Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic Competition in the Tumor Microenvironment Is a Driver of Cancer Progression

TL;DR: It is shown that tumor-imposed metabolic restrictions can mediate T cell hyporesponsiveness during cancer, and it is found that blocking PD-L1 directly on tumors dampens glycolysis by inhibiting mTOR activity and decreasing expression of gly colysis enzymes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Helminth infections: the great neglected tropical diseases

TL;DR: New insights into fundamental helminth biology are accumulating through newly completed genome projects and the nascent application of transgenesis and RNA interference technologies, which should one day translate into a new and robust pipeline of drugs, diagnostics, and vaccines for targeting parasitic worms that infect humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic Pathways in Immune Cell Activation and Quiescence

TL;DR: This area will be the subject of this review, given that metabolic commitment is influenced not only by substrate availability but also by signaling pathways elicited by metabolites.
