Abstract:We investigated the relationship between α-Klotho and cytokines related to inflammation in HD patients. We analyzed levels of α-Klotho with ELISA and inflammatory cytokines with CBA in the serum of HD patients. There was a significant negative correlation between the concentration of serum α-Klotho and patients’ age and the serum concentration of PTH. No correlation has been found between α-Klotho and Ca or Pi. HD time, creatynine or eGFR. However, there were significant positive correlations between the conce… Show more
