- Project Summary**:
During aging, the heart displays a lower tolerance to exercise and stress, the severity of which determines
the onset of heart failure (HF), a leading cause of death and disability worlwide. Reduced mitochondrial
respiratory function is a common mechanism underlying cardiac energy deficiency during both aging and
HF. Our group has identified dicarbonyl stress (the accumulation of toxic metabolic intermediates due to a
deficient detoxification system) as a prominent cause of mitochondrial dysfunction in the aged heart.
Dicarbonyl damage to target proteins cannot be removed therapeutically and tend to accumulate within
cells. In the present project, we hypothesize that mitochondrial dysfunction secondary to the accumulation
of dicarbonyl-induced damage triggers the development of cardiomyocyte senescence, a pathologic
phenotypic transformation characterized by profound metabolic and secretome changes that has
deleterious consequences on neighboring cells by paracrine mechanisms. We propose the use of senolytic
drugs as an innovative therapy to protect the aging heart against
