Abstract
Recent advances in microphysiological systems (MPS), also known as organs-on-a-chip (OoC), enable the recapitulation of more complex organ and tissue functions on a smaller scale in vitro. MPS therefore provide the potential to better understand human diseases and physiology. To date, numerous MPS platforms have been developed for various tissues and organs, including the heart, liver, kidney, blood vessels, muscle, and adipose tissue. However, only a few studies have explored using MPS platforms to unravel the effects of aging on human physiology and the pathogenesis of age-related diseases. Age is one of the risk factors for many diseases, and enormous interest has been devoted to aging research. As such, a human MPS aging model could provide a more predictive tool to understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying human aging and age-related diseases. These models can also be used to evaluate preclinical drugs for age-related diseases and translate them into clinical settings. Here, we provide a review on the application of MPS in aging research. First, we offer an overview of the molecular, cellular, and physiological changes with age in several tissues or organs. Next, we discuss previous aging models and the current state of MPS for studying human aging and age-related conditions. Lastly, we address the limitations of current MPS and present future directions on the potential of MPS platforms for human aging research.

The physiologic complexity of beat-to-beat blood pressure is associated with age-related alterations in blood pressure regulation. Aging Cell 2024; 23:e13943.

Abstract
The fluctuations in resting-state beat-to-beat blood pressure (BP) are physiologically complex, and the degree of such BP complexity is believed to reflect the multiscale regulation of this critical physiologic process. Hypertension (HTN), one common age-related condition, is associated with altered BP regulation and diminished system responsiveness to perturbations such as orthostatic change. We thus aimed to characterize the impact of HTN on resting-state BP complexity, as well as the relationship between BP complexity and both adaptive capacity and underlying vascular characteristics. We recruited 392 participants (age: 60-91 years), including 144 that were normotensive and 248 with HTN (140 controlled- and 108 uncontrolled-HTN). Participants completed a 10-min continuous finger BP recording during supine rest, then underwent measures of lying-to-standing BP change, arterial stiffness (i.e., brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity), and endothelial function (i.e., flow-mediated vasodilation). The complexity of supine beat-to-beat systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) BP was quantified using multiscale entropy. Thirty participants with HTN (16 controlled-HTN and 14 uncontrolled-HTN) exhibited orthostatic hypotension. SBP and DBP complexity was greatest in normotensive participants, lower in those with controlled-HTN, and lowest in those in uncontrolled-HTN (p < 0.0005). Lower SBP and DBP complexity correlated with greater lying-to-standing decrease in SBP and DBP level (β = -0.33 to -0.19, p < 0.01), greater arterial stiffness (β = -0.35 to -0.18, p < 0.01), and worse endothelial function (β = 0.17-0.22, p < 0.01), both across all participants and within the control- and uncontrolled-HTN groups. These results suggest that in older adults, BP complexity may capture the integrity of multiple interacting physiologic mechanisms that regulate BP and are important to cardiovascular health.

Abstract
Background Increased blood pressure variability (BPV) is a risk factor for cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) and neurodegeneration, independent of age and average blood pressure, particularly in apolipoprotein E4 (APOE4) carriers. However, it remains uncertain whether BPV elevation is a cause or a consequence of vascular brain injury, or to what degree injury to the central autonomic network (CAN) may contribute to BPV-associated risk in APOE4 carriers. Methods Independently living older adults (n=70) with no history of stroke or dementia were recruited from the community and underwent 5 minutes of resting beat-to-beat blood pressure monitoring, genetic testing, and brain MRI. Resting BPV, APOE genotype, CSVD burden on brain MRI, and resting state CAN connectivity by fMRI were analyzed. Causal mediation and moderation analysis evaluated BPV and CAN effects on CSVD in APOE4 carriers (n=37) and non-carriers (n=33). Results Higher BPV was associated with the presence and extent of CSVD in APOE4 carriers, but not non-carriers, independent of CAN connectivity (B= 18.92, P= .02), and CAN connectivity did not mediate the relationship between BPV and CSVD. In APOE4 carriers, CAN connectivity moderated the relationship between BPV and CSVD, whereby BPV effects on CSVD were greater in those with lower CAN connectivity (B= 36.43, P= .02). Conclusions Older APOE4 carriers with higher beat-to-beat BPV exhibit more extensive CSVD, independent of average blood pressure, and the strength of CAN connectivity does not mediate these effects. Findings suggest increased BPV is more likely a cause, not a consequence, of CSVD. BPV is more strongly associated with CSVD in APOE4 carriers with lower rsCAN connectivity, suggesting CAN dysfunction and BPV elevation may have synergistic effects on CSVD. Further studies are warranted to understand the interplay between BPV and CAN function in APOE4 carriers.

