TITLE: "Quantification of Absolute Metabolite Concentrations in T cells by Shotgun Metabolomics." ABSTRACT: Quantitative understanding of immunometabolism underlies improving immune functions and developing successful immunotherapies. Kinetic and thermodynamic laws rely on absolute, not relative, metabolite concentrations to map metabolism. However, until now, comprehensive absolute metabolite quantification has been inaccessible due to the need for iterative analytical […]
