Abstract
We evaluated the impact of sex and mitochondrial-haplotype on the age-related changes in the fecal gut microbiome of the genetically heterogeneous rodent model, the OKC-HETB/W rat. The age-related changes in the microbiome differed markedly between male and female rats. Five microbial species changed significantly with age in male rats compared to nine microbial species in female rats. Only three of these microbes changed with age in both male and female rats. The mitochondrial-haplotype of the rats also affected how aging altered the microbiome. Interestingly, most of the microbial species that changed significantly with age were mitochondrial-haplotype and sex specific, i.e., changing in one sex and not the other. We also discovered that sex and mitochondrial-haplotype significantly affected the age-related variations in content of fecal short-chain fatty acids and plasma metabolites that influence or are regulated by the microbiome, e.g., tryptophan derived metabolites and bile acids. This study demonstrates that the host’s sex plays a significant role in how the gut microbiome evolves with age, even within a genetically diverse background. Importantly, this is the first study to show that the mitochondrial-haplotype of a host impacts the age-related changes in the microbiome.

About Aging-US
The mission of the journal is to understand the mechanisms surrounding aging and age-related diseases, including cancer as the main cause of death in the modern aged population.
The journal aims to promote 1) treatment of age-related diseases by slowing down aging, 2) validation of anti-aging drugs by treating age-related diseases, and 3) prevention of cancer by inhibiting aging. (Cancer and COVID-19 are age-related diseases.)
