    Abstract

    The reversal of soft-tissue abnormalities and prolonged lifespan observed in klotho(-/-) mice following genetic inactivation of 1 alpha-hydroxylase underscores the pathophysiological role of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D in mediating some of the premature aging-like features observed in klotho(-/-) mice.
