Abstract
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is more prevalent in men than in women, with endothelial dysfunction, prodromal to CAD, developing a decade earlier in middle-aged men. We investigated the molecular basis of this dimorphism ex vivo in arterial segments discarded during surgery of CAD patients. The results reveal a lower endothelial relaxant sensitivity in men, and a senescence-associated inflammaging transcriptomic signature in endothelial cells. In women, cellular metabolism and endothelial maintenance pathways are conserved. This suggests that senolytic therapies to reduce risk of cardiovascular events in women with CAD may not be as effective as in men.
期刊介绍:
JACC: Basic to Translational Science is an open access journal that is part of the renowned Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC). It focuses on advancing the field of Translational Cardiovascular Medicine and aims to accelerate the translation of new scientific discoveries into therapies that improve outcomes for patients with or at risk for Cardiovascular Disease. The journal covers thematic areas such as pre-clinical research, clinical trials, personalized medicine, novel drugs, devices, and biologics, proteomics, genomics, and metabolomics, as well as early phase clinical trial methodology.
