  4. Aging : What matters? 45 yr IT professional Arteries are 70 yr old 70 yr Athlete Arteries are 45 yr old Chronological age is different from biological age

  5. Atherothrombosis Significantly Shortens Life Atherothrombosis reduces life expectancy by around 8-12 years in patients aged over 60 years1 Average Remaining Life Expectancy at Age 60 (Men) 20 -7.4 years 16 -9.2 years -12 years 12 Years 8 4 0 Healthy History of Cardiovascular Disease History of AMI History of Stroke Analysis of data from the Framingham Heart Study. Peeters A, et al. Eur Heart J. 2002;23:458-466.

  6. Vascular age • Vascular age is the apparent age of the blood vessels, particularly the arteries when compared to what is normal for the healthy population • Vascular age is affected by genetic predisposition, lifestyle choices and other factors

  7. PLAN 1. Introduction 2. Normal vascular anatomy and physiology 3. What is vascular aging? 4. What causes it? 5. How to diagnose it? 6. How to treat and prevent it? 7. Takeaways

  8. THE ARTERIAL SYSTEM • These are the main conducting vessels carrying blood away from the heart • Can be muscular or elastic. There is a gradual transition between these two types

  9. Elastic Arteries • Are characterised by a predominance of elastin in the tunica media and little smooth muscle • Are found just downstream from the heart • Undergo expansion with each systole of the heart • On relaxation of the heart the elastic recoil of the wall helps propel blood through the blood vessels • Include the aorta, pulmonary, common carotid and other major vessels

  10. Muscular Arteries • These are medium sized to smaller arteries • Are characterised by a predominance of smooth muscle cells in the tunica media • Make up the main distributing branches of the arterial tree, eg. the femoral, radial, coronary and cerebral arteries • Remember, there is a gradual transition between elastic and muscular arteries.

Increases vascular afterload with a propensity to develop LVH Decreases coronary perfusion pressure Increases myocardial oxygen demand and subendocardial ischemia Increases flow turbulence, endothelial dysfunction and atherogenesis Increases in pulsatile strain and chance of plaque rupture All recognized by a wide brachial artery pulse pressure in the elderly Elderly stiff arteries with ISH : Increased PW velocity (12 m/sec) Normal Arterial Pulsation Young compliant arteries :Normal PW velocity (8 m/sec) Diastole Systole Cushion Conduit (1) Ventricular-Vascular coupling (2)  coronary blood flow Forward wave Systole Reflected Wave (1) Ventricular-vascular mismatch (2) The reflected wave increases or “augments” central SBP during late systole:

  14. Conduit function – Role of Endothelium Tunica adventitia Tunica media Tunica intima Endothelium Subendothelial connective tissue Internal elastic membrane Smooth muscle cells Elastic/collagen fibers External elastic membrane

  15. Normal Endothelium The endothelium is the gatekeeper of the vasculature and a major regulator of vascular tone and hemostasis It Provides a smooth, non-thrombogenic surface and a selectively permeability barrier between the circulation and the vessel wall. Regulates vascular tone and produces • Endogenous vasodilators and vasoconstrictors. • Growth promoting and growth inhibiting factors. • Anticoagulants and Procoagulants. Retards platelet and leucocyte adhesion Inhibits VSMC migration & proliferation Barrier to LDL, degrade VLDL & chylotriglyceride Adapted from Ormolgul and Dzau, J Vasc Med Biol., 1991, 282-301, Pepine, C., et. al., “Vascular Health as as Therapeutic Target in Cardiovascular Disease,” VBW , University of Florida, 1998 Atomic force micrograph frpm Barbara et al, Am J Physiol [Heart Care Physiol.], 1995; 266: H1765-H1772

  16. Normal Arterial Function • Cushion function – mainly by Aorta; prevents transmission of systolic pressure to the periphery , slows systolic velocity and maintains continuous flow in distributing arteries and arterioles • Conduit function – Mainly by arteries and their endothelium ; prevents atheroma, plaque, thrombus formation to provide continuous and uninterrupted blood flow to the organs
