    Aging Spleen Triggers T Cell Exhaustion: New Study Finds a Toxic Environment

    New insights into immune aging Researchers at the Technion—Israel Institute of Technology Faculty of Biology have uncovered a striking mechanism that explains part of why the immune system weakens with age. The study identifies how structural changes in the aging spleen create a toxic microenvironment that pushes T cells into a self-protective, yet functionally compromised,…
