Klotho Ameliorates Vascular Calcification via Promoting Autophagy
Figure 3
The use of KL ameliorates aortic VC in Klotho-deficient mice. (a) The Von Kossa staining results show that the use of KL relieves aortic VC. (b) The use of KL apparently reduces Ca content compared with that in the KO group (). (c) The expression of Runx2 protein significantly decreases and α-SMA protein significantly increases in the group compared with those in the KO group (). .
