Abstract
In this review, we summarize key observations supporting the idea of immunosenescence in the CNS. We provide a discussion of senescent changes that affect microglial cells and emphasize differences between laboratory rodents and humans. Microglial immunosenescence may explain why humans but not rodents develop neurofibrillary degeneration.Entities:
