Aged human T cells briefly regain young-like patrol behaviour
In laboratory experiments, thicker fluid temporarily restored young-like monitoring behaviour, particularly in a subgroup of aged human memory T cells.In laboratory experiments, thicker fluid temporarily restored young-like monitoring behaviour, particularly in a subgroup of aged human memory T cells.
Human cell studyBlood and immune system
Who was studiedAged human T cells, against aged T cells before priming
What changedAfter thicker-fluid priming, aged T cells temporarily regained young-like surveillance behavior
The catchThe experiments measured cell behavior, not infection clearance
