The expiry date of man: a synthesis of evolutionary biology and public health. (1/31363)

In industrialised countries, mortality and morbidity are dominated by age related chronic degenerative diseases. The health and health care needs of future populations will be heavily determined by these conditions of old age. Two opposite scenarios of future morbidity exist: morbidity might decrease ("compress"), because life span is limited, and the incidence of disease is postponed. Or morbidity might increase ("expand"), because death is delayed more than disease incidence. Optimality theory in evolutionary biology explains senescence as a by product of an optimised life history. The theory clarifies how senescence is timed by the competing needs for reproduction and survival, and why this leads to a generalised deterioration of many functions at many levels. As death and disease are not independent, future morbidity will depend on duration and severity of the process of senescence, partly determined by health care, palliating the disease severity but increasing the disease duration by postponing death. Even if morbidity might be compressed, health care needs will surely expand.  (+info)

Developmental synaptic changes increase the range of integrative capabilities of an identified excitatory neocortical connection. (2/31363)

Excitatory synaptic transmission between pyramidal cells and fast-spiking (FS) interneurons of layer V of the motor cortex was investigated in acute slices by using paired recordings at 30 degrees C combined with morphological analysis. The presynaptic and postsynaptic properties at these identified central synapses were compared between 3- and 5-week-old rats. At these two postnatal developmental stages, unitary EPSCs were mediated by the activation of AMPA receptors with fast kinetics at a holding potential of -72 mV. The amplitude distribution analysis of the EPSCs indicates that, at both stages, pyramidal-FS connections consisted of multiple functional release sites. The apparent quantal size obtained by decreasing the external calcium ([Ca2+]e) varied from 11 to 29 pA near resting membrane potential. In young rats, pairs of presynaptic action potentials elicited unitary synaptic responses that displayed paired-pulse depression at all tested frequencies. In older animals, inputs from different pyramidal cells onto the same FS interneuron had different paired-pulse response characteristics and, at most of these connections, a switch from depression to facilitation occurred when decreasing the rate of presynaptic stimulation. The balance between facilitation and depression endows pyramidal-FS connections from 5-week-old animals with wide integrative capabilities and confers unique functional properties to each synapse.  (+info)

Low resting potential and postnatal upregulation of NMDA receptors may cause Cajal-Retzius cell death. (3/31363)

Using in situ patch-clamp techniques in rat telencephalic slices, we have followed resting potential (RP) properties and the functional expression of NMDA receptors in neocortical Cajal-Retzius (CR) cells from embryonic day 18 to postnatal day 13, the time around which these cells normally disappear. We find that throughout their lives CR cells have a relatively depolarized RP (approximately -50 mV), which can be made more hyperpolarized (approximately -70 mV) by stimulation of the Na/K pump with intracellular ATP. The NMDA receptors of CR cells are subjected to intense postnatal upregulation, but their similar properties (EC50, Hill number, sensitivity to antagonists, conductance, and kinetics) throughout development suggest that their subunit composition remains relatively homogeneous. The low RP of CR cells is within a range that allows for the relief of NMDA channels from Mg2+ blockade. Our findings are consistent with the hypothesis that CR cells may degenerate and die subsequent to uncontrolled overload of intracellular Ca2+ via NMDA receptor activation by ambient glutamate. In support of this hypothesis we have obtained evidence showing the protection of CR cells via in vivo blockade of NMDA receptors with dizocilpine.  (+info)

Somatic recording of GABAergic autoreceptor current in cerebellar stellate and basket cells. (4/31363)

Patch-clamp recordings were performed from stellate and basket cells in rat cerebellar slices. Under somatic voltage clamp, short depolarizing pulses were applied to elicit action potentials in the axon. After the action potential, a bicuculline- and Cd2+-sensitive current transient was observed. A similar response was obtained when eliciting axonal firing by extracellular stimulation. With an isotonic internal Cl- solution, the peak amplitude of this current varied linearly with the holding potential, yielding an extrapolated reversal potential of -20 to 0 mV. Unlike synaptic or autaptic GABAergic currents obtained in the same preparation, the current transient had a slow rise-time and a low variability between trials. This current was blocked when 10 mM BAPTA was included in the recording solution. In some experiments, the current transient elicited axonal action potentials. The current transient was reliably observed in animals aged 12-15 d, with a mean amplitude of 82 pA at -70 mV, but was small and rare in the age group 29-49 d. Numerical simulations could account for all properties of the current transient by assuming that an action potential activates a distributed GABAergic conductance in the axon. The actual conductance is probably restricted to release sites, with an estimated mean presynaptic current response of 10 pA per site (-70 mV, age 12-15 d). We conclude that in developing rats, stellate and basket cell axons have a high density of GABAergic autoreceptors and that a sizable fraction of the corresponding current can be measured from the soma.  (+info)

Fas/Apo [apoptosis]-1 and associated proteins in the differentiating cerebral cortex: induction of caspase-dependent cell death and activation of NF-kappaB. (5/31363)

The developing cerebral cortex undergoes a period of substantial cell death. The present studies examine the role of the suicide receptor Fas/Apo[apoptosis]-1 in cerebral cortical development. Fas mRNA and protein are transiently expressed in subsets of cells within the developing rat cerebral cortex during the peak period of apoptosis. Fas-immunoreactive cells were localized in close proximity to Fas ligand (FasL)-expressing cells. The Fas-associated signaling protein receptor interacting protein (RIP) was expressed by some Fas-expressing cells, whereas Fas-associated death domain (FADD) was undetectable in the early postnatal cerebral cortex. FLICE-inhibitory protein (FLIP), an inhibitor of Fas activation, was also expressed in the postnatal cerebral cortex. Fas expression was more ubiquitous in embryonic cortical neuroblasts in dissociated culture compared to in situ within the developing brain, suggesting that the environmental milieu partly suppresses Fas expression at this developmental stage. Furthermore, FADD, RIP, and FLIP were also expressed by subsets of dissociated cortical neuroblasts in culture. Fas activation by ligand (FasL) or anti-Fas antibody induced caspase-dependent cell death in primary embryonic cortical neuroblast cultures. The activation of Fas was also accompanied by a rapid downregulation of Fas receptor expression, non-cell cycle-related incorporation of nucleic acids and nuclear translocation of the RelA/p65 subunit of the transcription factor NF-kappaB. Together, these data suggest that adult cortical cell number may be established, in part, by an active process of receptor-mediated cell suicide, initiated in situ by killer (FasL-expressing) cells and that Fas may have functions in addition to suicide in the developing brain.  (+info)

