Abstract

The effects of aging on the immune system are manifest at multiple levels that include reduced production of B and T cells in bone marrow and thymus and diminished function of mature lymphocytes in secondary lymphoid tissues. As a result, elderly individuals do not respond to immune challenge as robustly as the young. An important goal of aging research is to define the cellular changes that occur in the immune system and the molecular events that underlie them. Considerable progress has been made in this regard, and this information has provided the rationale for clinical trials to rejuvenate the aging immune system.

  • It may state two separate claims as one. 28

  • The paper relies on this without support.

    The thymic effects of GH, IGF-1, and FGF7 are short-lived, and the thymus returns to its previous size after treatment ends.

    “because their effects are transient and the thymus reverts to its former size following the cessation of treatment.”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    Aging affects the immune system differently across individuals.

    “It is likely that the effects of aging on the immune system will not be uniform between individuals.”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    GH, IGF-1, and FGF7 act throughout the body because their receptors are present on cells in many tissues.

    “factors such as GH, IGF-1, and FGF7 have widespread systemic effects due to the expression of their receptors on cells in multiple tissues.”

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.

A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-06, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-06 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

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.
