There is a dramatic remodeling of the T cell compartment during aging. The most notorious changes are the reduction of the naive T cell pool and the accumulation of memory-like T cells. Memory-like T cells in older people acquire a phenotype of terminally differentiated cells, lose the expression of costimulatory molecules, and acquire properties of

During the last decade, the stimulation of T-cell function by the blockage of immunosuppressive checkpoints has experienced an outstanding impact in the treatment of cancer. Development of the chimeric antigen receptor T-cell technology has also emerged as a powerful alternative for patients suffering from oncological processes, especially those affected by hematological neoplasms. Recent evidence suggest

Fasting reduces chemotherapy toxicity, enhances immunogenic tumor cell death and increases CD8+ T cell infiltration in tumors, particularly when combined with chemotherapy or immunotherapy. Moreover, fasting exhibits a sexual dimorphism in the immune system . The aim of our study was to elucidate the role of sex in the beneficial anti‐tumoral effects of combining fasting and
