Abstract
Immunosenescence is a weakening of the immune system due to aging, characterized by changes in immune cells and dysregulated immune function. Age-related immune cells are increasing with aging. They are associated with chronic prolonged inflammation, causing tissue dysfunction and age-related diseases. Here, we discuss increased pro-inflammatory activity of aged macrophages, accumulation of lymphocytes with an age-associated phenotype, and specific alterations in both functions and characteristics of these immune cells. These cellular changes are associated with development of age-related diseases. Additionally, we reviewed various therapeutic strategies targeting age-related immunosenescence, providing pathways to mitigate effects of age-related diseases.
