Recent studies using single-cell RNA sequencing technology have uncovered several subpopulations of CD4+ T cells that accumulate with aging. These age-associated T cells are emerging as relevant players in the onset of inflammaging and tissue senescence. Here, based on information provided by single-cell RNA sequencing data, we present a flow cytometry panel that allows the identification

In a recent work reported in Science, Zhang et al. untangle dynamic changes arising across aging in multiple cell populations within thirteen organs using single-cell transcriptomics and identify four distinct dynamic waves in which immune cells are the most affected

Neutrophils are the most abundant leukocytes in the blood, with numbers further increasing with age. Despite their essential role as a primary line of defense, neutrophils can contribute to tissue damage and age-related diseases 1 and a high neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio predicts all causes of mortality in the elderly 2–5. However, the precise mechanisms driving enhanced
