Age-dependent changes in the cellular immune response have been mainly described in CD8+ T cells, with relative sparing of CD4+ T cells. We show that in older compared to young adults, effector memory and effector CD8+ T-cell subsets responding to influenza A/H3N2 challenge have diminished cytoly...
