Fatty acids are essential for survival, acting as bioenergetic substrates, structural
components and signalling molecules. Given their vital role, cells have evolved mechanisms …

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer and the second leading cause of
cancer-related death worldwide. Countless CRC patients undergo disease progression. As …

Cells metabolize nutrients for biosynthetic and bioenergetic needs to fuel growth and
proliferation. The uptake of nutrients from the environment and their intracellular metabolism …

Cytotoxic CD8+ T cells play a key role in the elimination of intracellular infections and
malignant cells and can provide long-term protective immunity. In the response to infection …

Tumors undergo metabolic transformations to sustain uncontrolled proliferation, avoid cell
death, and seed in secondary organs. An increased focus on cancer lipid metabolism has …

Through the successes of checkpoint blockade and adoptive cellular therapy,
immunotherapy has become an established treatment modality for cancer. Cellular …

Metabolic pathways and redox reactions are at the core of life. In the past decade (s),
numerous discoveries have shed light on how metabolic pathways determine the cellular …

Regulatory T cells (Treg cells) are essential for immune tolerance, but also drive
immunosuppression in the tumour microenvironment. Therapeutic targeting of Treg cells in …

Lipids are essential metabolites, which function as energy sources, structural components
and signalling mediators. Most cells are able to convert carbohydrates into fatty acids, which …

Adaptive immune responses mediated by T cells and B cells are crucial for protective
immunity against pathogens and tumors. Differentiation and function of immune cells require …
