| Title: | Magnesium for T cells: Strong to the finish! |
| Abstract: | ‘Popeye, the Sailor’ cartoons taught children that eating spinach boosts strength and helps defend against bullies. Lötscher and colleagues report that dietary deficiency of magnesium ions (Mg2+), against which eating spinach is an excellent antidote, impairs the activity of a key adhesion molecule, LFA-1, and hinders the ability of CD8+ T cells to grapple with assorted bullies, such as tumors and bacteria. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd |
