Researchers at the Boston University School of Medicine and Tufts Medical Center studied the immune cell types of centenarians who were over 100 years old.. They found specific mechanisms of action. This is stated in the journal EBioMedicine. It is noted that one of the causes of aging is the degradation of the immune system.. But in centenarians, these processes occur more slowly, because their immune system is more resilient.. " The results of the analysis were then combined with two publicly available single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets to study compositional and transcriptional changes in the human immune system throughout life and into old age.. After that, we used modern computational methods.. So, it became known that centenarians have a unique composition of cells that forms a strong immune response.. “These protective factors allow their immune system to adapt after being exposed to infections and then quickly recover.. Naturally, with age, this ability gradually decreases, but more slowly than in carriers of conventional types of immune cells..
The findings of the work are also consistent with previous discoveries," Recall that earlier scientists from the Buck Institute and Stanford University developed a system that, based on the analysis of certain proteins in the blood, allows you to determine the biological age of a person, predict the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and estimate life expectancy..
