Abstract

Metabolic states within cells are tightly linked to functional outcomes and finely regulated by nutrient availability. A growing body of the literature supports the idea that various metabolites can influence cellular functions, such as cell differentiation, migration, and proliferation in different contexts, with ample evidence coming from the immune system. Additionally, certain functional programs can trigger significant metabolic changes within cells, which are crucial not only to meet high energy demands, but also to produce intermediate metabolites necessary to support specific tasks. Microglia, the resident innate immune cells of the central nervous system, are constantly active, surveying the brain parenchyma and providing support to neighboring cells in the brain. They exhibit high metabolic flexibility, capable of quickly undergoing metabolic reprogramming based on nutrient availability and functional requirements. In this chapter, we will discuss the major metabolic pathways within cells and provide examples of how relevant enzymes and metabolites can impact microglial function in physiologic and pathologic contexts.

期刊介绍： The Handbook of Clinical Neurology (HCN) was originally conceived and edited by Pierre Vinken and George Bruyn as a prestigious, multivolume reference work that would cover all the disorders encountered by clinicians and researchers engaged in neurology and allied fields. The first series of the Handbook (Volumes 1-44) was published between 1968 and 1982 and was followed by a second series (Volumes 45-78), guided by the same editors, which concluded in 2002. By that time, the Handbook had come to represent one of the largest scientific works ever published. In 2002, Professors Michael J. Aminoff, François Boller, and Dick F. Swaab took on the responsibility of supervising the third (current) series, the first volumes of which published in 2003. They have designed this series to encompass both clinical neurology and also the basic and clinical neurosciences that are its underpinning. Given the enormity and complexity of the accumulating literature, it is almost impossible to keep abreast of developments in the field, thus providing the raison d''être for the series. The series will thus appeal to clinicians and investigators alike, providing to each an added dimension. Now, more than 140 volumes after it began, the Handbook of Clinical Neurology series has an unparalleled reputation for providing the latest information on fundamental research on the operation of the nervous system in health and disease, comprehensive clinical information on neurological and related disorders, and up-to-date treatment protocols.
