Telomere immmune system disease length ageing

  • The immune system is highly sensitive to shortening of telomeres
  • they can up-regulate telomerase, the telomere extending enzyme
  • In ageing immune system adaptive immunity deteriorates because of a progressive decline of naive T and B cells and decrease of absolute numbers of T and B lymphocytes

    the immune system is very sensitive to shortening of telomere length. This change in the immune system can be a pivotal role in disease development
