<i>Different ways to die:</i> harnessing variation in <i>Drosophila</i> reveals loss of tolerance and resistance over age and sex-specific association between infection susceptibility and lifespan

2025-07-10

Abstract excerpt

It is widely accepted that susceptibility to infection increases with age. The reason often invoked is the dysregulation of the immune system, which is both cause and consequence of ageing. However, we do not all age in the same way, and increased susceptibility may not be solely due to immune dysregulation affecting resistance to infection. There are many possible ways to make a host less tolerant to infection by...