Metrifonate increases neuronal excitability in CA1 pyramidal neurons from both young and aging rabbit hippocampus. (6/31363)

The effects of metrifonate, a second generation cholinesterase inhibitor, were examined on CA1 pyramidal neurons from hippocampal slices of young and aging rabbits using current-clamp, intracellular recording techniques. Bath perfusion of metrifonate (10-200 microM) dose-dependently decreased both postburst afterhyperpolarization (AHP) and spike frequency adaptation (accommodation) in neurons from young and aging rabbits (AHP: p < 0.002, young; p < 0.050, aging; accommodation: p < 0.024, young; p < 0.001, aging). These reductions were mediated by muscarinic cholinergic transmission, because they were blocked by addition of atropine (1 microM) to the perfusate. The effects of chronic metrifonate treatment (12 mg/kg for 3 weeks) on CA1 neurons of aging rabbits were also examined ex vivo. Neurons from aging rabbits chronically treated with metrifonate had significantly reduced spike frequency accommodation, compared with vehicle-treated rabbits. Chronic metrifonate treatment did not result in a desensitization to metrifonate ex vivo, because bath perfusion of metrifonate (50 microM) significantly decreased the AHP and accommodation in neurons from both chronically metrifonate- and vehicle-treated aging rabbits. We propose that the facilitating effect of chronic metrifonate treatment on acquisition of hippocampus-dependent tasks such as trace eyeblink conditioning by aging subjects may be caused by this increased excitability of CA1 pyramidal neurons.  (+info)

Thiamine deficiency is prevalent in a selected group of urban Indonesian elderly people. (7/31363)

This cross-sectional study involved 204 elderly individuals (93 males and 111 females). Subjects were randomly recruited using a list on which all 60-75 y-old-people living in seven sub-villages in Jakarta were included. The usual food intake was estimated using semiquantitative food frequency questionnaires. Hemoglobin, plasma retinol, vitamin B-12, red blood cell folate and the percentage stimulation of erythrocyte transketolase (ETK), as an indicator of thiamine status, were analyzed. Median energy intake was below the assessed requirement. More than 75% of the subjects had iron and thiamine intakes of approximately 2/3 of the recommended daily intake, and 20.2% of the study population had folate intake of approximately 2/3 of the recommended daily intake. Intakes of vitamins A and B-12 were adequate. Biochemical assessments demonstrated that 36.6% of the subjects had low thiamine levels (ETK stimulation > 25%). The elderly men tended to have lower thiamine levels than the elderly women. The overall prevalence of anemia was 28.9%, and the elderly women were affected more than the elderly men. Low biochemical status of vitamins A, B-12 and RBC folate was found in 5.4%, 8.8 % and 2.9% of the subjects, respectively. Dietary intakes of thiamine and folate were associated with ETK stimulation and plasma vitamin B-12 concentration (r = 0.176, P = 0.012 and r = 0.77, P = 0.001), respectively. Results of this study suggest that anemia, thiamine and possibly vitamin B-12 deficiency are prevalent in the elderly living in Indonesia. Clearly, micronutrient supplementation may be beneficial for the Indonesian elderly population living in underprivileged areas.  (+info)

High-linoleate and high-alpha-linolenate diets affect learning ability and natural behavior in SAMR1 mice. (8/31363)

Semipurified diets incorporating either perilla oil [high in alpha-linolenate, 18:3(n-3)] or safflower oil [high in linoleate, 18:2(n-6)] were fed to senescence-resistant SAMR1 mouse dams and their pups. Male offspring at 15 mo were examined using behavioral tests. In the open field test, locomotor activity during a 5-min period was significantly higher in the safflower oil group than in the perilla oil group. Observations of the circadian rhythm (48 h) of spontaneous motor activity indicated that the safflower oil group was more active than the perilla oil group during the first and second dark periods. The total number of responses to positive and negative stimuli was higher in the safflower oil group than in the perilla oil group in the light and dark discrimination learning test, but the correct response ratio was lower in the safflower oil group. The difference in the (n-6)/(n-3) ratios of the diets reflected the proportions of (n-6) polyunsaturated fatty acids, rather than those of (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids in the brain total fatty acids, and in the proportions of (n-6) and (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids in the total polyunsaturated fatty acids of the brain phospholipids. These results suggest that in SAMR1 mice, the dietary alpha-linolenate/linoleate balance affects the (n-6)/(n-3) ratio of brain phospholipids, and this may modify emotional reactivity and learning ability.  (+info)

TY - JOUR. T1 - Age-associated Differences in Cardiovascular Inflammatory Gene Induction during Endotoxic Stress. AU - Saito, Hiroshi. AU - Papaconstantinou, John. PY - 2001/8/3. Y1 - 2001/8/3. N2 - Upon physiological stress, families of stress response genes are activated as natural defense mechanisms. Here, we show that induction of specific inflammatory genes is significantly dysregulated and altered in the heart of aged (24-26-month-old) versus young (4-month-old) mice experimentally challenged with a bacterial endotoxin, lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 1.5 mg/kg of body mass). Whereas the LPS-mediated induction of cardiac mRNA for tumor necrosis factor α or inducible nitric-oxide synthase showed no age-associated differences, the induction of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and intracellular adhesion molecule-1 was modestly extended with aging, and the induction of IL-6 was significantly prolonged with aging. This age-associated phenomenon occurred gradually from 4 to 17 months of age and became more ...

Musculoskeletal conditions are a major burden on individuals, healthcare systems, and social care systems throughout the world, with indirect costs having the predominant economic impact. Aging is a major contributing factor to the development and progression of arthritic and musculoskeletal diseases. Indeed, aging and inflammation (often referred to as inflammaging) are critical risk factors for the development of osteoarthritis (OA), which is one the most common forms of joint disease. The term chondrosenescence has recently been introduced to define the age-dependent deterioration of chondrocyte function and how it undermines cartilage function in OA. An important component of chondrosenescence is the age-related deregulation of subcellular signalling pathways in chondrocytes. This mini-review discusses the role of age-related alterations in chondrocyte signaling pathways. In this article we focus our attention on two major areas: age-dependent alterations in transforming growth factor-β ...

Aberrant Innate Immune Functions of Dendritic Cells in Aged Humans (85.12) | The Journal of ImmunologyAberrant Innate Immune Functions of Dendritic Cells in Aged Humans (85.12) | The Journal of Immunology
Investigations of intracellular signaling revealed reduced phosphorylation of AKT in MDDCs from aging, suggesting decreased activation of PI3kinase signaling pathway. Since PI3K signaling pathway plays a positive regulatory role in phagocytosis and migration, and it also functions as a negative regulator of TLR signaling by inducing activation of p38 MAP kinase, this may explain the aberrant innate immune functioning of DCs from aged subjects. Results further revealed an increased expression of PTEN, a negative regulator of PI3Kinase signaling pathway, in MDDCs from aged subjects. Increased PTEN may thus be responsible for the defect in AKT phosphorylation and therefore, altered innate immune response of DCs from aged humans..

Voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSCs) generate the Na+ current (INa) responsible for the cardiac action potential upstroke largely due to the cardiac isoform Nav1.5, but other isoforms are responsible for ˜20% of the upstroke and a component of a sustained sodium current. This sustained component has been attributed with an increasing arrhythmia risk, particularly within the elderly and has been the target of development for new anti-arrhythmic drugs. Our study has investigated the age-associated changes in protein density and localisation of the VGSC alpha-subunits Nav1.5 and Nav1.4 in the rat heart.. Rats at 6, 12 and 28 months of age were sacrificed, their hearts dissected into the regions of left and right ventricle, left and right atria, epicardium and endocardium (n = 5). These regions were analysed by western blot to determine the protein expression of Nav1.5 and Nav1.4 (Alomone, Israel), normalised to the expression of desmin (Dako, UK).

The influence of HIV infection on the age dependence of squamous cell carcinoma of the skin in South AfricaThe influence of HIV infection on the age dependence of squamous cell carcinoma of the skin in South Africa
BACKGROUND. Cancer incidence typically increases with age, but it is not known whether ethnic characteristics influence the age dependence of squamous cell carcinoma of the skin (SCC). OBJECTIVES. (i) To determine the age dependence of SCC in the black African, coloured and white population groups of South Africa (SA); and (ii) to show whether any differences in the rate of change of age dependence could be influenced by diversity in behaviour and lifestyle, especially with regard to the prevalence of HIV infection, rather than by a fundamental variation in cancer biology between the populations. METHODS. Linear regression analysis was applied to the logarithm of the age-specific incidence rates for SCC v. the logarithm of age between 35 and 74 years. The slopes of the regression (age exponent) were compared for each subset of gender, population group and year of diagnosis (between 2000 and 2010). RESULTS. The most notable feature was the low value of the age exponent in both male and female ...

Age effect on the default mode network, inner thoughts, and cognitive abilities. - InsermAge effect on the default mode network, inner thoughts, and cognitive abilities. - Inserm
Age-related effects on the default mode network (DMN) connectivity as measured at rest using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) are now well described. Little is known however about the relationships between these changes and age-related effects on cognition or on the unconstrained thoughts which occur during the resting-state scan, called inner experience. Brain resting-state activity, inner experience, and cognitive ability measurements were obtained in 70 participants aged 19-80 years. The anterior-posterior disruption of DMN activity with age reported in previous studies was recovered here. A significant effect of age was also found on cognitive abilities but not on inner experience. Finally, age-related changes in DMN connectivity were found to correlate with cognitive abilities, and more specifically with autobiographical memory performance. These findings provide new information to fuel the debate on the role of the brain default mode and more specifically on the effect of age-related

The retinal hypoperfusion found in the present study is also in support of the cerebral hypoperfusion, which occurs during normal aging (Table 4).1,5,11,22 Chen et al.1 studied the age-related reduction of CBF during normal aging in a cohort of normal subjects and found that the CBF as an indirect measurement of brain perfusion declined at a rate of −0.38% per year when the entire cortex was examined. Meanwhile, the cortical grey matter volume decreased at a rate of −0.85% per year, which exceeds the reductions in CBF.1 Leenders et al.5 reported that the CBF, cerebral blood volume, and cerebral metabolic rates of oxygen decline at a rate of −0.5% per year during normal aging.

Multiple Brain Markers are Linked to Age-Related Variation in CognitionMultiple Brain Markers are Linked to Age-Related Variation in Cognition
Age-related alterations in brain structure and function have been challenging to link to cognition due to potential overlapping influences of multiple neurobiological cascades. We examined multiple brain markers associated with age-related variation in cognition. Clinically normal older humans aged 65-90 from the Harvard Aging Brain Study (N = 186) were characterized on a priori magnetic resonance imaging markers of gray matter thickness and volume, white matter hyperintensities, fractional anisotropy (FA), resting-state functional connectivity, positron emission tomography markers of glucose metabolism and amyloid burden, and cognitive factors of processing speed, executive function, and episodic memory. Partial correlation and mediation analyses estimated age-related variance in cognition shared with individual brain markers and unique to each marker. The largest relationships linked FA and striatum volume to processing speed and executive function, and hippocampal volume to episodic memory. ...

Age is the single greatest risk factor in the development of the blinding eye disease AMD where the prevalence of disease significantly increases as individuals enter their sixth decade. 2,3 In spite of this universal observation, other factors that lead to increased disease incidence remain undefined. Increases in damage from environmental stresses, accumulation of damaged proteins and organelles, and loss of function in important biochemical pathways all have been proposed. 3,4,13,52 The immune system is also thought to have a role in disease development 12-14,53 ; however, few studies have addressed how age-related changes in the immune response could be involved. The eye also is an immune privileged organ that can have a strong inhibitory influence on inflammatory and neovascular responses via a number of immunosuppressive mediators. 21 How age-dependent changes in the immune system are influenced by immune privilege and how age might alter the function of immune privilege is currently ...

JCI - Popeye domain containing proteins are essential for stress-mediated modulation of cardiac pacemaking in miceJCI - Popeye domain containing proteins are essential for stress-mediated modulation of cardiac pacemaking in mice
In this report, we demonstrated that loss of function mutations in Popdc1 and Popdc2 genes in mice are associated with stress-induced SND, resulting in chronotropic incompetence and long sinus pauses. The Popdc genes displayed overlapping myocardial expression patterns and similar biochemical properties, and the cardiac phenotypes of the null mutants were nearly identical. Our data suggest that Popdc proteins represent a novel class of cAMP binding proteins that interact with TREK-1 channels and may be involved in channel trafficking. Age-dependent decline in cardiac pacemaking in Popdc null mutants. Both mouse mutants developed SND at advanced age. Assuming that Popdc genes act in the same pathway, loss of a single gene might not have a significant impact on function in the young, since both Popdc genes might be able to substitute for each other. Obviously, the compensation became less efficient when the null mutants aged, possibly due to an age-dependent decline of Popdc expression. ...

