We have suggested that the health status of individuals can be represented by the number of health deficits that they accumulate during their life. We have suggested that this can be measured by a fitness-frailty index (or just a frailty index), which is the ratio of the deficits present in a person to the total number of deficits considered (e.g. available in a given database or experimental procedure). Further, we have proposed that the frailty index represents the biological age of the individual, and suggested an algorithm for its estimation. In investigations by many groups, the frailty index has shown reproducible properties such as: age-specific, nonlinear increase, higher values in women, strong association with mortality and other adverse outcomes, and universal limit to its increase. At the level of individual, the frailty index shows complex stochastic dynamics, reflecting both stochasticity of the environment and the ability to recover from various illnesses. Most recently, we have proposed that the origin of deficit accumulation lies in the interaction between the environment, the organism and its ability to recover. We apply a stochastic dynamics framework to illustrate that the average recovery time increases with age, mimicking the age-associated increase in deficit accumulation.</p>","PeriodicalId":87437,"journal":{"name":"Interdisciplinary topics in gerontology","volume":"40 ","pages":"85-98"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000364933","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"32768913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As we age, changes in essentially all physiological functions, including immunity, are apparent. Immune responses decrease with aging, contributing to the increased incidence of different chronic diseases with an inflammatory component (sometimes referred to as 'inflamm-aging'). It is clear from many studies that human longevity may be influenced by these changes in the immune system, but how they proceed is not clearly determined. In this chapter, we will review the age-related changes in the immune response and assess the validity of the immune theory of aging (i.e. that these changes in immune response are the primary cause of aging). Many data in humans support the notion that age-associated immune dysfunction may at least in part explain the aging process. Explanatory power may be enhanced by combination with other theories such as the free radical theory.

According to Svanborg, a Swedish geriatrician, over the last decades human life expectancy increased as well as the age at onset of fatal diseases.

Therefore, the emphasis is on regulation of resistance dependent on the expression of genes such as Sirtuins, mTOR pathway and others controlling body resistance. Only a small fraction (<1%) of centenarians live to become supercentenarians (110 years), indicating a limit of performance and resistance of the body.

In vitro, the proliferation of human fibroblasts terminates with a postmitotic cell which was called senescent cell. Due to misinterpreted experiments, the latter was considered the hallmark of cellular aging, although obviously we do not age because our cells stop dividing. The so-called senescent cell has been the core of the investigation on cellular aging and of the theories proposed on the subject. The search for mechanisms responsible for the postmitotic state led to contradictory results, which accumulated when the term cell senescence was used to define the growth arrest due to a variety of causes. The mechanisms believed to be causing these multiple forms of cell senescence multiplied accordingly. This was disregarded claiming that there are multiple pathways to cell senescence.
