Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) are the major IFN-I-producing cells, but this production returns to baseline soon after viral infection. Here the authors show that this decrease in IFN-I production and related pDC functions may be attributed to suppressed oxidative and glycolytic metabolism of pDCs, with lactate dehydrogenase B identified as a regulator.
