Abstract
Metabolic alterations leading to overactivation of nutrient-energy-sensing pathways have been linked to altered immunological self-tolerance. Now, Zhang and colleagues (Immunity, 2019) have identified a key role for high glucose consumption in exacerbating autoimmunity in mice via induction of T helper (Th)17 cells. This reveals a novel mechanism underlying effects of diet during autoimmunity development with major translational implications.Entities:
