It has been suggested that the modulation of intestinal microbiota by the use of prebiotics in obese mice can act favorably on the intestinal barrier, w…
Double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR) represents a core component that integrates pathogen response and metabolic pathways that plays a critical role in metabolic homeostasis by controlling the action of major players such as JNK and IKK.