Expanded CD4+ and CD8+ T cell clones in elderly humans. | The Journal of ImmunologyExpanded CD4+ and CD8+ T cell clones in elderly humans. | The Journal of Immunology
The diversity of the human TCR repertoire in aging has been studied by examining the profiles of complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3) sizes expressed by the BV families. The TCRBV CDR3 profile, which shows size heterogeneity in young adult humans, is significantly restricted in aged humans. Clonal T cell expansions were identified using a PCR-based approach, in one or more BV families from all 14 healthy persons over the age of 65 that we studied. CD4+ T cell expansions were identified in 8 of 11 donors and CD8+ T cell expansions in 7 of 10 donors. These clonal expansions were stable during a 2-year period. Interestingly, more than half of the aged persons had clonal expansions within the BV3, -14, -16, and -23 families. Although there was no homology among the eight CDR3 sequences identified in clonal T cells from 8 aged persons, selective pressure on the expanded T cell clones was suggested by the fact that the BV families used by the T cell clones were not proportional to the number of ...

Immune aging may underlie various aging-related disorders, including diminished resistance to infection, chronic inflammatory disorders, and autoimmunity. PD-1+ and CD153+ CD44high CD4+ T cells with features of cellular senescence, termed senescence-associated T (SA-T) cells, increasingly accumulate with age and may play a role in the immune aging phenotype. In this article, we demonstrate that, compared with young mice, the aged mouse environment is highly permissive for spontaneous proliferation of transferred naive CD4+ T cells, and it drives their transition to PD-1+ and CD153+ CD44high CD4+ T cells after extensive cell divisions. CD4+ T cells with essentially the same features as SA-T cells in aged mice are also generated from naive CD4+ T cells after extensive cell divisions under severe T-lymphopenic conditions by gamma irradiation or in developmental T cell defect, often in association with spontaneous germinal centers, as seen in aged mice. The increase in SA-T cells is significantly enhanced

The relationship between the PHA (phytohemagglutinin) stimulation indices and spontaneous thymidine incorporation; the PHA dose-response type distribution and the relative number of resting T lymphocytes was similar to the control group in aged subjects of seemingly intact T lymphocyte transformation values. However, their B cell compartment was found to be reduced. On the other hand, the ratio between the stimulation indices and spontaneous thymidine incorporation values of aged subjects of impaired T lymphocyte reactivity deviated from that of the control group.

Endotoxin-induced myocardial dysfunction in senescent rats | Critical Care | Full TextEndotoxin-induced myocardial dysfunction in senescent rats | Critical Care | Full Text
The present study tested whether aging alters endotoxin-induced myocardial dysfunction in a sublethal model of endotoxemia in rats. The main findings were the following: 12 hours after LPS injection (0.5 mg/kg), a marked reduction in myocardial contractility was observed in the isolated perfused senescent heart; in contrast with septic cardiac dysfunction in young rats, myofilament Ca2+ sensitivity of left ventricular skinned fibers was not reduced in senescent rats; and NO production, oxidative stress, and antioxidant enzymes activities were not different between young adult and senescent LPS groups. Thus, despite similar alterations in potential mediators, cellular mechanisms responsible for this contractile dysfunction are different between young adult and senescent rats. More specifically, myofilament Ca2+ responsiveness remains unaltered in the senescent heart. This may have clinical implications for management of elderly septic patients.. Nonlethal models of endotoxemia have allowed ...

First, we found that the level of soluble HS is positively correlated with age in vitreous samples from idiopathic maculopathies. We then showed that soluble HS levels in aqueous humor were lower in younger diabetic subjects with retinal NVs than in older diabetic subjects without retinal NVs or in nondiabetic subjects with cataract; the difference was no longer significant after controlling for the ages in these groups. The lack of correlation between severity of retinopathy and HS levels suggests that reduced HS levels in the aqueous humor in younger PDR patients could be explained at least in part by age and not by the severity of retinopathy. While the observation appears to contradict the reported correlation between reduced HS levels in the kidney and the diabetes mellitus [16-18], our study does not exclude the possibility of a less significant contribution of diabetes mellitus to ocular levels of HS. Analysis of the intraocular fluid from nondiabetic controls age-matched for PDR and a ...

Characterization of age-related variation in corneal biomechanical properties | Journal of The Royal Society InterfaceCharacterization of age-related variation in corneal biomechanical properties | Journal of The Royal Society Interface
Various age-related changes in the biomechanics and topography of different ocular components have been reported in the literature. Albon et al. (2000) observed a decrease in both the mechanical compliance and resilience of the human lamina cribrosa with age, and similar observations were made by Krag et al. (1997) in the lens capsule. Strong association was found between the age-related alterations in the optic nerve head and its increased susceptibility to glaucomatous damage (Burgoyne & Downs 2008). The asphericity of both the anterior and posterior corneal surfaces was reported to undergo significant changes with age, leading to a more spherical topography (Lam & Douthwaite 2002) and peripheral thinning (Dubbelman et al. 2006). Stiffening and increased tensile strength of the sclera were also found to be strongly associated with age (Avetisov et al. 1983; Schultz et al. 2008). Where an explanation was provided for these changes, it was the age-related increase in the intermolecular and ...

Coenzyme Q10 supplementation reverses age-related impairments in spatial learning and lowers protein oxidation - Age (Dordr). 2013 Oct;35(5):1821-34 - the current study assessed the effect of CoQ intake in older mice for which cognitive and psychomotor impairments were already evident. Separate groups of young (3.5 months) and relatively old mice (17.5 months) were fed a control diet or a diet supplemented with low (0.72 mg/g) or high (2.81 mg/g) concentrations of CoQ for 15 weeks. After 6 weeks, the mice were given tests for spatial learning (Morris water maze), spontaneous locomotor activity, motor coordination, and startle reflex. Age-related impairments in cognitive and psychomotor functions were evident in the 17.5-month-old mice fed the control diet, and the low-CoQ diet failed to affect any aspect of the impaired performance. However, in the Morris water maze test, old mice on the high-CoQ diet swam to the safe platform with greater efficiency than the mice on the control diet. The old ...

Human Aging: A Biological and Behavioral Longitudinal Study of Healthy Aged Males, 1957-1968Human Aging: A Biological and Behavioral Longitudinal Study of Healthy Aged Males, 1957-1968
This data collection contains data gathered in a longitudinal study of a sample of men aged 65 to 92 who were in good health during the first wave of the study in 1957. The chief aim of the study was to focus on the nature of the normal aging process in individuals of advanced age. The 47 study participants had not suffered from accidents, illnesses, severe emotional or personality problems, or environmental difficulties that might have led to premature aging, but 20 participants showed evidence of asymptomatic subclinical disease. This group represented the typical or average healthy aged individual with minimal degrees of physical pathology. Five years later, in 1962, a follow-up study was conducted with 29 of the 39 men still alive. The second follow-up, done in 1968, involved 19 of the surviving 23 men. The data are arranged in files by year: 1957, 1962, and 1968. Included are psychiatric data and medical evaluative data as well as various psychological and medical test scores (e.g., ...

