CD4(+) T Cell-Receptor Repertoire Diversity is Compromised in the Spleen but Not in the Bone Marrow of Aged Mice Due to Private and Sporadic Clonal Expansions

Reduction in T cell receptor (TCR) diversity in old age is considered as a major cause for immune complications in the elderly population. Here, we explored the consequences of aging on the TCR repertoire in mice using high-throughput sequencing (TCR-seq). We mapped the TCRβ repertoire of CD4+ T cel...
