Our immune system declines with age. Now the lab of @zhangf.bsky.social has found a way to overcome this decline by temporarily programming liver cells to improve T cells’ ability to fight infection.
New study suggests a way to rejuvenate the immune system
Stimulating the liver to produce some of the signals of the thymus can reverse age-related declines in T-cell populations and enhance response to vaccination.
