And also journey #2 just came to a conclusion. This time from CKD to nephrotic syndrome, from phosphate to lipids. Let’s see what 2026 can add to these unexpected findings.

What an interesting journey it has been - from the kidney to skeletal muscle and back. A great ending for 2025 and an even better kickstart for 2026. Thanks to our fantastic team!

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 bit.ly/JASN0388
