KL ELISA Kit (Human) (OKBB01180)

Description of target: Klotho(KL) is a glycosylated protein that plays an important role in the regulation of phosphate and calcium homeostasis. This gene encodes a type-I membrane protein that is related to beta-glucosidases. Reduced production of this protein has been observed in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF), and this may be one of the factors underlying the degenerative processes (e.g., arteriosclerosis, osteoporosis, and skin atrophy) seen in CRF. Also, mutations within this protein have been associated with ageing and bone loss and alcohol consumption.;Species reactivity: Human;Application: ELISA;Assay info: ;Sensitivity: <10pg/ml
