Microbiota’s No Wasting Policy
نویسنده
چکیده
Schieber et al. demonstrate that a specific gut microbiota bacterial strain induces a host-mediated protection mechanism against inflammation-driven wasting syndrome. This salutary effect confers a net survival advantage against bacterial infection, without interfering with the host's pathogen load, revealing that host-microbiota interactions regulate disease tolerance to infection.

متن کاملResearch Priorities on the Relationship between Wasting and Stunting
BACKGROUND Wasting and stunting are global public health problems that frequently co-exist. However, they are usually separated in terms of policy, guidance, programming and financing.
