    Abstract The function and phenotype of macrophages are intimately linked with pathogen detection. On sensing pathogen-derived signals and molecules, macrophages undergo a carefully orchestrated process of polarization to acquire pathogen-clearing properties. This phenotypic change must be adequately supported by metabolic reprogramming that is now known to support the acquisition of effector function, but also generates secondary metabolites with direct microbicidal activity. At the same time, bacteria themselves have adapted to both manipulate and take advantage of macrophage-specific metabolic adaptations. Here, we summarize the current knowledge on macrophage metabolism during infection, with a particular focus on understanding the 'arms race' between host immune cells and bacteria during immune responses.

    Abstract Immunomodulatory T cells play a pivotal role in protection against (auto)immune-mediated diseases that open perspectives for therapeutic modulation. However, how immune regulatory networks operate in vivo is less understood. To this end, we focused on FOXP3+CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) and invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells, two lymphocyte populations that independently regulate adaptive and innate immune responses. In vitro, a functional interplay between Tregs and iNKT cells has been described, but whether Tregs modulate the function and phenotype of iNKT cell subsets in vivo and whether this controls iNKT-mediated autoimmunity is unclear. Taking advantage of the conditional depletion of Tregs, we examined the in vivo interplay between iNKT and Treg cells in steady state and in preclinical models of liver and gut autoimmunity. Under non-inflamed conditions, Treg depletion enhanced glycolipid-mediated iNKT cell responses, with a general impact on Type 1, 2 and 17 iNKT subsets. Moreover, in vivo iNKT activation in the absence of Tregs suppressed the induction of iNKT anergy, consistent with a reduction in programmed cell death receptor 1 (PD-1) expression. Importantly, we unveiled a clear role for an in vivo Treg-iNKT crosstalk both in concanavalin A-induced acute hepatitis and oxazolone-induced colitis. Here, the absence of Tregs led to a markedly enhanced liver and gut pathology, which was not observed in iNKT-deficient mice. Taken together, these results provide evidence for a functional interplay between regulatory T cell subsets critical in controlling the onset of autoimmune disease.

    Abstract Dendritic cells (DCs) are key orchestrators of immunity and tolerance. It has become evident that DC function can be influenced by cellular metabolic programs. However, conclusions from early metabolic studies using in vitro GM-CSF DC cultures fail to correlate with bona fide DC populations. Here, we discuss the existing paradigms in the DC metabolism field, focusing on the limitations of the models utilized. Furthermore, we introduce alternative models to generate DCs in vitro that better emulate DCs found in vivo. Finally, we highlight new techniques to evaluate DC metabolism at the single-cell level. The combination of these two strategies could help advance the DC metabolism field towards a more physiological understanding, which is crucial for the development of effective DC-based therapies.

    Abstract The progression through different steps of T-cell development, activation, and effector function is tightly bound to specific cellular metabolic processes. Previous studies established that T-effector cells have a metabolic bias toward aerobic glycolysis, whereas naive and regulatory T cells mainly rely on oxidative phosphorylation. More recently, the field of immunometabolism has drifted away from the notion that mitochondrial metabolism holds little importance in T-cell activation and function. Of note, T cells possess metabolic promiscuity, which allows them to adapt their nutritional requirements according to the tissue environment. Altogether, the integration of these metabolic pathways culminates in the generation of not only energy but also intermediates, which can regulate epigenetic programs, leading to changes in T-cell fate. In this review, we discuss the recent literature on how glycolysis, amino acid catabolism, and fatty acid oxidation work together with the tricarboxylic acid cycle in the mitochondrion. We also emphasize the importance of the electron transport chain for T-cell immunity. We also discuss novel findings highlighting the role of key enzymes, accessory pathways, and posttranslational protein modifications that distinctively regulate T-cell function and might represent prominent candidates for therapeutic purposes.
