Rewiring monocyte glucose metabolism via C-type lectin signaling protects against disseminated candidiasis.

Monocytes are innate immune cells that play a pivotal role in antifungal immunity, but little is known regarding the cellular metabolic events that regulate their function during infection. Using complementary transcriptomic and immunological studies in human primary monocytes, we show that activati...
