Abstract
HIV infection and antiretroviral therapy alter mitochondrial function, which can progressively lead to mitochondrial damage and accelerated aging. The interaction between persistent HIV reservoirs and mitochondria may provide insight into the relatively high rates of cardiovascular disease and mortality in persons living with HIV. In this review, we explore the intricate relationship between HIV and mitochondrial function, highlighting the potential for novel therapeutic strategies in the context of cardiovascular diseases. We reflect on mitochondrial dynamics, mitochondrial DNA, and mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein in the context of HIV. Furthermore, we summarize how toxicities related to early antiretroviral therapy and current highly active antiretroviral therapy can contribute to mitochondrial dysregulation, chronic inflammation, and poor clinical outcomes. There is a need to understand the mechanisms and develop new targeted therapies. We further consider current and potential future therapies for HIV and their interplay with mitochondria. We reflect on the next-generation antiretroviral therapies and HIV cure due to the direct and indirect effects of HIV persistence, associated comorbidities, coinfections, and the advancement of interdisciplinary research fields. This includes exploring novel and creative approaches to target mitochondria for therapeutic intervention.

Elevating the significance of legume intake: A novel strategy to counter aging-related mitochondrial dysfunction and physical decline. Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf 2024; 23:e13342.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction increasingly becomes a target for promoting healthy aging and longevity. The dysfunction of mitochondria with age ultimately leads to a decline in physical functions. Among them, biogenesis dysfunction and the imbalances in the metabolism of reactive oxygen species and mitochondria as signaling organelles in the aging process have aroused our attention. Dietary intervention in mitochondrial dysfunction and physical decline during aging processes is essential, and greater attention should be directed toward healthful legume intake. Legumes are constantly under investigation for their nutritional and bioactive properties, and their consumption may yield antiaging and mitochondria-protecting benefits. This review summarizes mitochondrial dysfunction with age, discusses the benefits of legumes on mitochondrial function, and introduces the potential role of legumes in managing aging-related physical decline. Additionally, it reveals the benefits of legume intake for the elderly and offers a viable approach to developing legume-based functional food.

Abstract
Cardiac aging is a multifaceted process that encompasses structural and functional alterations culminating in heart failure. As the elderly population continues to expand, there is a growing urgent need for interventions to combat age-related cardiac functional decline. Noncoding RNAs have emerged as critical regulators of cellular and biochemical processes underlying cardiac disease. This review summarizes our current understanding of how noncoding RNAs function in the heart during aging, with particular emphasis on mechanisms of RNA modification that control their activity. Targeting noncoding RNAs as potential novel therapeutics in cardiac aging is also discussed.

Cumulative Deleterious Effects of Tetrahydrocannabinoid (THC) and Ethanol on Mitochondrial Respiration and Reactive Oxygen Species Production Are Enhanced in Old Isolated Cardiac Mitochondria. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:1835. [PMID: 38339113 PMCID: PMC10855679 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25031835] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Delta 9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the main component of cannabis, has adverse effects on the cardiovascular system, but whether concomitant ethanol (EtOH) and aging modulate its toxicity is unknown. We investigated dose responses of THC and its vehicle, EtOH, on mitochondrial respiration and reactive oxygen production in both young and old rat cardiac mitochondria (12 and 90 weeks). THC dose-dependently impaired mitochondrial respiration in both groups, and such impairment was enhanced in aged rats (-97.5 ± 1.4% vs. -75.6 ± 4.0% at 2 × 10-5 M, and IC50: 0.7 ± 0.05 vs. 1.3 ± 0.1 × 10-5 M, p < 0.01, for old and young rats, respectively). The EtOH-induced decrease in mitochondrial respiration was greater in old rats (-50.1 ± 2.4% vs. -19.8 ± 4.4% at 0.9 × 10-5 M, p < 0.0001). Further, mitochondrial hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production was enhanced in old rats after THC injection (+46.6 ± 5.3 vs. + 17.9 ± 7.8%, p < 0.01, at 2 × 10-5 M). In conclusion, the deleterious cardiac effects of THC were enhanced with concomitant EtOH, particularly in old cardiac mitochondria, showing greater mitochondrial respiration impairment and ROS production. These data improve our knowledge of the mechanisms potentially involved in cannabis toxicity, and likely support additional caution when THC is used by elderly people who consume alcohol.
