Therapeutic exploration and understanding of the specific intracellular metabolic pathways in immune cells
Special Collection Editor: Associate Professor Marianne Boes, University Medical Center Utrecht, Netherlands
The field of immunometabolism has matured into a vibrant translational research area in the last decade. Immunometabolism concerns the interplay of immunological and metabolic processes in health and disease, and can be a major influencing factor and driver in other conditions like autoimmune and infectious diseases, cancer and obesity.
This Special Collection curated by Immunotherapy Advances' Regional Editor for Europe, Prof Marianne Boes, aims to provide a comprehensive overview on metabolites and micronutrients in both hosts and pathogens and how they contribute to driving immune responses. The collection highlights developments in the field of translational immunometabolism, including its role in the treatment of COVID-19, cardiovascular disease and cancer.
