Current themes in myocardial and coronary vascular aging
2018
Advancing age will affect every individual and its impact on cardiac health deserves significant attention. The age-related physiological changes occurring in the coronary vasculature, myocardium, and valves set the stage upon which cardiovascular disease can escalate in the elderly population. The overall focus of this review is to highlight new and noteworthy studies and to incorporate reviews related to cardiac senescence in the context of the current state of the field. Lastly, future directions in the field of cardiac aging and the development of novel therapeutics to treat pathophysiological conditions typically associated with advancing age will be discussed.
