ADAPTATION AGAINST LONG-TERM PROTEIN DEPRIVATION TRADES OFF WITH IMMUNOCOMPETENCE AND THE ABILITY TO SURVIVE PATHOGENIC INFECTIONS
2025-09-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Insufficient protein intake, leading to malnutrition, is a major global health concern that compromises the immune system and increases susceptibility to diseases. In scenarios where protein availability is constrained, organisms may experience strong selection to efficiently allocate their resources between immunity vs other energy-demanding processes, such as reproduction, resulting in evoluti...