Abstract
Dementia is the most common neurodegenerative disease in the aging population. Emerging evidence indicates that blood pressure (BP) variability is correlated with cognitive impairment and dementia independent of mean BP levels. The state-of-the-art review summarizes the latest evidence regarding the impact of BP variability on cognition in cognitively intact populations, patients with mild cognitive impairment, and different dementia types, focusing on the important confounding factors and new advances. This review also summarizes the potential mechanisms underlying the relationship between BP variability and cognitive impairment, and dementia, briefly discussing sex differences in the relationship. At last, current limitations and future perspectives are discussed to optimize BP management in preventing cognitive impairment and dementia.

Abstract
Background Cognitive impairment disrupts postural control, particularly when standing while performing an unrelated cognitive task (i.e., dual-tasking). The temporal dynamics of standing postural sway are "complex," and such complexity may reflect the capacity of the postural control system to adapt to task demands. We aimed to characterize the impact of cognitive impairment on such sway complexity in older adults. Methods Forty-nine older adult males (Alzheimer's disease (AD): n = 21; mild cognitive impairment (MCI): n = 13; cognitively-intact: n = 15) completed two 60-s standing trials in each of single-task and visual-search dual-task conditions. In the dual-task condition, participants were instructed to count the frequency of a designated letter in a block of letters projected on screen. The sway complexity of center-of-pressure fluctuations in anterior-posterior (AP) and medial-lateral (ML) direction was quantified using multiscale entropy. The dual-task cost to complexity was obtained by calculating the percent change of complexity from single- to dual-task condition. Results Repeated-measures ANOVAs revealed significant main effects of group (F > 4.8, p < 0.01) and condition (F = 7.7, p < 0.007) on both AP and ML sway complexity; and significant interaction between group and condition for ML sway complexity (F = 3.7, p = 0.03). The AD group had the lowest dual-task ML complexity, as well as greater dual-task cost to ML (p = 0.03) compared to the other two groups. Visual-search task accuracy was correlated with ML sway complexity in the dual-task condition (r = 0.42, p = 0.007), and the dual-task cost to ML sway complexity (r = 0.39, p = 0.01) across all participants. Conclusion AD-related cognitive impairment was associated with a greater relative reduction in postural sway complexity from single- to dual-tasking. Sway complexity appears to be sensitive to the impact of cognitive impairment on standing postural control.

Abstract
Having made substantial progress understanding molecules, cells, genes and pathways, aging biology research is now moving toward integration of these parts, attempting to understand how their joint dynamics may contribute to aging. Such a shift of perspective requires the adoption of a formal complex systems framework, a transition being facilitated by large-scale data collection and new analytical tools. Here, we provide a theoretical framework to orient researchers around key concepts for this transition, notably emergence, interaction networks and resilience. Drawing on evolutionary theory, network theory and principles of homeostasis, we propose that organismal function is accomplished by the integration of regulatory mechanisms at multiple hierarchical scales, and that the disruption of this ensemble causes the phenotypic and functional manifestations of aging. We present key examples at scales ranging from sub-organismal biology to clinical geriatrics, outlining how this approach can potentially enrich our understanding of aging.

