Metabolites as signals in immunity and inflammation describes the revolution in the definition of the word metabolism. It highlights changes in thinking about the whole field of immunology. These changes occur thanks to breakthrough experiments in basic research with the help of new technologies allowing to test immunology hypotheses.In recent years a substantial number of findings have been made around immunometabolism, by which the changes in intracellular metabolic pathways in immune cells that alter their function are meant. What is emerging is a complex interplay between metabolic reprogramming and immunity, which is providing an extra dimension to our understanding of the immune system in health and diseaseAfter reading this book readers will realize countless opportunities in altering cell fate leading to outcome of diseases by altering metabolic pathways. Metabolites as signals in immunity and inflammation is a must for those wanting to dive into this novel field of iimmunometabolism.
