Abstract
Zhou et al. show that monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), generated by stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD), support B cell mitochondrial metabolism and mTOR activity and promote B cell development and humoral immune responses. These data establish MUFA availability as a key regulator for humoral immunity and a potential therapeutic target.
