microRNAs in mycobacterial disease: friend or foe?
As the role of microRNA in all aspects of biology continues to be unraveled, the interplay between microRNAs and human disease is becoming clearer. It should come of no surprise that microRNAs play a major part in the outcome of infectious diseases, since early work has implicated microRNAs as regulators of the immune response. Here, we provide a review on how microRNAs influence the course of ...
متن کاملPPARγ in Bacterial Infections: A Friend or Foe?
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) is now recognized as an important modulator of leukocyte inflammatory responses and function. Its immunoregulatory function has been studied in a variety of contexts, including bacterial infections of the lungs and central nervous system, sepsis, and conditions such as chronic granulomatous disease. Although it is generally believed that PPAR...
متن کاملGlutamine supplementation in the critically ill: friend or foe?
In the previous issue of Critical Care, Mori and colleagues demonstrate that glutamine supplementation in mechanically ventilated patients as part of parenteral nutrition increases plasma glutamine concentration and glutamine utilization, but does not mitigate protein degradation and even increases de novo glutamine production. Studies suggest that protein degradation is regulated by the degree...

متن کاملErythropoietin: friend and foe!
Our knowledge of the erythropoietin (Epo) molecule has come a long way since Carnot and Deflandre’s landmark observations, over a century ago, attributing the increase in red blood cells to a factor called ‘hemopoietin’. For decades, the scientific community thought that the role of Epo was limited to red blood cell production. However, since the mid 1990s, Epo has been shown to exert numerous ...
