Obesity-induced inflammation is a risk factor for several acute and chronic pathologies. Investigating how metabolism can affect the immune response and how obesity, by affecting the systemic metabolism, modulates metabolism and cellular immune function will provide new mechanisms for understanding immunemetabolic regulation under different physiological and pathological conditions. Centr…
It is still not entirely elucidated how pathological conditions with excess of nutrients (glucose and lipids) and growth factors (leptin, insulin) in obesity and insulin resistance can modulate metabolic function of immune cells. Leptin is an adipokine produced by the adipose tissue and regulates food intake. Leptin concentration indicates the amount of energy available to be used by the …
