metformin and Infections, Orthomyxoviridae

metformin has been researched along with Infections, Orthomyxoviridae in 2 studies

Metformin: A biguanide hypoglycemic agent used in the treatment of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus not responding to dietary modification. Metformin improves glycemic control by improving insulin sensitivity and decreasing intestinal absorption of glucose. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p289)
metformin : A member of the class of guanidines that is biguanide the carrying two methyl substituents at position 1.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" As changes in T-cell mitochondrial oxidation were observed in obesity, obese mice were treated with metformin for 6 weeks and compared to lean control mice or obese mice undergoing weight loss through diet switch; immunity was measured by survival to influenza infection."3.96Targeting T-cell oxidative metabolism to improve influenza survival in a mouse model of obesity. ( Alwarawrah, Y; Beck, MA; Eisner, W; Green, WD; Hale, LP; Kiernan, K; MacIver, NJ; Nichols, AG; Warren, J, 2020)