The effects of the co-agonist of the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAr) d-serine on glutamatergic neurotransmission and synaptic potentiation were studied in the CA1 hippocampal field of young (3-5 months old) and aged (25-27 months old) Sprague-Dawley rats using ex vivo extracellular electrophysiological recording techniques. Exogenous d-serine depressed fast neurotransmission mediated by the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid/kainate subtype of glutamate receptors in young but not in aged rats by acting on inhibitory glycinergic interneurons. In contrast, d-serine dose-dependently enhanced NMDAr-mediated synaptic responses in both groups of animals, but with a larger magnitude in aged rats, thus preventing the age-related decrease in NMDAr activation. d-serine also increased the magnitude of long-term potentiation in aged but not in young rats. Finally, d-serine levels were dramatically reduced in hippocampal tissues of aged rats. Taken together, these results indicate a ...

Background: Acute lung injury (ALI) is a significant source of morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. Age is a major determinant of clinical outcome in ALI. The increased ALI-associated mortality in the older population suggests that there are age-dependent alterations in the responses to pulmonary challenge. The objective of this observational study was to evaluate age-dependent differences in the acute (within 6 hours) immunological and physiological responses of the heart and lung, to pulmonary challenge, that could result in increased severity. Methods: Male C57Bl/6 mice (young: 2-3 months, old: 18-20 months) were challenged intratracheally with cell wall components from Gram-positive bacteria (lipoteichoic acid and peptidoglycan). After 6 hours, both biochemical and physiological consequences of the challenge were assessed. Alveolar infiltration of inflammatory cells and protein, airspace and blood cytokines, cardiac function and myocardial proteasome activity were determined. Results:

S3.4 Genetic and environmental influences on the markers of biological age - Aldring og helseS3.4 Genetic and environmental influences on the markers of biological age - Aldring og helse
Chair: Juulia Jylhävä. Markers of biological age have recently proven to be strong mortality predictors independent of other risk factors. As individuals with the same chronological age can vary substantially for their biological age it has become a pressing issue to find the determinants for biological age. This symposium presents findings on the genetic and environmental influences to the following markers of biological age: self-rated health, the frailty index, the epigenetic clock and telomere length. Using unique longitudinal twin cohorts with wide age ranges, we are also able to assess the changes in the contributing sources variation - i.e., genetics and shared and unique environments. The first paper demonstrates how the heritability of self-rated health is influenced by financial strain. The second paper examines if the polygenic risk scores for well-being are predictive of objective (i.e. frailty and multi-morbidity) and subjective indicators of age-related health (e.g. ...

Aged rats (22 to 24 months) and young control rats (3 months) were tested in a battery of behavioral tests which included tests of learning, place navigation, sensorimotor integration, motor coordination, activity, and exploration. Following testing all animals were analyzed in an unanesthetized state for their local glucose utilization. Significant differences in glucose utilization were found between the aged and young groups on some behaviors and in some brain regions. There was considerable variability in the aged group in both their behavioral performance and their glucose utilization scores; thus, attempts were made to determine whether the variability in the degree of impairment within any particular behavioral test was correlated to the regional glucose utilization scores in any of the 45 brain regions analyzed. In two of the behavioral tests employed (i.e., one for learning and one for place navigation), the decline in performance correlated significantly with the decrement in regional ...

Impaired energy production in older neurons may help explain why human brains are so vulnerable to age-related diseases, according to a new study at Salk Institute in California.. The scientists used a new strategy to discover that cells from older people had dysfunctional mitochondria - the power stations of cells - and lower energy production.. Mitochondria are responsible for converting our food into chemical energy our cells can use. Defects in mitochondrial genes can lead to disease, but researchers also know that mitochondria become less efficient with age and can drive age-related disorders, such as Alzheimers and Parkinsons.. Studying the impact of aging on mitochondria could help researchers gain a better understanding of the known link between mitochondrial dysfunction and age-related brain diseases.. The new findings are published in the journal Cell Reports.. Most other methods use chemical stresses on cells to simulate aging, said senior author Dr. Rusty Gage, a professor in ...

Many detailed questions were formulated in order to provide a framework for discussing the crucial gaps in knowledge concerning CMV and immunosenescence. These included asking whether immunosenescence starts at the level of the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC); the role of the thymus? Which biomarkers are best? What impact does CMV have on the HSC microenvironment, thymus? Is there no age-associated decrease of CD8 naïve cells in CMV-negative people? Is the decrease in naïve cells in CMV+ people limited to CD8, and not CD4, cells? Is the decrease of naïve cells associated with any clinical outcome? Are T-regs altered with age and what is the effect of CMV thereon? Does CMV affect B cells (part of the IRP)? Is there a contribution of innate immunity to the IRP?

Age-Dependent Impairment of Angiogenesis | CirculationAge-Dependent Impairment of Angiogenesis | Circulation
The results of the present experiments establish that angiogenesis is impaired as a function of age. The reduced capability for collateral vessel development in response to ischemia was confirmed in 2 different animal models. The ultimate hindlimb BPR achieved at 40 days after surgery was significantly less in old than in young NZW rabbits. In old mice, perfusion of the ischemic hindlimb, reflected by the Doppler flow ratio, was significantly reduced compared with young mice; this difference was apparent as soon as 7 days after surgery and persisted throughout the duration (28 days) of the study. Likewise, the number of blood vessels that were angiographically visible in rabbits and the number of capillaries per unit area identified histologically in mice and rabbits were both significantly reduced in old versus young animals. The latter finding is consistent with the observation that myocardial angiogenesis related to left ventricular hypertrophy is attenuated in an age-dependent manner.20 The ...

Overexpression of Catalase Targeted to Mitochondria Attenuates Murine Cardiac Aging | CirculationOverexpression of Catalase Targeted to Mitochondria Attenuates Murine Cardiac Aging | Circulation
Our results demonstrate that overexpression of mCAT protects mice from cardiac aging, providing direct evidence for the role of mitochondrial ROS in the aging of this vital organ. Several lines of evidence support this conclusion. In WT mice from the longevity cohort, we found age-dependent LV hypertrophy and a decline in cardiac performance (especially diastolic function), concomitant with the accumulation of oxidized mitochondrial proteins, mtDNA mutations, increased ventricular fibrosis, cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, a decline in SERCA2 protein, and activation of the calcineurin-NFAT pathway in the aged heart. These age-related alterations took place in the absence of significant cardiovascular risks such as diabetes, hypertension, or hypercholesterolemia, suggesting that these findings are primary changes of cardiac aging rather than secondary to other diseases. mCAT littermates were partially protected from all of the above age-related cardiac alterations, suggesting that these aging changes ...

