He saw the raw potential in me and guide me to gain confidence and to become a competent scientist. His passion for science will always inspire me and I will take the skills I learned throughout my scientific career. I would also like to thank my former committee member, Prof. Linda Ambrosio who helped me in so many ways and my committee members: Prof. Maura McGrail, Prof. Marna Yandeau-Nelson, Prof. Stephen Howell and Prof. Kristen Johansen - for their time and commitment throughout the course of this research. In addition, I would also like to thank the GDCB department faculty and staff for making my time at Iowa State University a wonderful and unforgettable experience. vi ABSTRACT Aging is characterized by a chronic, low-grade inflammation, which is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. As one of the important metabolic centers, the liver shows age- related dysregulation of lipid metabolism, increased inflammation, and oxidative stress response. It remains poorly understood whether pro-inflammatory factors released from liver contribute to the non-autonomous regulation of age-related cardiac dysfunction. We showed that Drosophila oenocytes share molecular similarities and age-related changes with mammalian livers. We perform translatomic profiling on Drosophila oenocytes to understand age- and stress-regulated gene expression changes. We show that aging down- regulates oxidative phosphorylation, ribosome, proteasome and peroxisomal biogenesis in oenocytes, whereas innate
