J Nutr
. 2006 Apr;
136(5):1141-4.
PMID: 16614394
Protein-energy malnutrition is associated with a decrease in immunity and an increase in infectious disease. Both of these effects are exacerbated in aging. Conversely, energy restriction (ER) without malnutrition extends...

FASEB J
. 2005 Dec;
20(2):305-7.
PMID: 16371429
Immune function is suppressed in space flight, demonstrated by reduced mitogen-stimulated proliferation of postflight astronaut peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). While flight studies are limited, the development of rotating wall...
