Immunometabolism is an emerging research field that promises to generate novel targets for manipulation of functional responses in immune cells. Pioneering studies are beginning to unveil how innate sensing leads to metabolic reprogramming of immune cells. We became interested in the possible metabolic consequences of innate sensing by myeloid cells because of our previous work showing how mouse and human dendritic cell (DC) subsets detect danger signals from microbes and damaged tissues. Our current data show that sensing of live bacteria triggers a profound reorganisation of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) in macrophages, with a switch in the relative contribution of ETC…
