Circulating MCP‐1 levels are elevated in frail older adults. Plasma MCP‐1 concentrations were quantified by a Luminex platform. Frail individuals possessed three or more of the following criteria: slow gait, weak grip, reduced physical activity, low endurance, and unintentional weight loss. Graphed are individual values. The black bars represent the mean ± SEM (nonfrail n = 27, frail n = 36, Mann–Whitney test, **p = .009)
