This book focuses on lipid metabolism in tumor immunity, covering the application of lipidomics in tumor immunity and all aspects of lipid metabolism in tumor microenvironment. During the progression of tumors, tumor cells and immune cells interact in a dynamic microenvironment. Targeting the immune system has a high potential for treating cancer. However, due to the high heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment, only a small percentage of patients experience such clinical benefits of tumor immunotherapy. Therefore, understanding the tumor microenvironment is crucial for tumor immunity. Recently, lipid metabolism is an emerging research direction and contributes to cell survival and biofunctions in tumor microenvironment, which is of great interest and significance to be elucidated. This book provides the doctors, researchers, and scientists with a cutting-edge overview of the lipid metabolism and its role in tumor immunity. It also yields benefits for pharmaceutical companies regarding drug discovery. 



Dr. Yongsheng Li now is Professor and Deputy Director of Clinical Medicine Research Center in Xinqiao Hospital, Army Medical University in Chongqing, China. He obtained his M.D. from Yunyang Medical College of Tongji Medical University in 2005 and his Ph.D. from Huazhong University of Science and Technology in 2009, respectively. After that, he was Research Fellow in Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. Later, from 2010 to 2015, he continued his post-doctoral training in Brigham and Women's Hospital in the USA as research fellow.
