Circulating Inflammatory, Mitochondrial Dysfunction, and Senescence-Related Markers in Older Adults with Physical Frailty and Sarcopenia: A BIOSPHERE Exploratory Study.

ABSTRACT: Multisystem derangements encompassing musculoskeletal, stress, and metabolic response have been described in older adults with physical frailty and sarcopenia (PF&S). Whether PF&S is also associated with markers of cellular senescence has yet to be explored. To address this research question, we quantified the serum levels of selected inflammatory, mitochondrial, and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP)-related factors in 22 older adults with PF&S (mean age 75.5 ± 4.7 years; 81.8% women) and 27 nonPF&S controls (mean age 75.0 ± 4.4 years; 62.9% women) and evaluated their association with PF&S. Markers of inflammation (interleukin (IL)1-β, IL6, and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α)), matrix remodeling (Serpin E1, intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), and tissue inhibi
