However, many studies have now confirmed that exogenous administration of GDF11 can improve physiology in disease models, including cardiac fibrosis, experimental stroke, and disordered metabolism. GDF11 is similar to GDF8 (also called Myostatin), differing only by 11 amino acids in their mature signaling domains. These two proteins are now known to be biochemically different both in vitro and in vivo . GDF11 is much more potent than GDF8 and induces more strongly SMAD2 phosphorylation in the myocardium compared to GDF8. GDF8 and GDF11 prodomain are only 52% identical and are cleaved by different Tolloid proteases to liberate the mature signaling domain from inhibition of the prodomain. Here, we review the state of GDF11 biology, highlighting both resolved and remaining controversies.","PeriodicalId":75051,"journal":{"name":"The journal of cardiovascular aging","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135667171","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stratton","doi":"10.20517/jca.2023.26","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.20517/jca.2023.26","url":null,"abstract":"Introduction: Mice harboring a D257A mutation in the proofreading domain of the mitochondrial DNA polymerase, Polymerase Gamma (POLG), experience severe metabolic dysfunction and display hallmarks of accelerated aging. We previously reported a mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPTmt) - like (UPRmt-like) gene and protein expression pattern in the right ventricular tissue of POLG mutant mice. Aim: We sought to determine if POLG mutation altered the expression of genes encoded by the mitochondria in a way that might also reduce proteotoxic stress. Methods and Results: The expression of genes encoded by the mitochondrial DNA was interrogated via RNA-seq and northern blot analysis. A striking, location-dependent effect was seen in the expression of mitochondrial-encoded tRNAs in the POLG mutant as assayed by RNA-seq. These expression changes were negatively correlated with the tRNA partner amino acid’s amyloidogenic potential. Direct measurement by northern blot was conducted on candidate mt-tRNAs identified from the RNA-seq. This analysis confirmed reduced expression of MT-TY in the POLG mutant but failed to show increased expression of MT-TP, which was dramatically increased in the RNA-seq data. Conclusion: We conclude that reduced expression of amyloid-associated mt-tRNAs is another indication of adaptive response to severe mitochondrial dysfunction in the POLG mutant. Incongruence between RNA-seq and northern blot measurement of MT-TP expression points towards the existence of mt-tRNA post-transcriptional modification regulation in the POLG mutant that alters either polyA capture or cDNA synthesis in RNA-seq library generation. Together, these data suggest that 1) evolution has distributed mt-tRNAs across the circular mitochondrial genome to allow chromosomal location-dependent mt-tRNA regulation (either by expression or PTM) and 2) this regulation is cognizant of the tRNA partner amino acid’s amyloidogenic properties.","PeriodicalId":75051,"journal":{"name":"The journal of cardiovascular aging","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135884211","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Defects in autophagy can lead to increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress from impaired mitochondrial clearance by mitophagy. These defects are commonly associated with chronic human diseases such as cancer, myocardial infarction, neurodegenerative diseases, and aging. Aim: Herein, we show that the gene Retinoic Acid-Related Orphan Receptors α (Rora ) is cardioprotective through modulation of autophagy and clearance of damaged ROS-producing mitochondria in cardiac myocytes. Methods and results: We show that RORα is downregulated during hypoxia, leading to increased death of cardiac cells and enhanced mitochondrial perturbations. We demonstrate that the small molecule Nobiletin, a polymethoxy flavonoid, can induce RORα activation and downregulate the aging-associated marker p16, coincident with reduced ROS-producing mitochondria. We further show that Nobiletin binds directly to the Rora gene promoter, leading to activation of autophagic function and increased cell survival of cardiac myocytes during hypoxia. Interestingly, loss of RORα activity during hypoxia resulted in the failure of Nobiletin to rescue autophagy and inhibits its capacity for cardiac protection. Furthermore, the inactivation of autophagy by ATG7 knockdown abrogated the cytoprotective effects of Nobiletin on autophagic activation. Conclusion: Collectively, these results demonstrate that RORα regulates autophagic processes linked to aging upon activation with Nobiletin. Interventions that activate RORα may prove beneficial in reducing hypoxia-induced mitochondrial ROS associated with cardiac aging.","PeriodicalId":75051,"journal":{"name":"The journal of cardiovascular aging","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135992785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aim: The purpose of this study was to determine the association between increased INR and the usage of warfarin by using the pharmacovigilance data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Methods: The ADEs in patients who took warfarin (N = 77,010) were analyzed using FAERS data. Association rule mining was applied to identify warfarin-related ADEs that were most associated with elevated INR (n = 15,091) as well as possible drug-drug interactions (DDIs) associated with increased INR. Lift values were used to identify ADEs that were most commonly reported alongside elevated INR based on the correlation between both item sets. In addition, this study sought to determine if the increased INR risk was influenced by sex, age, temporal distribution, and geographic distribution and were reported as reporting odds ratios (RORs). Results: The top 5 ADEs most associated with increased INR in patients taking warfarin were decreased hemoglobin (lift = 2.31), drug interactions (lift = 1.88), hematuria (lift = 1.58), asthenia (lift = 1.44), and fall (lift = 1.32). INR risk increased as age increased, with individuals older than 80 having a 63% greater likelihood of elevated INR compared to those younger than 50. Males were 9% more likely to report increased INR as an ADE compared to females. Individuals taking warfarin concomitantly with at least one other drug were 43% more likely to report increased INR. The top 5 most frequently identified DDIs in patients taking warfarin and presenting with elevated INR were acetaminophen (lift = 1.81), ramipril (lift = 1.71), furosemide (lift = 1.64), bisoprolol (lift = 1.58), and simvastatin (lift = 1.58). Conclusion: The risk of elevated INR increased as patient age increased, particularly among those older than 80. Elevated INR frequently co-presented with decreased hemoglobin, drug interactions, hematuria, asthenia, and fall in patients taking warfarin. This effect may be less pronounced in women due to the procoagulatory effects of estrogen signaling. Multiple possible DDIs were identified, including acetaminophen, ramipril, and furosemide.","PeriodicalId":75051,"journal":{"name":"The journal of cardiovascular aging","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135945028","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
