// In the context of the review which this paper is paired with for Deep Dive, this is an example of "altered intercellular communication". Specifically this is about the immune system behaving differently over time that is referred to as immunosenecence. // | // In the context of the review which this paper is paired with for Deep Dive, this is an example of "altered intercellular communication".

If one thing can be gleaned from this section on labelling it may be that there are many cells involved in the immune system. A typical basic research programme defines the cells they are studying using antibodies to label cells. As more studies are performed on different subsets more functional data becomes linked to various molecular identities and more mechanistic theories about the larger system can be proposed. | If one thing can be gleaned from this section on labelling it may be that there are many cells involved in the immune system.
