Infection with respiratory syncytial virus alters peptidergic innervation in the lower airways of guinea-pigs.

abstract：NEW FINDINGS:What is the central question of this study? We investigated whether 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-beta-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR) could prevent acute increases in body fat and changes in omental and subcutaneous adipose tissue following the sudden transition from physical activity to physical inactivity. ...
