CMV seropositivity and T‐cell senescence predict increased cardiovascular mortality in octogenarians: results from the Newcastle 85+ study

Although chronic infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV) is known to drive T lymphocytes toward a senescent phenotype, it remains controversial whether and how CMV can cause coronary heart disease (CHD). To explore whether CMV seropositivity or T‐cell populations associated with immunosenescence were i...
