Abstract

That metabolic phenotype can dictate the function of macrophages has been widely demonstrated in vitro, however in vivo relevance of these findings has been lacking. Sverdberg et al., observe that the in vivo microenvironment shapes the ability of macrophages to utilize glucose and thus affects their responsiveness to stimuli.
