Title: Defend or reproduce? Muscle-derived glutamate determines an immune/reproductive energetic tradeoff
Authors: Mineo, A
Miguel-Aliaga, I
Item Type: Journal Article
Abstract: There are dramatic disparities in infection susceptibility within populations. In this issue of Cell Metabolism, Zhao and Karpac uncover a muscle-adipose-gut axis in Drosophila that explains variability in pathogen susceptibility. The degree of intramuscular NF-kB activation accounts for differences in circulating glutamate, which enhances resistance at the expense of reproduction.