Age related changes in speed and mechanism of adult skeletal muscle stem cell migration - The Mathematical Institute,...Age related changes in speed and mechanism of adult skeletal muscle stem cell migration - The Mathematical Institute,...
Skeletal muscle undergoes a progressive age-related loss in mass and function. Preservation of muscle mass depends in part on satellite cells, the resident stem cells of skeletal muscle. Reduced satellite cell function may contribute to the age-associated decrease in muscle mass. Here, we focused on characterizing the effect of age on satellite cell migration. We report that aged satellite cells migrate at less than half the speed of young cells. In addition, aged cells show abnormal membrane extension and retraction characteristics required for amoeboid-based cell migration. Aged satellite cells displayed low levels of integrin expression. By deploying a mathematical model approach to investigate mechanism of migration, we have found that young satellite cells move in a random memoryless manner, whereas old cells demonstrate superdiffusive tendencies. Most importantly, we show that nitric oxide, a key regulator of cell migration, reversed the loss in migration speed and reinstated the ...

Age-dependent Changes in Nervonic Acid-Containing Sphingolipids in Mouse Hippocampus - Analytical Products / Alfa ChemistryAge-dependent Changes in Nervonic Acid-Containing Sphingolipids in Mouse Hippocampus - Analytical Products / Alfa Chemistry
Sphingolipids have been implicated in age-related neurodegeneration. Previous studies have reported elevated ceramide levels in the brain of old rodents, but a systematic investigation of the impact of age on brain sphingolipid metabolism is still lacking. Here we quantified 17 key sphingolipid species in the hippocampus of young (3months), middle-aged (12months) and old (21months) male and female mice. Lipids were extracted and quantified by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry; transcription of enzymes involved in sphingolipid biosynthesis was evaluated by qPCR. Age-dependent changes of multiple sphingolipid species - including ceramide (d18:1/18:0), sphingomyelin (d34:1), hexosylceramide (d18:1/16:0), ceramide (d18:1/24:0) - were found in mice of both sexes. Moreover, sex-dependent changes were seen with hexosylceramide (d18:1/18:0), ceramide (d18:1/22:0), sphingomyelin (d36:1) and sphingomyelin (d42:1). Importantly, an age-dependent accumulation of sphingolipids containing nervonic acid ...

Food-grade diatomaceous earth possesses a number of anti-aging benefits. These anti-aging benefits include improvement in skin elasticity, softening of wrinkles and fine lines, and preventing the onset of age-related disorders, such as memory loss i.e. dementia and bone problems like osteoporosis. Lets take a look at how diatomaceous earth works to prevent the occurrence of osteoporosis in aged individuals. Role of Diatomaceous In Preventing Osteoporosis. Diatomaceous earth bloggers have said that it has a scientifically-proven role in maintaining the bone density and helping in overall bone formation. Its mostly beneficial in aged individuals who tend to go through age-related degeneration of bones. When a person ages, their total number of osteoclasts i.e. cells which are responsible for destruction of bone-cell tissues is much higher as compared to osteoblasts i.e. cells which are involved in integral bone formation because of their protein and minerals transport activity. This imbalance in ...

The molecular mechanisms by which heterogeneity, a major characteristic of stem cells, is achieved are yet unclear. We here study the expression of the membrane stem cell antigen-1 (Sca-1) in mouse bone marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) clones. We show that subpopulations with varying Sca-1 expression profiles regenerate the Sca-1 profile of the mother population within a few days. However, after extensive replication in vitro the expression profiles shift to lower values and the regeneration time increases. Study of the promoter of Ly6a unravels that the expression level of Sca-1 is related to the promoter occupancy by the activating histone mark H3K4me3. We demonstrate that these findings can be consistently explained by a computational model that considers positive feedback between promoter H3K4me3 modification and gene transcription. This feedback implicates bistable epigenetic states which the cells occupy with an age-dependent frequency due to persistent histone (de-)modification. Our ...

N2 - While evidence is conflicting, estrogen cannot be recommended for the treatment of dementia but may have a role in preserving cognitive functioning in older women. Estrogen may have a dementia-prevention effect after menopause based on epidemiologic studies (not primary prevention studies), but this is not an approved indication. At this point, the off-label prescribing of estrogen for cognitive decline in the absence of dementia is not a routine clinical practice and should be regarded as appropriate only within the context of a research study. Estrogen may be used in late-stage dementia to treat aggressive or sexually disinhibited behavior,45 but this would not be considered a routine use in dementia patients. Estrogen use after menopause has been linked to increased risk of venous thrombosis, ...

Introduction: Previous studies have shown significant age-related change in the first-order kernel response of the multifocal ERG (mfERG). However, they all involved use of ring averages across the retinal field. Purpose: To estimate the age-related changes in the localized response and retinal topography using point-to-point comparison. To determine the localized variability in the mfERG scalar product across age and the topography of the age-related change. Methods: MfERG recordings of 71 normal phakic subjects (ages 9-80) were analyzed with VERIS TM 4.8. The stimulus parameters were: 103 hexagons, 75 Hz frame rate, peak luminance 200 cd/m2, m= 2^14. Scalar products (for each hexagon based on ring average templates) were obtained and analyzed for age-related changes. Statistical measures (coefficient of variation (CV) and parameters of a linear regression model) were applied. Point-by-point comparison for hemifields was performed. Results: Each localized response showed a significant aging ...

Non-enzymatic protein modifications occur inevitably in all living systems. Products of such modifications accumulate during aging of cells and organisms and may contribute to their age-related functional deterioration. This review presents the formation of irreversible protein modifications such as carbonylation, nitration and chlorination, modifications by 4-hydroxynonenal, removal of modified proteins and accumulation of these protein modifications during aging of humans and model organisms, and their enhanced accumulation in age-related brain diseases.

The individual and combined effects of cimetidine and ciprofloxacin on theophylline metabolism were examined in healthy young and elderly male and female nonsmokers. Single-dose studies of theophylline pharmacokinetics were performed at base line and on the fifth day of each of three treatment regimens consisting of 400 mg cimetidine every 12 hr, 500 mg ciprofloxacin every 12 hr and the combination of cimetidine and ciprofloxacin. Base-line theophylline plasma clearance and formation clearance of theophylline metabolites decreased with age in both gender groups to a similar extent (20% less in elderly men than in young men; 24% less in elderly women than in young women). Individually, cimetidine and ciprofloxacin produced proportionate declines in plasma theophylline clearance that were similar among the four groups (range, 23.4-32.7% decrease). The combined regimen yielded further impairment in theophylline elimination compared with each agent alone (range, 35.9-42.6% decrease). Cimetidine was ...

