CD28 Autonomous Signaling Up-Regulates C-Myc Expression and Promotes Glycolysis Enabling Inflammatory T Cell Responses in Multiple Sclerosis

The immunopathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) depend on the expansion of specific inflammatory T cell subsets, which are key effectors of tissue damage and demyelination. Emerging studies evidence that a reprogramming of T cell metabolism may occur in MS, thus the identification of stimulatory molecules and associated signaling pathways coordinating the metabolic processes that amplify T cell inflammation in MS is pivotal.
