Early cardiac ageing: Phenotypic and transcriptional transitions in young to middle-aged mice


ABSTRACT: While much research has focussed on advanced stages (and mechanisms) of ageing, this fundamental process may commence at a relatively early age, impacting organ function and resilience throughout the adult lifespan. In male C57BL/6 mice, multiple phenotypic and transcriptional features of cardiovascular ageing were evident from 16 weeks of age, well in advance of 'middle age'. Phenotypic changes include declining cardiac and coronary reserves and resistance to ischaemic insult. Gene changes support early constitutive stress together with a plateau in transcriptome responsiveness to ischaemia, and declining induction of cardioprotective and quality control pathways vs. increasing induction of genes promoting signalling dysfunction, hypertrophy and cell death. These findings support cardiac ageing from early adulthood. Molecular changes reflect declining adaptive capacity/quality control, consistent with evolutionary theories of biological ageing.
