermore, klotho gene polymorphisms in the human are associated with various cardiovascular events. Recent experiments show that klotho may reduce transient receptor potential canonical6 （TRPC6） channels, resulting in protecting the heart from hypertrophy and systolic dys- function. Fibroblast growth factor23 （FGF23） is a bone-derived hormone that plays an important role in the regulation of phosphate and vi- tamin D metabolism. FGF23 accelerates urinary phosphate excretion and suppresses 1,25-dihydroxy vitaminD3 （1,25（OH）2D3）synthesis in the presence ofFGF receptorl （FGFR1） and its co-receptor ldotho, principally in the kidney. The hormonal affects of circulating klotho pro- tein and FGF23 on vascular and heart have contributed to an understanding of their roles in the pathophysiology of arterial stiffness and left ventricular hypertrophy. Klotho and FGF23 appear to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of vascular disease, and may represent a novel potential therapeutic strategy for clinical intervention.展开更多
