7 WHAT IS IMMUNOSENESCENCE?

8 IMMUNITY AND AGEING AGEING: Immune deregulation CAUSE: multifactorial -genetic -intrinsic -environmental: nutrition BASIC ALTERATION : cellular immunity MODULABLE

9 Major changes in T cells with age many changes have been reported over the years but there is little agreement between cross-sectional studies Decreased Increased CD3+ cells (slightly) CD3+DR+ cells TCR1 (γδ) cells (slightly) TCR oligoclonality CD4+CD7+ cells TCR variants (mutants) CD4+ cells (slightly or unchanged) CD4+CD8 (αα)+ cells CD45RA+ cells CD45RO+ cells CD28+ cells CD28-negative cells CD95+ cells CD152 (CTLA-4)+ cells i.e. naive T cells i.e. memory T cells - have never seen antigen - are sensitised to antigen Pawelec. G et al

10 Functions Decreased Increased Proliferation with mitogens TCR signal transduction Nuclear transcription factor activation (AP-1, NF-AT, NF-κB) IL 2 secretion IL 10 secretion soluble IL 2R secretion IL 6 secretion IL 2R expression after activation TNF-α secretion CTL generation CD40L (CD154) upregulation and thus B cell help Telomere lengths DNA damage Telomerase induction DNA repair hprt & HLA mutations; Pawelec. G et al

11 CELLULAR IMMUNITY: T Lymphocytes CAUSES OF ALTERATIONS: INTRINSIC Chronic antigenic stimulation Changes in T lymphocytes sub-populations Thymic involution Alteration in T cell intracellular signalling

12 Chronic antigenic stress It is suggested that many of these changes are caused by: chronic antigenic stress and oxidative stress stimulation by tumour antigens in cancer patients stimulation by persistent viruses in the elderly. CMV, Herpes Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV) The CD8 cells are characterised by increased resistance to apoptosis and the CD4 cells by increased susceptibility Hence dysfunctional CD8 cells accumulate and specific CD4 cells are clonally deleted; the CD4:8 ratio can become inverted

13 CMV infection is associated with accumulation of the most late-differentiated CD8 cells CD57 expression on CD8+ T-cells CD57+KLRG1+ CD8+T-cells % positive cells Seropositive Seronegative Seropositive Seronegative KLRG1+ CD8+T-cells Seropositive Seronegative Most age-associated changes are exacerbated by or even caused by, chronic antigenic stressors, commonly CMV Derhovanessian 2008

14 Involution of the thymus

15 Result: an accumulation of dysfunctional cells Antigen Compromised in the elderly Dysfunctional cells Activation of naive cells Expansion (ca. 28 PD Contraction Memory in IM) Apoptosis Cytokines (IL-15) - Hypothesis: Because T cell homeostasis maintains constant numbers of T cells in the periphery, even if naive cells continue to be generated from the thymus, the T cell repertoire will be shrunken, contributing to increased susceptibility to infectious disease and cancer and Inflamaging.

CIA, 2008

25 Conclusion Elderly are immunocompromised with few naive cells and dysfunctional (exhausted) memory cells, due to chronic antigenic stress (CMV, cancer antigens, ) and thymic involution with altered innate immune response resulting in inflamm-aging as well as cancer development.
