CD45RO+ cells in mice serve mostly as memory cells. The numbers of memory
cells increase with advancing age,depending on animal history (mostly
conventional vs. specific pathogen - free housing. I do not have figures for
PBL at hand, but for the murine spleen T cells it varies from around 20% in
the young (3 mo) to more than 60% in old SPF mice (say 2 years old).
Hope this helps -
