Abstract
Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) have been largely utilized to assess the cytotoxic, immunomodulatory, and anti-inflammatory properties of both synthetic and natural compounds. Within the latter category, polyphenols from dietary sources have been extensively analyzed. PBMCs represent a feasible in vitro model to study polyphenol hallmarks and activity according to quantitative and qualitative differences in immune responses in individuals of different age. In this chapter, we propose a method for PBMC treatment with polyphenols and analysis designed on age-dependent qualitative and quantitative variability in immune cell performance.
