Age-related effects in T cell activation and proliferation.

Abstract:

:Age-associated thymic involution manifests its effects in a variety of ways that are related to a loss of T cell function. These include the appearance of a non-functional subset of T cells that increase in representation with age. Moreover there is a loss of T cell proliferative ability, a decline in the synthesis and release of interleukin-2 (IL-2), a decline in the ability of the T cell to express the IL-2 receptor, and a loss of control activity. This loss of control is demonstrated by the age-related appearance of autoantibodies and an increase in the elaboration of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF, IFN, IL-6, and TGF. A major part of the basis for the loss of T cell function is an inability of the T cell to respond to activation signals that are transmitted through the membrane binding of specific stimulatory signals. Transduction events, differentiation signals, and a loss of control mechanisms are all parts of a complicated picture of age-related immune deficiencies.
