Article Abstract
The relationship between Klotho and epilepsy is poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate the association between serum Klotho levels and epilepsy. A total of 99,966 individuals who participated in the NHANES from the 2013 to 2016 were initially included. After excluding participants with missing data on serum Klotho concentration (57,286), epilepsy (6) and relevant covariates (6,096), the final sample consisted of 36,578 participants, with a mean age of 59 years. Weighted multivariable logistic regression analyses showed that high serum Klotho levels were negatively associated with the prevalence of epilepsy, with an odds ratio (OR) of 0.74 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.64 to 0.86; P < 0.001. The Restricted Cubic Spline analyses (RCS) model showed a non-linear relationship between the serum Klotho levels and epilepsy. Subgroup analysis showed that serum Klotho levels were negatively correlated with epilepsy prevalence in individuals under 65 years of age and in males. Our study suggests that serum Klotho levels were associated with the prevalence of epilepsy. Further large-scale prospective studies and randomized trials are warranted to confirm our findings.

September 2025
Background: Up to 90% of skin aging is caused by ultraviolet radiation, resulting in significant photodamage and clinical burden. Klotho Skin Serum, formulated with the Klotho protein for anti-aging, shows promise based on preclinical studies exploring its physiological functions and therapeutic applications.
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of Klotho Skin Serum in improving visible signs of photoaging.

Aims: Alcohol consumption is associated with numerous detrimental health outcomes and aging-related disorders. This study aims to investigate the impact of alcohol drinking levels and drinking behavior on serum levels of Klotho protein, an anti-aging biomarker for health and longevity, in middle-aged and older adults.
Methods: A nationally representative sample of 4225 adults aged 40-79 years from the 2013-2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys were analyzed using multiple general linear models.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) often progresses to chronic kidney disease (CKD), presenting a significant clinical challenge. The renin-angiotensin system (RAS), particularly the protective arm involving Angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7)), offers a potential therapeutic target to mitigate this progression. This study explores the effects of Ang-(1-7) in a murine model of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury-induced AKI.

Autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic vasculitis, spondyloarthritis (SpA), including ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA), are characterized by chronic immune activation and systemic inflammation. The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), computed as platelet count × neutrophil count/lymphocyte count, is a promising biomarker that reflects both inflammatory burden and immune dysregulation. In RA, elevation of SII is correlated with disease activity score, response to TNF-α inhibitors, and reduced serum Klotho levels.
