A significant decline of both Ia^+DECs and Thy-1^+DECs in the mice of the aged group was demonstrated anddifferent densities and different distribution patterns betweenIa^+DECs and Thy-1^+DECs were obserged. These findingsmay imply that the decline of both Ia^+DECs and Thy-1^+DECs in the aged group may reflect the alterations of im-mune response in aging.展开更多
