“…It cannot be excluded that genetic polymorphisms of the Klotho gene also contribute to such physical states [ 62 , 63 ], even in relatively young and healthy individuals [ 58 ]. Gender and BMI were not significant modifiers in our study, which has also been demonstrated in several human studies [ 8 , 64 ], as well as animal studies [ 65 ]. Further large-scale prospective studies are required to verify our findings in different groups of healthy individuals.…”

“…However, other studies suggest a close relationship between Klotho levels and body weight, especially in patients with obesity or anorexia nervosa. 31,32 Some possible hypotheses to explain such contrasting results could be: (i) the local administration in the CNS in our study, rather than systemic intravenous administration, (ii) 6 months of klotho overexpression is not enough time to observe general physical effects; and/or (iii) the vector dose injected is not sufficient to increase Klotho levels in plasma up to concentrations affecting the skeletal muscle.…”

“…Lastly, though this paper is limited by a definition of bone disease that is very broad, future studies should assess the relationship between iron status and bone health as both iron deficiency and iron overload are currently being studied as factors that may impact bone health [43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50]. It is likely that the broad definition of bone disease and small number of assessments of bone health underestimated correlations between bone health and iron dynamics in this cohort.…”
