Resumo

Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen-presenting cells with the ability to activate naive T cells and direct the adaptive cellular immune response toward a specific profile. This is important, as different pathogens demand specific ``profiles{''} of immune responses for their elimination. Such a goal is achieved depending on the maturation/activation status of DCs by the time of antigen presentation to T cells. Notwithstanding this, recent studies have shown that DCs alter their metabolic program to accommodate the functional changes in gene expression and protein synthesis that follow antigen recognition. In this review, we aim to summarize the data in the literature regarding the metabolic pathways involved with DC phenotypes and their functions. (AU)
