🧠💓 Just read a fascinating new study in Cell Metabolism (July 2025): dislocation of hexokinase 1 from mitochondria increases O-GlcNAcylation in endothelial cells — a hidden driver of HFpEF!   Reversing this sugar-tagging with OGA overexpression or OGT inhibition restores heart function in mice. Precision metabolism meets cardiology. 🔬❤️‍🔥   #HFpEF #OGlcNAcylation #EndothelialDysfunction #CardioResearch #MetabolicTherapeutics #CellMetabolism

🫀 The Heart Ages—But Can We Intervene?

 

New insights from Nature Reviews Cardiology highlight how endothelial dysfunction, inflammageing, CHIP, and senescence-associated secretory phenotypes (SASP) drive cardiovascular ageing. Promising interventions—from gerotherapeutic diets and exercise to NAD+ boosters, senolytics, and ACBP neutralization—may help delay decline and promote resilience.

 

💡 Can we target the biology of ageing to extend cardiovascular healthspan, not just lifespan?

 

👇 Join the conversation: Which intervention holds the most promise—and what are the biggest challenges in translating this to clinical practice?
