Abstract
T cells promote inflammation in obesity, but how metabolic stress associated with obesity alters T cell responses remains unclear. In this issue of Cell Metabolism,Mauro et al. (2017) demonstrate that saturated fatty acids directly increase effector-memory T cell formation by amplifying T cell antigen-receptor-induced PI3K/Akt signaling.Entities:
