In recent years, lactylation and methylation, two metabolism-dependent epigenetic modifications, have garnered increasing attention in the context of myocardial aging. Lactylation, mediated by lactate accumulation due to metabolic dysregulation, modifies lysine residues on both histone and non-histone proteins, thereby participating in the regulation of gene transcription, metabolic homeostasis, and inflammatory responses. In parallel, methylation affects gene expression, metabolic remodeling, and mitochondrial function through DNA, RNA, and histone modifications. This review systematically summarizes the regulatory mechanisms of lactylation and methylation in myocardial aging, with a particular focus on their interplay in histone and non-histone protein modification, metabolic regulation, and signaling pathway integration. Furthermore, we evaluate the potential of these reversible modifications as early epigenetic biomarkers and discuss multilayered intervention strategies targeting both lactylation and methylation. Such strategies highlight their translational potential in delaying myocardial aging and mitigating cardiovascular disease. Precisely modulating lactylation and methylation may offer novel theoretical frameworks and therapeutic targets for the prevention and treatment of myocardial aging.</p>","PeriodicalId":93862,"journal":{"name":"Ageing research reviews","volume":" ","pages":"102849"},"PeriodicalIF":12.4,"publicationDate":"2025-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144765808","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}

T2DM is a chronic and globally prevalent condition characterized by insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and cerebrovascular dysfunction, factors that collectively contribute to cognitive decline. Notably, T2DM is strongly associated with neurodegenerative conditions, ranging from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to dementia. This review explores the potential neuroprotective effects of various antidiabetic drugs, including insulin-sensitizing agents (metformin and pioglitazone), sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is). These medications exert their effects through multiple mechanisms, such as reducing neuroinflammation and oxidative stress, decreasing Aβ accumulation and apoptosis, enhancing cerebral glucose metabolism, and promoting neuroplasticity, processes directly implicated in the interplay between T2DM and cognitive decline. The review highlights the therapeutic potential of these agents in mitigating CI and supporting brain health in individuals with T2DM. However, given the conflicting nature of current clinical evidence, further research is needed to clarify their cognitive benefits, elucidate underlying mechanisms of action, and assess their long-term effects on cognitive outcomes in this population.</p>","PeriodicalId":93862,"journal":{"name":"Ageing research reviews","volume":" ","pages":"102834"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144638819","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}

The RELN-COLBOS variant enhances interactions with the apolipoprotein E receptor 2 (ApoER2) and very-low-density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR), which are associated with delayed AD onset and progression. These findings were validated in a transgenic mouse model. Reelin is involved in neurodevelopment, neurogenesis, and neuronal plasticity. The evidence accumulated thus far has demonstrated that the Reelin pathway links apolipoprotein E4 (ApoE4), amyloid-β (Aβ), and tubulin-associated unit (Tau), which are key proteins that have been implicated in AD pathogenesis.
