《免疫與衰老》自2004年出版以來(lái)，是一本專業(yè)的開(kāi)放獲取期刊，致力于增加關(guān)于衰老對(duì)免疫系統(tǒng)的影響、衰老免疫系統(tǒng)對(duì)機(jī)體健康和壽命的影響以及干預(yù)措施增加健康壽命的潛力的知識(shí)。該雜志歡迎提交關(guān)于人類衰老的任何方面和與免疫功能相關(guān)的模型生物體。所有的文章都經(jīng)過(guò)快速和嚴(yán)格的同行評(píng)審，所有被接受的文章都公開(kāi)發(fā)表，為作者的工作提供最高的可視性。人們?cè)絹?lái)越認(rèn)識(shí)到，免疫老化和機(jī)體老化是密切相關(guān)的，這使免疫系統(tǒng)在我們理解和控制衰老過(guò)程的努力中處于中心地位，而免疫與衰老繼續(xù)為在這個(gè)日益重要的領(lǐng)域傳播新知識(shí)提供了一個(gè)專門(mén)的渠道。

Immunity & Ageing, published since 2004, is a specialist open access journal dedicated to increasing knowledge about the impact of ageing on immune systems, the influence of aged immune systems on organismal well-being and longevity, and the potential for interventions to increase healthspan. The journal welcomes submissions dealing with any aspect of ageing in human and model organisms that relates to immune function.All articles undergo rapid and rigorous peer-review and all accepted articles are published open access to provide the highest visibility for authors’ work.The increasing realization that immune ageing and organismal ageing are intimately inter-related puts the immune system centre-stage in our efforts to understand and manipulate the ageing process and Immunity & Ageing continues to offer a specialized conduit for dissemination of new knowledge in this increasingly important arena.