Abstract
Background The blood pressure (BP) is regulated by multiple neurophysiologic elements over multiple temporal scales. The multiscale dynamics of continuous beat-to-beat BP series, which can be characterized by “BP complexity”, may, thus, capture the subtle changes of those elements, and be associated with the level of functional status in older adults. We aimed to characterize the relationships between BP complexity and several important functions in older adults and to understand the underlying factors contributing to BP complexity. Method A total of 400 older adults completed a series of clinical and functional assessments, a finger BP assessment of at least 10 min, and blood sample and vessel function tests. Their hypertensive characteristics, cognitive function, mobility, functional independence, blood composition, arterial stiffness, and endothelial function were assessed. The complexity of systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) BP series was measured using multiscale entropy. Results We observed that lower SBP and DBP complexity was significantly associated with poorer functional independence (β > 0.17, p < 0.005), cognitive function (β > 0.45, p = 0.01), and diminished mobility (β < −0.57, p < 0.003). Greater arterial stiffness (β < −0.48, p = 0.02), decreased endothelial function (β > 0.42, p < 0.03), and excessed level of blood lipids (p < 0.03) were the main contributors to BP complexity. Conclusion Blood pressure complexity is closely associated with the level of multiple functional statuses and cardiovascular health in older adults with and without hypertension, providing novel insights into the physiology underlying BP regulation. The findings suggest that this BP complexity metric would serve as a novel marker to help characterize and manage the functionalities in older adults.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Beat-to-beat blood pressure (BP) is an important cardiovascular output and regulated by neurophysiological elements over multiple temporal scales. The multiscale dynamics of beat-to-beat BP fluctuation can be characterized by "BP complexity" and has been linked to age-related adverse health outcomes. We here aimed to examine whether BP complexity mediates the association between arterial stiffness and frailty. METHOD This cross-sectional study was completed between January and October 2021. A total of 350 older adults completed assessments for frailty, arterial stiffness (ie, average brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity), and beat-to-beat finger BP. The complexity of beat-to-beat systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) BP series was measured using multiscale entropy. The relationships between frailty, BP complexity, and arterial stiffness were examined using analysis of variance and linear regression models. The effects of BP complexity on the association between arterial stiffness and frailty were examined using mediation analyses. RESULTS Compared with non-frail, prefrail, and frail groups had significantly elevated lower SBP and DBP complexity (F > 11, p < .001) and greater arterial stiffness (F = 16, p < .001). Greater arterial stiffness was associated with lower BP complexity (β < -0.42, p < .001). Beat-to-beat SBP and DBP complexity mediated the association between arterial stiffness and frailty (indirect effects >0.28), accounting for at least 47% of its total effects on frailty (mediated proportion: SBP: 50%, DBP: 47%). CONCLUSION This study demonstrates the association between BP complexity and frailty in older adults, and BP complexity mediates the association between arterial stiffness and frailty, suggesting that this metric would serve as a marker to help characterize important functions in the older adults.

Abstract
Background Beat‐to‐beat blood pressure variability (BPV) is associated with an increased risk of stroke but can be driven by both healthy physiological processes and failure of compensatory mechanisms. Blood pressure (BP) complexity measures structured, organized variations in BP, as opposed to random fluctuations, and its reduction may therefore identify pathological beat‐to‐beat BPV. Methods and Results In the prospective, population‐based OXVASC (Oxford Vascular Study) Phenotyped Cohort with transient ischemic attack or minor stroke, patients underwent at least 5 minutes of noninvasive beat‐to‐beat monitoring of BP (Finometer) and ECG to derive the following: BPV (coefficient of variation) and complexity (modified multiscale entropy) of systolic BP and diastolic BP, heart rate variability (SD of R‐R intervals), and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS; Welch's method), in low‐ (0.04–0.15 Hz) and high‐frequency (0.15–0.4 Hz) bands. Associations between BPV or BP complexity with autonomic indexes and arterial stiffness were determined (linear regression), unadjusted, and adjusted for age, sex, and cardiovascular risk factors. In 908 consecutive, consenting patients, BP complexity was inversely correlated with BPV coefficient of variation (P<0.001) and was similarly reduced in patients with hypertension or diabetes (P<0.001). However, although BPV coefficient of variation had a U‐shaped relationship with age, BP complexity fell systematically across age quintiles (quintile 1: 15.1 [14.0–16.1] versus quintile 5: 13.8 [12.4–15.1]) and was correlated with markers of autonomic dysfunction (heart rate variability SD of R‐R intervals: r = 0.20; BRS low frequency: 0.19; BRS high frequency: 0.26) and arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity: −0.21; all P<0.001), even after adjustment for clinical variables (heart rate variability SD of R‐R intervals: 0.12; BRS low frequency and BRS high frequency: 0.13 and 0.17; and pulse wave velocity: −0.07; all P<0.05). Conclusions Loss of BP complexity discriminates BPV because of pathological failure of compensatory mechanisms and may represent a less confounded and potentially modifiable risk factor for stroke.

