Diaphragm muscles of young (4- to 6-mo-old) mdx mice show severe fiber necrosis and have normalized forces and powers 60 and 46% of the values for control C57BL/10 mice. In contrast, microinjection of mdx mouse embryos with a truncated dystrophin minigene has produced young transgenic mdx (tg-mdx) mice with a level of dystrophin expression and structural and functional properties of diaphragm muscle strips measured in vitro not different from those of control mice. Whether dystrophin expression and functional corrections persist for the life span of these animals is not know. We tested the nul

In this study, we determined the effects of age and chronic treadmill running (16 wk; 5 days/wk; 45 min/day; 18–22 m/min) on resident peritoneal macrophage responsiveness to interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in young (6 mo) and aged (22 mo) male BALB/cByJ mice by measuring cytolytic ability and production of reactive nitrogen products. Macrophages (>90% Mac-3+) were incubated with various concentrations of IFN-γ and LPS for 24 h. After washing, P815 tumor cells were utilized as targets in a 16-h51Cr release assay.

Abstract Urinary bladder dysfunction is rarely spontaneously reported by sickle cell disease (SCD) patients to their caregivers. With increasing survival of these patients, physicians may expect that urinary complaints increase in association with classical urological disorders associated with advanced age. Nocturia has long been attributed to constant increased urinary volumes in SCD. As part of the renal complications of sickling, renal medullary infarcts lead to decreased ability to concentrate urine, yielding higher daily urinary volumes, compensatory polydipsia and, eventually, the need f

Abstract Aging-associated changes negatively influence T cell responses. Since we previously observed that the memory CD8 T cells generated in aged mice have substantially reduced proliferative expansion upon secondary infection, we wanted to investigate if observed defects of memory T cells are due to the age of the cell or the age of the host when primed. Briefly, virus-specific memory T cells were generated by infecting young mice, aged mice or by infecting mice when they were young, but then allowing these mice to age for 2 years. T cells from these three groups were adoptively transferred

Obesity in old age may result in a poor basement membrane (BM) construction response, which serves to protect the skeletal muscle, thus making the skeletal muscle more vulnerable. In this study, older and young male C57BL/6J mice were divided into two groups, each fed a high-fat or regular diet for eight weeks. A high-fat diet decreased the relative gastrocnemius muscle weight in both age groups, and obesity and aging individually result in a decline in muscle function.

With respect to HSC aging, our prior work showed that, in contrast to the well-known reduced functional capacity and prominent myeloid skewing displayed by old immunophenotypically-defined HSCs, old

We hypothesize that aging increases heritable epigenetic heterogeneity, leading to transcriptome heterogeneity within hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC). This resulting heterogenous state, combined with the aged microenvironment-driven selection, shifts the functional capacity of the hematopoietic system, contributing to the functional decline of the hematopoietic system as well as the evolution of diseases such as myelodysplastic syndrome and leukemias.
