'The new @Molecular_Cell special issue focuses on the #mitochondria. The review articles in this issue focus on the diverse cellular processes involving mitochondria and the approaches used to study them. Take a look. https://hubs.li/Q01J2qN20

Effector CD8 T cells - fragmented mitochondria but glycolytic
Memory CD8 T cells - elongated mitochondria but use FAO and OXPHOS
Opposite way around to mechanism described by NGO et al.
🤔 Food for thought..
Other Immunometabolism examples? Reply..

Oooooo, what’s that…mitochondria morphology controls Fatty acid oxidation (FAO). 🤔
Fragmented - CPT1 more active - ⬆️ FAO.
Elongated - CPT1 more sensitive to inhibition - ⬇️ FAO
Does this fit with what we know about Immunometabolism? 🤔🤨🧐

The theory of quaternions was born when a sudden thought came to William Rowan Hamilton as he was walking with his wife along the Royal Canal in Dublin, Ireland. It was the fundamental formula:

We shouldn't listen to people because we agree with what they think. We should listen when we're impressed by how they think.
