The presence of CLL-associated stereotypic B cell receptors in the normal BCR repertoire from healthy individuals increases with age

The presence of CLL-associated stereotypic B cell receptors in the normal BCR repertoire from healthy individuals increases with age

Abstract Background Aging is known to induce immunosenescence, resulting in alterations in both the innate and adaptive immune system. Here we evaluated the effects of aging on B cell subsets in peripheral blood of 155 immunologically healthy individuals in four age categories (range 20-95y) via mul...
