Human immunosenescence: the prevailing of innate immunity, the failing of clonotypic immunity, and the filling of immunological space
Abstract
According to the remodeling theory of aging we proposed several years ago, the current data on human immunosenescence depicts a complex scenario where clonotypical immunity deteriorates, while ancestral innate/natural immunity is largely conserved or even up-regulated with age. Under an evolutionary perspective, antigens are the cause of a persistent life-long antigenic stress, responsible for the accumulation of effector CD8+/CD28- T cells, the decrease of naive T cells (CD95-) and the marked shrinkage of T cell repertoire with age. Concomitantly, NK cytotoxicity, chemotaxis, phagocytosis and complement activities remain unaffected or negligibly affected, in comparison to clonotypical immunity. Thus, immunosenescence is not a random deteriorative phenomenon but appears to inversely recapitulate an evolutionary pattern. On the whole, immunosenescence can be envisaged as the result of the continuous challenge of the unavoidable exposure to a variety of potential antigens (viruses, bacteria, but also food and self molecules among others). From this perspective antigens are nothing else than a particular type of stressor and immunosenescence appears to be the price paid to immunological memory, i.e. one of the main characteristics of the most evolutionary recent and sophisticated type of immunity. Together with the age-related thymic involution, and the consequent age-related decrease of thymic output of new T cells, this situation leaves the body practically devoid of virgin T cells, and thus likely more prone to a variety of infectious and non infectious diseases.

“A variety of phenomena have been proposed to contribute to this age-related heightened inflammatory state including redox stress [46], immuno- and endocrine senescence [47, 48], DNA damage [49], epigenetic modification [50], and a distortion of gut microbial homeostasis [51] that is associated with increased levels of circulating endotoxin [42].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
