Myocardial Fibrosis and Changes of Myocardial Function Related to Aging

Name
69HCL15_0744
Description
In normal ageing, the impact of myocardial fibrosis on myocardial function is unclear as diastolic function is reported to change according to age. The objective is to explore the relationship between myocardial function changes, with local (T1 and diffusion) fibrosis measures with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) as well as global measures of fibrosis (skin auto-fluorescence and collagen blood-biomarkers).

Blood sampling
Blood sampling will be performed at inclusion to investigate some biological eligibility criteria, and the day of MRI in order to analyse fibrosis biomarkers and collagen synthesis biomarkers
Arms:
Healthy volunteers
MRI
MRI will be performed to measure interstitial fibrosis
Arms:
Healthy volunteers
Skin auto-fluorescence
Skin auto-fluorescence measures will be performed to measure advanced glycation end-products (AGE) produced by collagen degradation
