Animals experience frequent immune challenges as bacterial insults can originate from many different situations. An activated immune system requires energy in the form of glucose and the literature suggests that glucose homeostasis is disrupted during an endotoxin challenge.2 Consequently, there is a negative glucose balance that likely limits the immune response and certainly limits growth. The objective of the study was to quantify the amount of glucose needed to maintain euglycemia (normal blood glucose level) during an immune challenge. Learn more
