Several studies have shown that basophils play a role in maintaining homeostasis but can also contribute to pathology in various tissues and organs, including skin, lung, and others. Here, we provide an overview of recent basophil research, including cell development, characteristics, and functions.

While this combination holds great promise, a few key areas must be addressed, which include identifying the effects of metabolic modifiers on immune cell metabolism, the putative biomarkers of therapeutic efficacy, the efficacy of modifiers on tumors harboring metabolic heterogeneity, and the potential development of resistance due to tumor reliance on alternative metabolic pathways.
