Immunometabolism is an emerging field at the intersection of immunology and metabolism. Immune cell activation plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases and is integral for regeneration during cardiac injury. We currently possess a limited understanding of the processes governing metabolic interactions between immune cells and cardiomyocytes. The impact of this intercellular crosstalk can manifest as alterations to the steady state flux of metabolites and impact cardiac contractile function. Although much of our knowledge is derived from acute inflammatory response, recent work emphasizes heterogeneity and flexibility in metabolism between cardiomyocytes and immune cells during pathological states, including ischemic, cardiometabolic, and cancer-associated disease. Metabolic adaptation is crucial because it influences immune cell activation, cytokine release, and potential therapeutic vulnerabilities. This review describes current concepts about immunometabolic regulation in the heart, focusing on intercellular crosstalk and intrinsic factors driving cellular regulation. We discuss experimental approaches to measure the cardio-immunologic crosstalk, which are necessary to uncover unknown mechanisms underlying the immune and cardiac interface. Deeper insight into these axes holds promise for therapeutic strategies that optimize cardioimmunology crosstalk for cardiac health.
