Where this comes from

Abstract

In this issue of Cell Metabolism, Balmer et al. show that the timing and concentration of acetate exposure is critical to how it is metabolized by and affects the function of CD8 T cells. When abundantly present at the time of reactivation, acetate rewires CD8 T cell metabolism to suppress their reactivation and limit inflammation.
