In vivo evidences that insulin regulates human polymorphonuclear neutrophil functionsS Walrand
Unité du Métabolisme Protéino Energétique, UMR Université d Auvergne INRA CHU de Clermont Ferrand Cedex 1, France
J Leukoc Biol 76:1104-10. 2004..05). Therefore, insulin treatment may modulate PMN functions not only by attainment of a better metabolic control, as suggested by in vivo studies in diabetic patients, but also through a direct effect of insulin...
Protein synthesis rates of human PBMC and PMN can be determined simultaneously in vivo by using small blood samplesStephane Walrand
Unité du Métabolisme Protéino Energétique, UMR Université d Auvergne Insitut National de la Recherche Agronomique, Centre de Recherche en Nutrition Humain, centre hospitalier universitaire de Clermont Ferrand, France

Aging: a barrier to renutrition? Nutritional and immunologic evidence in ratsS Walrand
Laboratoire de Biochimie, Biologie Moléculaire et Nutrition, Faculte de Pharmacie, Centre de Recherche en Nutrition Humaine, Clermont Ferrand, France
Am J Clin Nutr 72:816-24. 2000..Previous reports suggest that correcting the malnourished state is more difficult in elderly people than in younger ones and that protein requirements may be higher in elderly than in younger adults...
Specific and nonspecific immune responses to fasting and refeeding differ in healthy young adult and elderly personsS Walrand
