- W2045159593 abstract "Our electron microscopic study of aging insects and mammals suggests that metazoan senescence is linked to a gradual process of mitochondrial breakdown (and lipofuscin accumulation) in fixed postmitotic cells. This led us to propose in the early 1980s an oxyradical-mitochondrial DNA damage hypothesis, according to which metazoan aging may be caused by mutation, inactivation or loss of the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) in irreversibly differentiated cells. This extranuclear somatic gene mutation concept of aging is in agreement with the fact that mtDNA synthesis takes place at the inner mitochondrial membrane near the sites of formation of highly reactive oxygen species and their products. Mitochondrial DNA may be unable to counteract the damage inflicted by those by-products of respiration because, in contrast to the nuclear genome, it lacks excision and recombination repair. Since mtDNA contains the structural genes for 13 hydrophobic proteins of the respiratory chain and ATP synthase as well as mitochondrial rRNAs and tRNAs, damage to this organellar genome will decrease or prevent the ‘rejuvenation’ of the mitochondria through the process of macromolecular turnover and organelle fission. Thus deprived of the ability to regenerate their mitochondria, the fixed postmitotic cells will sustain a decrease in the number of functional organelles, with resulting decline in ATP production. At higher levels of biological organization, this will lead to a loss in the bioenergetic capacity of cells, with concomitant decreases in ATP dependent protein synthesis and specialized physiological function, thus paving the way for age related degenerative diseases. The above concept is supported by a wealth of recent observations confirming the genomic instability of mitochondria and suggesting that animal and human aging is accompanied by mtDNA deletions and other types of injury to the mitochondrial genome. Our hypothesis of mtDNA damage is integrated with the classic concepts of Weissman and Minot in order to provide a preliminary explanation of the evolutionary roots of aging and reconcile the programed and stochastic views of metazoan senescene." @default.
