It is likely that, given the complexity of immune system development, the number of cells involved in an immune response (and especially the changes in the immune system with aging), multiple genetic loci, and many genes will contribute to age-related changes in immunity (46).he genetics of aging and longevity are quite unusual and have specific and unexpected peculiarities (15). First, for example, the same gene polymorphism can have different (beneficial or detrimental) effects at different ages, a phenomenon we proposed calling âcomplex allele timingâ (15).
