Diminished nitric oxide-cGMP-mediated relaxation plays a crucial role in cardiovascular aging, leading to decreased vasodilation, vascular hypertrophy and stiffening, and ultimately, cardiovascular dysfunction. Aging is the time-related worsening of physiologic function due to complex cellular and molecular interactions, and it is at least partly driven by DNA damage. Genetic deletion of the DNA repair enzyme ERCC1 endonuclease in mice provides us an efficient tool to accelerate vascular aging, explore mechanisms, and test potential treatments.
