The importance of vitamin D for a well-functioning immune system is becoming increasingly evident. Nevertheless, the other fat-soluble vitamins A, E and K also seem to play a central role regarding the adequat...
Advanced aging invariably triggers an overabundance of apoptosis, stemming from diminished autophagy or a disarray in cellular autophagic processes. This, in turn, leads to an accelerated breakdown of muscle p...
The relationship between psoriasis and aging remains unclear. Biological age is considered as a tool for strong association with aging, but there is a lack of reports on the relationship between biological age...
Phytochemicals help mitigate skin aging by scavenging free radicals, modulating key enzymatic pathways, and promoting the skin’s structural integrity. Carotenoids, vitamins, essential fatty acids, and phenolic...
The characteristics of ulcerative colitis (UC) in the elderly are quite different from the young population. Mitochondrial injury is a key mechanism regulating both aging and inflammation. This study aims to r...
Older people living with HIV-1 (PLWH) experience a dual burden from the combined effects of aging and HIV-1 infection, resulting in significant immune dysfunction. Despite receiving HAART, immune reconstitutio...
Obesity and metabolic syndrome are major public health concerns linked to cognitive decline with aging. Prior work from our lab has demonstrated that short-term high fat diet (HFD) rapidly impairs memory funct...
As older age and having certain comorbidities can influence humoral responses to vaccination, we studied antibody responses after the COVID-19 booster campaigns in nursing home (NH) residents.
The increased incidence of inflammatory diseases, infectious diseases, autoimmune disorders, and tumors in elderly individuals is closely associated with several well-established features of immunosenescence, ...
Immune ageing complicates cancer treatment in older individuals. While immunotherapy targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway can reinvigorate T cells, these cells tend to become senescent with age. This study investi...
Immunosenescence, the slow degradation of immune function over time that is a hallmark and driver of aging, makes older people much more likely to be killed by common infections (such as flu) than young adults...
People living with HIV (PLHIV) demonstrate accelerated aging and immunosenescence in spite of immune-restoration following long-term antiretroviral treatment (ART). Low level inflammation leading to inflammagi...
Memory responses to the antigens that an individual encounters throughout life may vary with the intensity and duration of antigen contacts or even with changes in immune status over time. This work aims to ch...
Antibodies are essential to immune homeostasis due to their roles in neutralizing pathogenic agents. However, failures in central and peripheral checkpoints that eliminate autoreactive B cells can undermine se...
Decline in immune function with age has been studied extensively, but approaches to immune restoration have been hampered by the lack of simple methods of identifying individuals whose immune system is in decl...
Immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibition (ICI) is increasingly prescribed to older patients with cancer. High age, especially in combination with frailty, has been associated to immune senescence, which is the...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial roles in regulating inflammation and cellular senescence. Among them, miR-146a has emerged as a key modulator of inflammation, but its role in obesity-induced senescence remains...
Cognitive decline is a critical hallmark of brain aging. Although aging is a natural process, there is significant heterogeneity in cognition levels among individuals; however, the underlying mechanisms remain...
Ageing is a major risk factor that contributes to increased mortality and morbidity rates during influenza A virus (IAV) infections. Macrophages are crucial players in the defense against viral infections and ...

Preventing metabolic syndrome (MetS) and frailty in older adults is crucial for healthy aging. The association between MetS and physical frailty is well-documented, with low-grade inflammation as potential exp...
Mast cells (MCs) are tissue resident cells of the immune system, mainly known for their role in allergy. However, mounting evidence indicates their involvement in the pathology of age-related diseases, such as...
In the last forty years, the number of people over 60 years of age has increased significantly owing to better nutrition and lower rates of infectious diseases in developing countries. Aging significantly impa...
The circulatory peripheral immune system is the most convenient approach for determining an individual’s immune status. Due to various reasons, while previous studies have addressed the critical impact of age,...
The immune system undergoes progressive functional remodeling from neonatal stages to old age. Therefore, understanding how aging shapes immune cell function is vital for precise treatment of patients at diffe...
Historical survey confirms that, over the latter part of the 20th century, autoimmune-based diseases, including multiple sclerosis (MS), have shown a worldwide increase in incidence and prevalence. Analytical pop...
Previous research has indicated that extracellular vesicles (EVs) potentially play significant roles in multiple ageing phenotypes. This study uses a factorial experimental design to explore the interactions b...
The World Health Organization recognizes frailty and multimorbidity as major global health issues and underscores the need for effective interventions. Recent advances have identified interleukin-11 (IL-11), a...

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disorder that commonly affects the skin, kidneys, joints, and various other systemic tissues, with its development intricately linked to the process of immun...
Older persons elicit heterogeneous antibody responses to vaccinations that generally are lower than those in younger, healthier individuals. As older age and certain comorbidities can influence these responses...
Systemic inflammation significantly increases the risk of short- and long-term mortality in geriatric hospitalized patients. To predict mortality in older patients with various age-related diseases and infecti...
