Popis: Abstract Diastolic dysfunction is a major cardiac dysfunction, and an important predisposing factor is age. Although exercise training is often used for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease nowadays, little is currently known about whether exercise interventions associated with the slowing of cardiac aging are related to mtp‐related pathways. In the present study, the UAS/Tub‐Gal4 system was used to knockdown whole‐body mtp expression levels in Drosophila, which underwent 2 weeks of endurance training. By conducting different assays and quantifying different indicators, we sought to investigate the relationship between mtp, exercise, and age‐related diastolic dysfunction. We found that (1) Drosophila in the mtpRNAi youth group exhibited age‐related diastolic dysfunction and had a significantly shorter mean lifespan. (2) Endurance exercise could improve diastolic dysfunction and prolong lifespan in aged Drosophila. (3) Endurance exercise could increase the expression levels of apolpp and Acox3, and decrease the levels of TC, LDL‐C, and TG in the aged group. In summary, aging causes age‐associated diastolic dysfunction in Drosophila, and systemic knockdown of mtp causes premature age‐associated diastolic dysfunction in young Drosophila. Besides, endurance exercise improves age‐related diastolic dysfunction and prolongs lifespan.
