| Outline of Research at the Start |
To determine whether vascular aging in diabetes is caused by early inflammation and oxidative stress that develops in heart muscle cells and immune cells. In addition, we aim to identify whether vascular aging is then exacerbated by aging of cells lining our blood vessels due to inactivity.

| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Metabolome analyses of myocardium from senescence accelerated mice (SAMP8) and resistance mice (SAMR1) on a high fat diet (HFD) revealed that in SAMP8 mice glycolysis was inhibited and abnormal purine metabolism increased xanthine oxidase (XO) activation and ROS generation relative to SAMR1 mice. While antioxidant GSH was upregulated and L-arginine availability was maintained in the HFD SAMP8 mouse hearts we found that eNOS phosphorylation at Ser1177 was downregulated in SAMP8 and upregulated in SAMR1 on the HFD. Notably, this resulted in reduced coronary microvessel perfusion (microangiography), but not macrovessels in the HFD SAMP8 mice. Importantly, high intensity exercise training for 8wks restored microvessel perfusion in the HFD SAMP8 through an increased NO contribution.
