摘要

Cardiac aging is a multistep process that results in a loss of various structural and functional heart abilities, increasing the risk of heart disease. Since its remarkable discovery in the early 1800s, when limestone is heated, calcium’s importance has been defined in numerous ways. It can help stiffen shells and bones, function as a reducing agent in chemical reactions, and play a central role in cellular signalling. The movement of calcium ions in and out of cells and between those is referred to as calcium signalling. It influences the binding of the ligand, enzyme activity, electrochemical gradients, and other cellular processes. Calcium signalling is critical for both contraction and relaxation under the sliding filament model of heart muscle. However, with age, the heart undergoes changes that lead to increases in cardiac dysfunction, such as myocardial fibrosis, decreased cardiomyocyte function, and noxious disturbances in calcium homeostasis. Additionally, when cardiac tissues age, cellular senescence, a state of irreversible cell cycle arrest, accumulates and begins to exacerbate tissue inflammation and fibrosis. This review explores the most recent discoveries regarding the role of senescent cell accumulation and calcium signalling perturbances in cardiac aging. Additionally, new treatment strategies are used to reduce aged-related heart dysfunction by targeting senescent cells and modulating calcium homeostasis.
