Conclusion |
Together, our study indicates that co-expression of tigit and helios provides a novel useful marker to better define immunosenescent cd8?t cells. moreover, we show that these cells already accumulate in the intermediate-differentiation stage in older individuals. these findings challenge the current dogma of late-differentiation stage as a sole proxy for t-cell immunosenescence. these insights may refine future interpretation of studies on impaired cd8?t-cell mediated immunity to viral infections at old age.++. |
