Low brain blood flow changed brain immune cells in aged mice
Experiments in aged mice found that long-term reductions in brain blood flow altered the mix and gene activity of T cells, a type of immune cell.Experiments in aged mice found that long-term reductions in brain blood flow altered the mix and gene activity of T cells, a type of immune cell.
Mouse studyBlood and immune system
Who was studiedAged mice with reduced brain blood flow
What changedSeveral types of brain T cells increased in aged mice with chronically reduced brain blood flow
The catchT-cell composition and gene activity were measured, not the functions of individual subsets
