The immune system modifications in the elderly including a reduced immune response and altered cell cycle with delayed GO/G1-S transition are described. A decrease in CCD gene expression, especially TK, PCNA, H3 and IL-2 R has also been detected. The importance of studies on enkephalins and their correlations with the immune system in the elderly is emphasized.

Abstract
The immune system modifications in the elderly including a reduced immune response and altered cell cycle with delayed GO/G1-S transition are described. A decrease in CCD gene expression, especially TK, PCNA, H3 and IL-2 R has also been detected. The importance of studies on enkephalins and their correlations with the immune system in the elderly is emphasized.File in questo prodotto:
