Aging: Cell coordination breakdown

(European Molecular Biology Laboratory - European Bioinformatics Institute) Scientists have resolved a key question in aging research by showing how mouse immune cells of different ages respond to stimulation.Study demonstrates weaker response of older cells is due to their coordination breaking down, making their response to immune stimulation more variable.Single-cell sequencing technology allows scientists to profile individual cells independently to view cellular activity in high resolution.
