Evolutionary history with chronic malnutrition enhances pathogen susceptibility at older ages

2024-10-05

Abstract excerpt

Juvenile malnutrition is a global public health concern that negatively impacts the development and maturation of the immune system, leading to increased susceptibility to infectious diseases. Such adverse effects on immunity might increase with ageing, worsening disease conditions later in life. Furthermore, malnutrition may persist across generations, imposing strong natural selection to survive the nutrient sho...