Aging stem cells may play a critical role in determining the effects of aging on organ function. With regard to vascular diseases, it has been postulated that circulating EPCs are involved in the repair mechanisms after endothelial damage (27,28). Ultimately, deterioration of endothelial or vascular function may be related to both quantitative and qualitative changes of stem cells.. We describe here the first comprehensive analysis of the association between age-related endothelial dysfunction and the number and function of circulating EPCs, defined by expression of CD34+/VEGFR2+ and CD133+/VEGFR2+. Although no quantitative differences in EPCs were observed, our data illustrate that culture-enriched EPCs from old but otherwise healthy subjects are impaired in terms of fundamental functional features like proliferation (important for amplifying the cellular pool), migration (critical for homing of circulating EPCs), and survival. We demonstrate a significant univariate correlation between the ...

The effect of alpha-actinin-3 deficiency on muscle aging | Garvan Institute of Medical ResearchThe effect of alpha-actinin-3 deficiency on muscle aging | Garvan Institute of Medical Research
Deficiency of the fast-twitch muscle protein alpha-actinin-3 due to homozygosity for a nonsense polymorphism (R577X) in the ACTN3 gene is common in humans. alpha-Actinin-3 deficiency (XX) is associated with reduced muscle strength/power and enhanced endurance performance in elite athletes and in the general population. The association between R577X and loss in muscle mass and function (sarcopenia) has previously been investigated in a number of studies in elderly humans. The majority of studies report loss of ACTN3 genotype association with muscle traits in the elderly, however, there is some indication that the XX genotype may be associated with faster muscle function decline. To further explore these potential age-related effects and the underlying mechanisms, we examined the effect of alpha-actinin-3 deficiency in aging male and female Actn3 knockout (KO) mice (2, 6, 12, and 18 months). Our findings support previous reports of a diminished influence of ACTN3 genotype on muscle performance in the

Immunosenescence - WikipediaImmunosenescence - Wikipedia
Immunosenescence refers to the gradual deterioration of the immune system brought on by natural age advancement. It involves both the hosts capacity to respond to infections and the development of long-term immune memory, especially by vaccination. This age-associated immune deficiency is ubiquitous and found in both long- and short-living species as a function of their age relative to life expectancy rather than chronological time. It is considered a major contributory factor to the increased frequency of morbidity and mortality among the elderly. Immunosenescence is not a random deteriorative phenomenon, rather it appears to inversely repeat an evolutionary pattern and most of the parameters affected by immunosenescence appear to be under genetic control. Immunosenescence can also be sometimes envisaged as the result of the continuous challenge of the unavoidable exposure to a variety of antigens such as viruses and bacteria. Immunosenescence is a multifactorial condition leading to many ...

Venous thromboembolism in pediatric patients: a single institution experience in KoreaVenous thromboembolism in pediatric patients: a single institution experience in Korea
The incidence of VTE is significantly lower in children compared with adults, suggesting the presence of protective mechanisms [11]. In children, the coagulation system develops with age, as evidenced by significant age-related differences in the concentration of most clotting factors, a concept known as developmental hemostasis [11].. In a nationwide epidemiologic study in the Korean population, the annual incidence of VTE in 2008 was reported as 13.8 cases per 100,000 individuals [12], which is significantly lower than the annual incidence noted for the Caucasian population (143 cases per 100,000 individuals) [13]. Furthermore, the incidence of VTE in Korean youth was even lower, with a reported 0.09 cases per 10,000 individuals aged 0-19 years [12].. In our study, the incidence of VTE was 3.27 cases per 10,000 pediatric patients. This rate was higher than the previously reported VTE incidence in the general Korean pediatric population but was lower than the incidence reported from Western ...

Alzheimers disease (Advertisement) can be an age-associated disease seen as a increased build up of extracellular -amyloid (A) plaques within the mind. a crucial developmental period at six months where cells remain in a position MK-2866 to connect to A fibrils but drop their capability to phagocytose it. and so are maintained inside a basally reactive phenotype [31C33]. Consequently, adult microglia instead of early postnatal microglia may provide a even more relevant model for determining the complete microglia-A conversation during disease. Many studies have recorded that acutely isolated adult microglia from rodent brains maintain a quiescent phenotype although long term culturing ultimately prospects to activation [23, 34C38]. To be able to better define whether an age-dependent switch in microglial A conversation is present, microglia acutely isolated from differing age group C57BL/6 mouse brains had been utilized to examine not merely degrees of putative A receptors, but moreover, ...

As PS1 is an integral protein of the γ-secretase complex, its stoichiometry may play an important role in balanced processing of APP. A decrease in PS1 (Refolo et al., 1999) or inactivation by mutations (Sudoh et al., 1998) may be associated with increased Aβ42. We had previously noticed an increase in APP as well as Aβ1-42 with age in SAMP8 mice (Morley et al., 2000), suggesting that a decrease in PS1 may cause increased aberrantγ -secretase activity. Accumulation of Aβ is attributed to loss of memory, as reduction of APP expression reverses this loss (Kumar et al., 2000). Therefore, reduction in APP expression is one of the pharmaceutical approaches to counter age-dependent or neurodegenerative disorders like AD that involve memory loss. Being an essential component of γ-secretase, PS1 is another therapeutic target for reducing Aβ formation. As SAMP8 mice have been shown to exhibit memory loss at a relatively early age (Flood and Morley, 1998; Miyamoto, 1997), we have studied the ...

Effects of dietary lipids on renal function of aged ratsEffects of dietary lipids on renal function of aged rats
As shown in Table 1, at 9 months of age, we observed a decline in GFR and renal plasma flow in the animals which ingested the lipid-rich diets, and in 18-month-old rats, the fish oil and butter groups showed a significant decrease in those parameters when compared to the control group at the same age; if corrected for kidney weight, these differences were still present; for example, GFR was 1.95 ± 0.11 in controls, 0.95 ± 0.04 in the butter group, 1.04 ± 0.17 in the fish oil group and 1.33 ± 0.29 ml min-1 g-1 in the canola oil group, confirming that the age-dependent decline in renal function was accelerated by the ingestion of LD. The complex mechanism by which lipids aggravate renal diseases is not well understood. Factors such as intraglomerular macrophage infiltration, increased glomerular capillary pressure and the degree of lipoprotein oxidation have been claimed to be major determinants of the progression of glomerulosclerosis (5-7). However, the controversy about the effects of ...

