Cutting Edge: Distinct Glycolytic and Lipid Oxidative Metabolic Programs Are Essential for Effector and Regulatory CD4+ T Cell Subsets

TL;DR: Teff and Treg were selectively increased in Glut1 transgenic mice and reliant on glucose metabolism, whereas Treg had activated AMP-activated protein kinase and were dependent on lipid oxidation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The glucose transporter Glut1 is selectively essential for CD4 T cell activation and effector function.

TL;DR: These data show a selective in vivo requirement for Glut1 in metabolic reprogramming of CD4 T cell activation and Teff expansion and survival and a selection of Treg cells that appeared functionally unaffected and able to suppress Teff, irrespective of Glut 1 expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic Reprogramming of Macrophages GLUCOSE TRANSPORTER 1 (GLUT1)-MEDIATED GLUCOSE METABOLISM DRIVES A PROINFLAMMATORY PHENOTYPE

TL;DR: It is reported that GLUT1 (SLC2A1) is the primary rate-limiting glucose transporter on proinflammatory-polarized MΦs, which may play an integral role in the promotion of obesity-associated insulin resistance.
