Neutrophils are required to meet their energy demands at inflamed sites where nutrients may be limited. Sadiku et al. provide evidence of a specialized metabolism that enables neutrophils to utilize glycogen cycling for energy production. This is essential for neutrophil function and survival, and dysregulation is associated with chronic disease states.

Abstract
Neutrophils are required to meet their energy demands at inflamed sites where nutrients may be limited. Sadiku et al. provide evidence of a specialized metabolism that enables neutrophils to utilize glycogen cycling for energy production. This is essential for neutrophil function and survival, and dysregulation is associated with chronic disease states.
