Abstract
In this article for the Highlights of 2024 Series, we discuss recent discoveries in Treg immunometabolism, which reveal how inflammatory niches alter Treg fate and function through distinct metabolic cues. Key findings include IL-21-driven mitochondrial dysfunction, lactate-enhanced OXPHOS via MGAT1, sphingolipid-dependent Treg differentiation in tumors, ferroptosis susceptibility under high-fat diets, and sex-specific adipose Treg subsets modulating glucose homeostasis. Together, these insights highlight potential metabolic targets to restore Treg function in inflammatory diseases and cancer.
期刊介绍:
The Australasian Society for Immunology Incorporated (ASI) was created by the amalgamation in 1991 of the Australian Society for Immunology, formed in 1970, and the New Zealand Society for Immunology, formed in 1975. The aim of the Society is to encourage and support the discipline of immunology in the Australasian region. It is a broadly based Society, embracing clinical and experimental, cellular and molecular immunology in humans and animals. The Society provides a network for the exchange of information and for collaboration within Australia, New Zealand and overseas. ASI members have been prominent in advancing biological and medical research worldwide. We seek to encourage the study of immunology in Australia and New Zealand and are active in introducing young scientists to the discipline.
