Inhibition of glucose metabolism selectively targets autoreactive follicular helper T cells

T cell functions depend on distinct metabolic fluxes. Here the authors show different metabolic requirements of humoral responses to self versus microbial antigens: while glucose is dispensable for antiviral Tfh and antibody responses, it is essential to mount these responses against autoantigens.