Translating autophagy proteins: a novel aging pathway - The Kennedy Institute of RheumatologyTranslating autophagy proteins: a novel aging pathway - The Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology
With extension of the average lifespan, the ageing population has become a heavy burden for both society and individuals. Immune responses, key for the removal of pathogens and damage, are compromised in the elderly, making the elderly more susceptible to infections. In addition immune senescence is a risk factor for many late-onset diseases, such as cancer and atherosclerosis. Autophagy through degrading bulk cytoplasmic material maintains cytoplasmic health and cellular homeostasis [1]. We have found that it allows differentiation of immune cells [2] [3]. In previous work we showed that loss of autophagy in macrophages results in low-grade inflammation (inflamm-aging) and reduces innate and adaptive immune responses, typical of a senescent immune system. Autophagy induction rejuvenates immune responses in the elderly in T cells [3]. We have recently uncovered a novel pathway that controls the translation of autophagy proteins in T and B lymphocytes. Lymphocytes from old mice and elderly humans ...

Background With increasing age neuromuscular deficits (e.g., sarcopenia) may result in impaired physical performance and an increased risk for falls. Prominent intrinsic fall-risk factors are age-related decreases in balance and strength / power performance as well as cognitive decline. Additional studies are needed to develop specifically tailored exercise programs for older adults that can easily be implemented into clinical practice. Thus, the objective of the present trial is to assess the effects of a fall prevention program that was developed by an interdisciplinary expert panel on measures of balance, strength / power, body composition, cognition, psychosocial well-being, and falls self-efficacy in healthy older adults. Additionally, the time-related effects of detraining are tested.. Methods/Design Healthy old people (N = 66) between the age of 65 to 80 years will participate in this trial. The testing protocol comprises tests for the assessment of static / dynamic steady-state balance ...

Welcome to Dr NiemandtWelcome to Dr Niemandt
What is it? The aging eye can be affected in many different ways. One of them being the formation of a cataract or clouding of the normal human crystalline lens. The other common age related change affecting the eye is called age related macular degeneration (AMD). This condition usually affects people in the 6th or 7th decade of life, but may occur in the younger population.. This condition affects the area at the back of the eye, responsible for the central part of the vision, the macula (see Eye anatomy). Degeneration, or breakdown of this part of the retina causes loss of central vision, and is one of the most common causes of legal blindness in South Africa, and the world. Most patients retain some form of peripheral vision, but overall prognosis in late / advanced AMD can be very poor.. What is DRY and WET AMD? Dry AMD is the more common form and is also referred to as atrophic or non-exudative AMD. There is formation of drusen beneath the macula that build up and eventually causes ...

Interplay of ionizing radiation, oxygen, ROS and age-associated diseasesInterplay of ionizing radiation, oxygen, ROS and age-associated diseases
The aim of this doctoral thesis was to investigate and to understand the implication of oxidative stress, created by the interplay of ionizing (X-ray) radiation, oxygen and neurotoxic amyloid beta (Aβ) peptide, in age-associated diseases, with the focus on Alzheimer´s disease (AD), the most common dementia. Although AD has been known for more than hundred years, its mechanisms are still intriguing and there is no cure at the moment. High doses of ionizing radiation (IR) lead to learning and memory impairment which is characteristic for AD as well. The cumulative doses of IR used in medical imaging procedures such as computed tomography (CT) and dental X-rays present a potential danger, particularly to children whose brains are not completely developed. Although single doses of radiation used for diagnostic purposes or therapeutic treatment are relatively low, small changes on the molecular and cellular level may accumulate upon repeated exposure and result in delayed long-term defects. Thus, ...

It is assumed that altered metabolism and functions of neurotrophin systems may underlie these age-related functional and structural modifications. CerebrolysinTM (CBL) is a neuropeptide mixture with neurotrophic effects, which is widely used for the treatment of stroke and traumatic brain injury patients. It is also evident that CBL has an overall beneficial effect and a favorable benefit-risk ratio in patients with dementia. However, the effects of CBL on cognition and brain neurotrophin system in normal aging remain obscure. Objective: The aim …of the present study was to examine the age-related modifications of endogenous neurotrophin systems in the ...

N2 - Senescent hearts exhibit structural and molecular changes that result in impaired function and are associated with diminished ability to meet increased demand. Both animal model studies and clinical investigations suggest that fibrosis is a hallmark of cardiac aging. Expansion of the cardiac interstitium and accumulation of collagen in the aging heart cause a progressive increase in ventricular stiffness, contributing to impaired diastolic function. Increased mechanical load due to increased vascular stiffness and direct activation of senescence-associated fibrogenic signals in the myocardium are implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiac fibrosis in the elderly. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), chemokine-mediated recruitment of mononuclear cells and fibroblast ...

To characterize strain dependence of age-related changes in nociception and spinal expression of Cav2 in mice, we evaluated nociceptive sensitivity and Cav2α1 mRNA expression in 2-month-old and 20-month-old mice of seven inbred strains (A/J, AKR/N, BALB/c, C3H/HeJ, C57BL6/J, DBA/2, 129/SvJ). In the hot plate test, 20-month-old C3H/HeJ showed reduced thermal nociceptive thresholds relative to 2-month-old mice, but no difference was observed between 2-month-old and 20-month-old mice of other strains. In the formalin paw test, there was no difference in licking/biting time in phase 1 between 2-month-old and 20-month-old animals of any strain, but the phase 2 responses in 20-month-old C3H/HeJ and DBA/2 were decreased compared with those of ...

JCI - The role of mitochondria in agingJCI - The role of mitochondria in aging
Analysis of mitochondrial function in tissues, such as the skeletal muscle of older subjects, reveals a decline in mitochondrial respiratory capacity to roughly 50% of what is seen in younger subjects and a reduction in ATP (63, 64). These mitochondrial deficits track closely with functional decline in muscle strength and are believed by most to be a causal factor for age-related sarcopenia (65). While, as mentioned above, in certain rare cases, accumulation of mtDNA mutations might contribute to this functional deficit, it is likely that other mechanisms are at play. An increase in the steady-state levels of dysfunction could be due to an increase in age-dependent damage to mitochondria, an age-dependent decline in the removal of dysfunctional mitochondria, or some combination of both mechanisms. The removal of damaged but intact mitochondria occurs through the process of mitophagy. We have already briefly discussed this process in the setting of inflammasome activation, where mitophagy, by ...
