Immunosenescence, a major hallmark of systemic aging, refers to the progressive functional decline of the immune system. This decline not only compromises host defense and immunological memory but also fuels chronic inflammation and tissue degeneration (collectively known as inflammaging). While single-cell RNA sequenc...

Regular exercise is well established to protect against metabolic disorders and bolster immunity, but the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. We integrated plasma metabolomics and lipidomics with single-cell transcriptomic and chromatin accessibility profiles from regularly exer...
