Abstract
CMV seems to enhance immunosenescence based on the high levels of the highly differentiated EM and TEMRA cells in the CD8+ and CD4+ T cell pools. The relation of the shifts within the T cell compartments in CMV-seropositive elderly in relation to susceptibility to infectious diseases remains to be investigated.
