Pleiotropic functions of secreted Klotho protein.

Glycoproteins regulated by secreted Klotho Klotho effects Ref.
Ion channels
Transient receptor potential vanilloid type isoform-5 Increase in Ca2+ influx [25]
Transporters
Renal outer medullary potassium channel-1 Increase in K+ efflux [33]
Na-dependent phosphate co-transporter, type-IIa Decrease in Pi influx [34]
Pit-1, 2 (Na-dependent phosphate co-transporter, type-III) Decrease in Pi influx [35]
Receptors
IGF-1 receptors Inhibition [15]
TGF-β1 receptor (type-II) Inhibition [36]
