Effect of enteral glutamine supplementation for low-birth-weight infants on weight gain patterns and levels of fecal secretory immunoglobulin A [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Aim: Glutamine is needed for optimal cell growth and for the immune system, especially in the enterocytes of gut mucosal immune responses. Low birth weight makes infants susceptible to glutamine depletion because nutrition is limited in the first week of
