Current Understanding, New Research
and the Challenge of
Reducing the Health Care Impact of
Age-Related Cardiovascular Disease
Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Disease
• hypertension
• LDL/HDL cholesterol
• diabetes
• family history of CAD, gender
• excess alcohol, tobacco use
• physical inactivity
• obesity
• stress
• diet
• advanced age
Aging Involves Cardiac Remodeling
With Functional Adaptation
Independent of Disease
• Cell enlargement
• Cell rigidity
• Slower electrical properties
• More vulnerable to nutrient deprivation (ischemia)
• More vulnerable to heart attack (arrhythmia)
• Membrane protein and lipid function changed
(receptors, enzymes and signalling intermediates)
•More free radical injury, less protective antioxidants
(SOD, catalase, glutathione, vit E, Coenzyme Q10...)
•Less capable of hard work or recovery from stress
•Cell loss (death)
Consequences of Membrane Modification
Qualitative changes to
lipids, proteins, lipid-protein interactions
- receptors, channels, enzymes,
- intracellular signaling
- ion homeostasis
- energy metabolism
- altered membrane function “efficiency”
- augmented perturbation after stress & lost “reserve”
Carrier, i.e.,
ADP Translocase
Channels
Diet Is a Key Factor Involved in the
Reduced Incidence of Death From
Age-associated Diseases
From epidemiological studies of
Mediterranean, Japanese, Eskimo & other populations
Fish-rich (omega-3 fatty acids)
versus
Animal-rich (omega-6 fatty acids)
Dietary Antioxidants
Polyunsaturated fatty acids, PUFA
• long carbon chain (C>12, up to 24)
O

• degree of unsaturation (double bonds)

• 0= “saturated”, 1=“monounsaturated”

• omega-3 vs omega-6 : position of methyl group,
between 3 &4 vs 6 &7

Summary

omega -6/ omega -3 ratio is increased with age

Cardiolipin is significantly decreased with age whereas PC is
increased with age.

For the same level of contractile work, PDHA, and mito [Ca]2+
values are higher after omega -6 PUFA-rich diet and is
augmented by age.

omega-3 PUFA -rich diet attenuates ALL of these effects.
Conclusions

Manipulating cardiac membrane phospholipids and the
omega-3/ omega -6 PUFA ratio alters the flux of Ca2+
across the mitochondrial membrane and this may markedly
impact intramitochondrial Ca2+-dependent processes.
Conclusions
 Evidence for thermodynamic inefficiency in omega -6 PUFA
or aging compared to omega -3 PUFA
2+
 Potential for Ca overload after ischemia is greater and thus
more rapid onset of MPT opening and cell de-energization in
omega -6 PUFA or with aging vs omega -3 PUFA .
 Age-related reduction of cardiolipin augments this effect.

Conclusions
 4-HNE a marker of free radical-induced peroxidation of
omega-6 PUFA is increased in the post-ischemic
myocardium of senescent rats vs young, due to the agerelated differences in total omega-6 PUFA.
Conclusions
 Replacing membrane omega-6 PUFA with omega-3
PUFA reduces the amount of 4-HNE formed during
ischemia and reperfusion, abolishing age-associated
differences in 4HNE formation.
This may impact pathogenesis and the consequences of
cardiac ischemia.
What Governs Mitochondrial Survival?
Mitochondrial Membrane Permeability
Transition and the MPT pore
 Ca-dependent opening of a high-conductance channel in the inner
mitochondrial membrane -regulates membrane permeability
may cause loss of membrane potential & ATP
Mitochondrial Membrane Permeability
Transition and the MPT pore
 Both regulated by High CaM; Pi, long chain acyl CoA, spermine, ADP, ROS,
protein sulfhydryl and thiol group modification (after peroxidation)
AND CARDIOLIPIN!
 Collapse of the membrane potential leads to mitochondrial swelling,
rapid MPT and pore opening, Loss of ATP production results in cell
run down and death.
 MPT pore opening releases mitochondrial contents -incl cytochrome c
and can trigger caspase activation and the apoptotic cascade.
