Aging, both physiological and pathological, impacts the lives of people infected with HIV [1]. According to The Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS), in 2017, approximately 36.9 million people were living with HIV, of which 35.1 million were adults [2]. Approximately 940000 people died from AIDS-related illness worldwide in 2017, compared with 1.9 million in 2004 and 1.4 million in 2010. This demonstrates that the AIDS-related mortality rate has been decreasing over time [2]. Treatment with antiretroviral therapy (ART) had led to a growing number of HIV-infected individuals entering old age. In 2015, 5.8 million people living with HIV worldwide were aged over 50 years, approximately 17% of the adult population living with HIV. In high-income countries, 31% of people living with HIV were over the age of 50 years [3].Age-related health problems are more common in HIV-infected than healthy individuals [4, 5]. In addition, accelerated aging might occur in HIV-infected patients below the age of 50 years and cause negative health outcomes [6]. Immunosenescence (ie aging of the immune system) may underline some of these problems and is an emerging research topic [7]. Systemic immune activation and the acceleration of immunosenescence may occur even in individuals with good viral control by ARTand cause chronically insufficient immune responses