Abstract
The variability of blood pressure (BPV) has been suggested as a clinical indicator for cognitive dysfunction, yet the results from clinical studies are variable. This study investigated the relationship between BPV and the risk of cognitive decline or dementia. Bibliographic databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Embase, were searched systematically for longitudinal cohort studies with BPV measurements and neuropsychological examinations or dementia diagnosis. A traditional meta‐analysis with subgroup analysis, and a further dose‐response meta‐analysis were conducted. Twenty cohort studies with 7 924 168 persons were included in this review. The results showed that a higher systolic BPV (SBPV), when measured with the coefficient of variation (SBP‐CV) or standard deviation (SBP‐SD), was associated with a higher risk of all‐cause dementia diagnosis but not incidence of cognitive decline on neuropsychological examinations. In subgroup analysis, the effect was more prominent when using BPV of shorter timeframes, during shorter follow‐ups, or among the elderly aged more than 65 years. No dose‐response relationship could be found. Our study suggested possible positive associations between SBPV and the risk of dementia. Further studies are required to validate these findings.

The Complexity of Blood Pressure Fluctuation Mediated the Effects of Hypertension on Walking Speed in Older Adults. Front Aging Neurosci 2021; 13:640942.

Abstract
Background: Older adults with hypertension often had diminished walking performance. The underlying mechanism through which hypertension affects walking performance, however, has not been fully understood. We here measured the complexity of the continuous systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure fluctuation, grade of white matter lesions (WMLs), and cognitive function and used structural equation modeling (SEM) to examine the interrelationships between hypertension, BP complexity, WMLs, cognitive function, and walking speed in single- and dual-task conditions. Methods: A total of 152 older adults with age > 60 years (90 hypertensive and 62 normotensive participants) completed one MRI scan of brain structure, a finger BP assessment of at least 10 min, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) to assess cognitive function, and 10-meter walking tests in single (i.e., normal walking) and dual tasks (i.e., walking while performing a serial subtraction of three from a random three-digit number). The grade of WMLs was assessed using the total score of Fazekas scale; the complexity of SBP and DBP was measured using multiscale entropy (MSE), and the walking performance was assessed by walking speed in single- and dual-task conditions. Results: As compared to normotensives, hypertensive older adults had significantly slower walking speed, lower complexity of SBP and DBP, greater grade of WMLs, and poorer cognitive function (p < 0.03). Those with lower BP complexity (β > 0.31, p < 0.003), greater WML grade (β < −0.39, p < 0.0002), and/or poorer cognitive function (β < −0.39, p < 0.0001) had slower walking speed in single- and/or dual-task conditions. The SEM model demonstrated significant total effects of hypertension on walking speed, and such effects were mediated by BP complexity only, or BP complexity, WML grade, and cognitive function together. Conclusion: This study demonstrates the cross-sectional association between the complexity of continuous beat-to-beat BP fluctuation, WML grade, cognitive function, and walking speed in hypertensive and normotensive older adults, revealing a potential mechanism that hypertension may affect walking performance in older adults through diminished BP complexity, increased WML grade, and decreased cognitive function, and BP complexity is an important factor for such effects. Future longitudinal studies are warranted to confirm the findings in this study.
