Increased levels of apoptosis in lymphocytes from elderly donors. a Death rates and b levels of apoptosis in living lymphocytes in uninfected CD3/CD28 bead stimulated PBMC cultures from young (Y) and elderly (O) donors. c Death rates and d levels of apoptosis in (left) GFP− and (right) HIV-1-infected GFP+ cells in PBMC cultures infected with X4 or R5 GFP reporter HIV-1 NL4-3 strains. Each symbol represents the result obtained for one individual PBMC donor
