Abstract excerpt
The objective of this investigation was to determine whether an imbalance between naive- and memory-phenotype cells occurs within CD4+ and/or CD8+ splenic T cell subsets in models of protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) which produce wasting disease (loss of approximately 1.6% of body weight per day...
