Mitochondrial mass governs the extent of T cell senescence
2019-05-04
Abstract excerpt
The susceptibility of human CD4 + and CD8 + T cells to senesce differs, with CD8 + T cells acquiring an immunosenescent phenotype faster than their CD4 + T cell compartment. We show here that it is the inherent difference in mitochondrial content that drives this phenotype, with senescent human CD4 + T cells displaying a higher mitochondrial mass. The loss of mitochondria in the senescent human CD8 + T cells...
