So, here,

They say
" However, since GDF11 (potential CSEF) expression has been documented to be highly expressed in the immunological organs, including the spleen (the organ with highest expression) and the thymus (third highest expression), and the expression of GDF11 declines with age in these organs [20], it is reasonable to assume that GDF11 should impact the aged immune system. Since CSEF can be used for rejuvenating therapy for age-related changes to the CNS, muscle, and myocardium, it becomes increasingly important to determine how CSEF may affect the immune system: beneficial, detrimental, or otherwise. The work will help the rejuvenation of age-related risk factors to cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases [52,53]."
So does maximizing function or somehow inducting rejuvenation of these organs make more sense than trying to introduce endogenous gdf-11?
Thymic stem cells or ?
Thymic regeneration by a single transcriptikn factor
