Oleic acid triggers CD4 <sup>+</sup> T cells to be metabolically rewired and poised to differentiate into proinflammatory T cell subsets upon activation
2024-02-21
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> T cells are the most common immune cells in atherosclerotic plaques and the function of T cells can be altered by fatty acids. Here, we show that pre-exposure of CD4 + T cells to oleic acid, an abundant fatty acid linked to cardiovascular events, results in a preferential differentiation into pro-inflammatory subsets upon activation by upregulating core metabolic pathways. RNA-sequencing of non-...
