Abstract: | Aging is characterized by alterations in neuro-cardiovascular regulatory mechanisms, leading to impaired physiological variability patterns. Repeated evidence has shown that increased Blood Pressure Variability (BPV) is associated with organ damage and exerts independent predictive value on several health outcomes: cardiovascular events, neurocognitive impairment, metabolic disorders and typical geriatric syndromes such as sarcopenia and frailty. Accordingly, it may constitute the epiphenomenon of the alterations in homeostatic mechanisms, typical of late life.Aging and altered BPV share the same molecular mechanisms, in particular the clinical state of subclinical inflammation has been widely ascertained in advanced age and it is also related to BP dysregulation through altered endothelial function and increased production of ROS. Arterial stiffness and autonomic dysfunction have been associated to impairment in BPV and also represent key features in elderly patients. Furthermore, accumulating evidence in the field of Geroscience has reported that several molecular changes described in cardiovascular aging and altered BPV also relate with the majority of the 9 identified hallmarks of aging. Indeed, BPV may be linked to genomic instability, epigenetic modification and mitochondrial oxidative damage, which represent milestones of aging process.The aim of the present paper is to analyse the interplay between BPV and the pathophysiology of the ageing process, in order to stimulate discussion about the potential role of BPV as a new marker of aging. |
