Age-associated decline in T cell repertoire diversity leads to holes in the repertoire and impaired immunity to influenza virus

A diverse T cell repertoire is essential for a vigorous immune response to new infections, and decreasing repertoire diversity has been implicated in the age-associated decline in CD8 T cell immunity.
