| Abstract |
Aging impairs humoral immune responses, leading to increased frequency and severity of infectious diseases and reduced protective effects of vaccination. We have identified B-cell biomarkers that are reduced by aging and that can be used as predictive markers of the response of an individual to vaccination. The identification of these biomarkers will have an impact on the development of effective vaccines to protect the elderly from infections and other debilitating diseases. |
