Hallelujah…

Thanks to Pfluegers Archiv for the invitation to review and discuss this important topic: Soft tissue calcifications in chronic kidney disease—beyond the vasculature

If you are interested in Klotho and its potential anti-aging effects, this is the place to be…

Some thoughts about how phosphate might damage tissues in chronic kidney disease…

Congratulations Dr. Timmy Lee @DrTimmyLee1 !!! Dr. Timmy Lee will serve as the next division director for the UAB Division of Nephrology @UAB_NRTC, effective July 1, 2025. @ogutierrez136

Now online in @NDTsocial by @cfaul1 Elevated phosphate levels in CKD - a direct threat for the heart 🧐Hyperphosphatemia-induced pathologic cardiac remodeling involves myocardial calcification that contributes to CVD ▶️ https://t.co/TFTlQQpZJW

They grow up so quickly…

It's that time again! We need a Researcher IV to join our group! If you fit the job qualifications in this link....please apply BUT only if you're awesome and really want to push science forward! 😉Please RT! @uab @UABImmunology @KUHPRIME https://t.co/OGCfthM8Jj

Among many things, phosphate is in the mix…

It took a while, but 15,000 words and 500 references later we present the discussion of a field that needs attention, from basic and clinical science, with many gaps but also great potential for novel drug development. Thanks @HeitmanKylie and @Matt_Muscle_Guy for great teamwork.

As CKD resembles accelerated aging, patients with CKD may benefit from klotho-focused aging research. This article discusses a novel klotho variant, a procedure to synthesize and purify the protein, and and assay to test its bioactivity https://t.co/j3fG5wFNpm @cfaul1

RIP Lubert Stryer - his Biochemistry was my first college textbook, a gift from the lab where I had a summer job

Our favorite element gets its own awareness day…fantastic!

Thanks to the teams at UAB HIIE and at Alpha Young LLC to get our start-up company launched. Exciting times are ahead of us. Let’s bring klotho from biology to therapy.

It’s done: #850challenge including the @nycmarathon to support @nkf

After 700 miles of training runs the time has come! @nycmarathon If you can, please support my fundraising for the @nkf to raise awareness for patients with kidney disease.

Google's Calico is 10 years-old. With $billions + top talent, they have published some good studies, but nothing revolutionary. Calico has ongoing clinical trials for ALS and cancer. Have they lived up to expectations? What do you think they should have done differently?

🆕in NDT! The basics of phosphate metabolism 📖 https://t.co/kcNs39ggBv This nice Review provides an integrated overview over the biology of phosphate and Pi in the mammalian organism.

This came in the mail today. Thank You @nkf. I should be easy to spot among the >40K runners at the @nycmarathon.
