T cells (and B cells) are part of the adaptive immune response that takes 4-7 days after infection to become effective.
T cells have receptors on their surfaces that recognize HLA (human leukocyte antigen) markers that are present on all body cells.

 [Frontiers in Bioscience 3, d1120-1133, November 1, 1998]
The available data suggest that changes in the signal transduction machinery are responsible for the impairment of T cell function during aging.
This recognition event promotes sequential activation of a network of signaling molecules such as kinases, phosphatates, and adaptor proteins that couple the stimulatory signal received from T cell receptor (TCR) to intracellular signaling pathways.
Although it is well established that the functional properties of T cells decrease with age, its biochemical and molecular nature is poorly understood.
