90 Accumulation of DNA damage 10090 age DNA damage accumulates with age in mouse hematopoietic stem cells [32 in Lauri et al. 2012].
40 Accumulation of lipofuscin-like fluorescent pigment 6239 Apfeld et al., 2004 15574588 intestine Age 1 day 7 day Hemaphrodite A lipofuscin-like fluorescent pigment accumulates in an age-dependent manner in the intestine (Garigan et al., 2002; Herndon et al., 2002). It accumulates at a faster rate in aak-2 mutant, which have a shortened lifespan [15574588].
127 Accumulation of long-chain glycosphingolipids 10090 21687659 kidney age 17 month 3 month Measurement of sphingolipid profiles in young (3 months), middle aged (9 moths) and old (17 months) C57BL/6 mice in kidney reveals a dramatic elevations in long-chain hexosylceramides (HexCer) and lactosylceramides, with C14- and C16-lactosylcermaides (LacCers) elevated as much as 8 and 12-fold, respectively. Similar changes occur in liver and brain. DR prevents the decline in kidney function, inhibits the accumulation of long-chain HexCer/LacCers and and also prevents the age-associated elevation of enzymes involved in their synthesis [21687659].

Similar changes occur in kidney and brain [21687659].

39 AMP/ATP increases 6239 Apfeld et al., 2004 15574588 whole body Age 4 day 18 day Hemaphrodite AMP/ATP ratio in living animals increases from <0.1 at day 4 of adulthood to 0.8 at day 18 (an age near the maximum lifespan of the population). Linear regression indicates a strong correlation between AMP/ATP ratio and life expectancy.
131 Arterial walls stiffen with age López-Andrés et al. 2012 23172930 Age-associated changes in blood vessels include the increase in inflammatory response, cell loss, inability to repair DNA damage, oncogene activation and regulation of telomere-telomerase complex [9-11]. Several age-associated structural, functional, and molecular changes occur in the arterial system. Aging is accompanied with thickening and dilatation of large arteries, extracellular matrix accumulation, calcium deposits, increased vascular stiffness, and endothelial dysfunction [12,13]. These alterations may be attributable to age-related functional changes in vascular cells [12]. Age-related arterial inflammatory phenotype includes increased expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, intercellular adhesion molecule 1, matrix metalloproteinase-2 activity, or transforming growth factor-β expression [14,15]. Age-associated changes in blood vessels include a decrease in compliance, and increase in arterial stiffness and arterial wall thickening as a result of increased vascular calcifications, increased collagen content and cross-linking, and decreased elastin content [16,18].

67 Bone loss 10090 13678781 bone age 42 week 104 week male In young mice the rapid growth is marked by substantial increase in bone size, mineral mass and mechanical properties. Maturation occurring between 12 and 42 weeks of age was characterized with the maintenance of bone mass and mechanical properties. From the peak levels, mice aged for 104 weeks exhibited decreased whole femur mass, percentage of mineralization diminished whole bone stiffness, energy to fracture and decreased cortical thickness. Periosteal perimeter and, consequently the cross-sectional moments of inertia continued to increase through 104 weeks, compensating for cortical thinning and increased brittleness due to decreased mineralization and stiffness. The shape of the mid-diaphysis became increasingly less elliptical in aged mice. After 52 weeks excessive endocortical resorption appeared, indicating a shift in normal mechanisms regulating bone shape and locating, suggestive of remodelling [13678781].

86 Clonal mosicaism frequency increases 9505 Hunter et al. 2012 blood 50 79 female/male Detectable clonal mosaicism frequency in peripheral blood is low (<0.5 %) from birth until 50 years of age, after which it rapidley rises to 2-3% in the elderly. The frequency of mosic abnormalities increases with age, from 0.23% under 50 years to 1.91% between 75 and 79 years [Hunter et al. 2012].
