In this episode Dr Guerra provides a concise description of T lymphocytic fatty acid synthesis from glucose via cytosolic glycolysis, mitochondrialpyruvate dehydrogenase, pyruvate carboxylase, and citrate synthase and a return to the cytosol for ATP citrate lyase and the homodimeric polyprotein complex FAS to generate palmitoyl-ACP.
This ability of antigen-MHC Antigen Presenting Cell TCR - activated T lymphocytes to prepare for massive cytokine and chemokine expression requires a biochemical poise to use newly synthesized intracellular triacylglycerol to drive cellular exapnsion and effector-mediated immune responses.
