In the elderly, non-specific symptoms tend to come to the fore in addition to the symptoms resulted directly from anemia. Moreover, mild anemia could give the excessive effects to the heart and the lungs because of less function of organs. There is no great difference in the epidemiology of anemia in the elderly and the youth. However, the anemia associated with chronic illness, especially due to malignancy, is frequent in the elderly. The research for the original disease and its treatment should take priority in the anemia of chronic disorder.

Chronic low-grade inflammation observed in older adults, termed inflammaging, is a common feature underlying a multitude of aging-associated maladies including a decline in hematopoietic activity. However, whether suppression of inflammaging can preserve hematopoietic health span remains unclear, in part because of a lack of tools to measure inflammaging within hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Here, we identify thrombospondin-1 (Thbs1) as an essential regulator of inflammaging within HSCs.
