Abstract Tumor immunotherapy has significantly transformed the field of oncology over past decade. An optimal tumor would ideally elicit robust innate and adaptive immune responses within microenvironment (TIME). Unfortunately, system experiences functional decline with chronological age, a process termed “immunosenescence,” which contributes to impaired against pathogens, suboptimal vaccination outcomes, heightened vulnerability various diseases, including cancer. In this context, we will elucidate hallmarks molecular mechanisms underlying immunosenescence, detailing alterations in immunosenescence at molecular, cellular, organ, disease levels. The role tumorigenesis senescence‐related extracellular matrix (ECM) also been addressed. Recognizing that is dynamic influenced by factors, evaluate treatment strategies targeting mechanisms, as well methods for cell, organ restoration, present emerging approaches immunotherapy. overarching goal research prevent development, recurrence, metastasis, ultimately improving patient prognosis. Our review aims reveal latest advancements prospective directions research, offering theoretical basis development practical anti‐immunosenescence anti‐tumor strategies.

The brain has long been considered an immune-privileged organ due to the presence of blood-brain barrier (BBB). However, recent discoveries have revealed underestimated role T cells in through meningeal lymphatic system. Age is primary risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD), resulting marked age-dependent changes cells. Manipulating peripheral cell immune response shown impact AD, but relationship between aging and AD remains poorly understood. Given limited success targeting amyloid beta (Aβ) growing evidence cells' involvement non-lymphoid aging, a deeper understanding context crucial advancing therapeutic progress. In this review, we comprehensively examine existing studies on offer integrated perspective their interconnections aging. This can inform development new interventions prevent or treat AD.

The intricate balance of immune reactions towards invading pathogens and tolerance self is pivotal in preventing autoimmune diseases, with the thymus playing a central role establishing maintaining this equilibrium. induction involves elimination self-reactive T cells, mechanism essential for averting autoimmunity. Disruption thymic cell selection mechanisms can lead to development diseases. In dynamic microenvironment thymus, migration interactions stromal cells are critical processes that ensure self-tolerance. Thymic epithelial particularly significant context, presenting self-antigens inducing negative autoreactive cells. Further, synergistic roles fibroblasts, B dendritic antigen presentation, regulatory responses tightly regulated.

Abstract Age‐related changes in human T‐cell populations are important contributors to immunosenescence. In particular, terminally differentiated CD8 + effector memory CD45RA TEMRA cells and their subsets have characteristics of cellular senescence, accumulate older individuals, increased age‐related chronic inflammatory diseases. a detailed profiling among individuals over 65 years age, we found high interindividual variation populations. proportions correlated positively with cytomegalovirus (CMV) antibody levels, however, not the chronological age. analysis 90 inflammation proteins, identified plasma TRANCE/RANKL levels associate several populations, including its CD28 − subsets.

As we age, our immune system’s ability to effectively respond pathogens declines, a phenomenon known as immunosenescence. This age-related deterioration affects both innate and adaptive immunity, compromising function leading chronic inflammation that accelerates aging. Immunosenescence is characterized by alterations in cell populations impaired functionality, resulting increased susceptibility infections, diminished vaccine efficacy, higher prevalence of diseases. Chronic low-grade further exacerbates these issues, contributing decline overall health resilience. review delves into the characteristics immunosenescence examines various intrinsic extrinsic factors aging how hallmarks fates can play crucial role this process.
