Key result

Sex-specific cardiac aging mechanisms drive age-related heart disease susceptibility and necessitate tailored therapeutic approaches.

Why the study?

Understanding how sex-specific differences in cardiac aging are established and regulated remains limited, despite their contribution to age-related heart disease and differential stress responses.

Population
Cardiac aging

This review highlights the mechanisms and implications of sex-specific cardiac aging and emphasizes the need for sex-specific therapeutic approaches in heart disease.

Cite This Study

Yusifov et al. (2022) conducted a review in Cardiac aging. This review highlights the mechanisms of sex-specific cardiac aging, its role in age-related heart disease susceptibility, and the need for sex-specific therapeutic approaches.
