Journal ArticleDOI
Role of the p63-FoxN1 regulatory axis in thymic epithelial cell homeostasis during aging
TL;DR: TAp63 levels are positively correlated with TEC senescence but inversely correlated with expression of FoxN1 and FoxN 1-regulated TEC differentiation, which indicates the p63-FoxN1 regulatory axis in regulation of postnatal TEC homeostasis has been revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insights on Foxn1 biological significance and usages of the "nude" mouse in studies of T-Lymphopoiesis
TL;DR: The research progress made by several recent works studying the role of FoxN1 in the thymus and utilizing nude and “second (conditional) nude” mouse models for studies of T-cell development and function are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Capacity of tTreg generation is not impaired in the atrophied thymus.
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that the atrophied thymus attempts to balance the defective negative selection by enhancing tTreg cell generation to maintain central T-cell tolerance in the elderly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immunosenescence: a product of the environment?
TL;DR: Emerging evidence suggests that the aged microenvironment contributes significantly to the age-associated decline of immune function and additionally may offer a potential target for rejuvenating the immune system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Friend or foe: the dichotomous impact of T cells on neuro-de/re-generation during aging
TL;DR: Immunotherapeutics including vaccination and “protective autoimmunity” provide promising means to rejuvenate neuro-inflammatory disorders and repair CNS acute injury and chronic neuro-degeneration, via the “thymus-inflammaging-neurodegenerations axis”.
