Regulation of host metabolism and defense strategies to survive neonatal infection
2024-02-27
Abstract excerpt
Two distinct defense strategies, resistance and tolerance, enable a host to survive infectious diseases. Newborns, constrained by limited energy reserves, predominantly rely on tolerance to cope with infection. However, this approach may fail as pathogen levels surpass a critical threshold, prompting a shift to resistance that can lead to dysregulated immune responses and sepsis. The mechanisms governing the inter...
