title: Aging and immune response: a multivariate approach.
abstract: This study on the immune response was chosen as the experimental milieu for the aging process. Parameters associated with the immune response were measured in rats of different ages, thus providing multivariate conditions within which multidimensional data analysis procedures could be applied. These methods, specifically designed for analyzing complex situations, allowed for the delineation of some structural characteristics of maturity and senescence.
