Abstract

Klotho is an anti‐aging protein with different functions of the full‐length membrane protein and the secreted hormone‐like form. Using overexpression and knock‐down approaches as well as embryonic fibroblasts of knock‐out mice we present evidence that Klotho is shedded by the α‐secretases ADAM10 and 17 as well as by the β‐secretase β‐APP cleaving enzyme 1. The remaining membrane‐bound fragment is a substrate for regulated intramembrane proteolysis by γ‐secretase. Our data suggest that therapeutic approaches targeting these proteases should be carefully analyzed for potential side effects on Klotho‐mediated physiological processes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
