Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential of Nutritional Immunity

2025-11-27

Abstract excerpt

Nutritional immunity is a major facet of host defense, wherein the host immune system strategically limits pathogen access to critical nutrients, including iron, zinc, vitamins, lipids, and amino acids, to repress microbial proliferation and virulence. This review provides a comprehensive synthesis of the molecular mechanisms that power nutrient immunity, including metal homeostasis, transporter modulation, hormon...
