Cellular metabolism is central to T cell function and proliferation, with most of the research to date focusing on cancer and autoimmunity. Cellular metabolism is associated with a host of physiological phenomena, from epigenetic changes, to cellular function and fate. For the purpose of this review, we will discuss the metabolism of T cells relating to their differentiation and function. We will cover a variety of metabolic processes, ranging from glycolysis to amino acid metabolism. Understanding how T cell metabolism informs T cell function may be useful to understand alloimmune responses and design novel therapies to improve graft outcome.
细胞代谢是 T 细胞功能和增殖的核心,迄今为止,大多数研究都集中在癌症和自身免疫上。细胞代谢与许多生理现象有关,从表观遗传变化到细胞功能和命运。为了进行本次综述,我们将讨论与 T 细胞分化和功能相关的代谢。我们将涵盖各种代谢过程,从糖酵解到氨基酸代谢。了解 T 细胞代谢如何影响 T 细胞功能,可能有助于理解同种免疫反应,并设计新的治疗方法来改善移植物的预后。
