Is Low Serum Klotho Level Associated with Alterations in Coronary Flow Reserve?

Background The Klotho gene, described as an “aging suppressor” gene, encodes a single‐pass transmembrane protein. The extracellular part of Klotho is cleaved and released into the circulation where it may function as a vasculoprotective hormone. Coronary flow reserve (CFR) is accepted as a marker of...
