Figure 1. MDSCs expand during aging to participate in reduction of bone mass.

Figure 1.

During the aging process, immunosenescence leads to myelopoiesis resulting in the expansion of myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) populations. This population is capable of differentiating directly into osteoclasts potentially contributing to loss of bone mass associated with aging.
