In this review, we summarize and briefly discuss various approaches to modeling the metabolism in human immune cells, with a focus on energy metabolism. These approaches include metabolic reconstruction, elementary modes, and flux balance analysis, which are often subsumed under constraint-based modeling. Further approaches are evolutionary game theory and kinetic modeling. Many immune cells such as macrophages show the Warburg effect, meaning that glycolysis is upregulated upon activation. We outline a minimal model for explaining t
