Reversal of Abnormal CD4+ T Cell Metabolism Alleviates Thyroiditis by Deactivating the mTOR/HIF1a/Glycolysis Pathway

BackgroundHashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) is an autoimmune disease that features activation of thyroid antigen-specific helper T cells. HT patients have increased Th1 and Th17 T cell subsets. Glycolysis supports chronic activation of Th1 and Th17 T cells, but how this contributes to HT remains unknown....
