AMPK activates Parkin independent autophagy and improves post sepsis immune defense against secondary bacterial lung infections
Abstract Metabolic and bioenergetic plasticity of immune cells is essential for optimal responses to bacterial infections. AMPK and Parkin ubiquitin ligase are known to regulate mitochondrial quality control mitophagy that prevents unwanted inflammatory responses. However, it is not known if this ev...
