Results of studies presented in this article reveled that modulation of the immune cells activities by specific nutrients (glutamine, arginine, fatty acids) administered in amounts above those normally encountered in the diet may exert harmful effects on the immune system of the severely ill patients. The studies showed that one of the preconditions necessary to provide progress in treating those patients is to find out more about the impact of nutritional status, severe infections and immunonutrition on the expression of genes regulating innate antibacterial response.
