Neuroimmunology in Ageing and Longevity

Ageing is associated with neuroimmune shifts from a resting to a hyperactive and inflammatory state, termed ‘neuroinflammageing’. The call for this special issue invites review and research articles dealing with the complex cross-talk between the CNS and peripheral immune cells and molecules during ageing, understanding neuroimmune pathways, and identify targets to design interventional regimens for healthy brain ageing and longevity. The peer review process for articles submitted to this collection is the same as the peer review process of the journal in general. Authors affiliated to an institution, which is participating under one of our Transformative Agreements and acting as corresponding author, may be eligible to publish open access with the publication fees covered (if accepted for publication).
