No female animal models of early stage remodelling (pre-HFpEF) have examined the effects that the convergence of such factors have on cardiac structure and function. In this study, we demonstrate that ageing can lead to the development of mild chamber remodelling, diffuse fibrosis and loss of diastolic function.

The consumption of cocoa products rich in (-)-epicatechin is associated with reduced cardiovascular risk and improved vascular function. However, little is known about (-)-epicatechin's effects on aged endothelium. In order to characterize the health restoring effects of (-)-epicatechin on aged endothelium and identify the underlying mechanisms, we utilized high passage number (i.
