Details


Name Kl
Type methylation
Species Mus musculus
Tissue kidney
Experiment Method DNA demethylase assay, qRT-PCR, Western blot,
Up/Down Down
Pro/Anti Anti
Funtion Description Klotho(KL) is described as an anti-aging gene because mutation of Kl gene leads to multiple pre-mature aging phenotypes and shortens lifespan in mice. We found that Compound H increased Kl expression via demethylation in CpG islands of the Kl gene.
