Glucose transporters (GLUTs) at the blood-brain barrier maintain the continuous high
glucose and energy demands of the brain. They also act as therapeutic targets and provide …

Glucose had long been thought to fuel oxidative metabolism in active neurons until the
recently proposed astrocyte-neuron lactate shuttle hypothesis (ANLSH) challenged this …

OBJECTIVE The study was undertaken to measure baseline values for chemical markers in
human subjects during wakefulness, anesthesia, and neurosurgery, using intracerebral …

There are two mechanisms for glucose transport across cell membranes. In the intestine and
renal proximal tubule, glucose is transported against a concentration gradient by a …

Traditional beliefs about two aspects of glucose regulation in the brain have been
challenged by recent findings. First, the absolute level of glucose in the brain's extracellular …

The activities of hexokinase, aldolase, pyruvate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase and glucose
6-phosphate dehydrogenase were determined in brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease …

The concentration of glucose in the brain's extracellularfluid remains controversial, with
recent estimates and measurements rangingfrom 0.35 to 3.3 mM. In the present …

The aim of this work was to study the distribution and cellular localization of GLUT2 in the rat
brain by light and electron microscopic immunohistochemistry, whereas our ultrastructural …

Abstract Study Objectives: An ideal biomarker for sleep should change rapidly with sleep
onset, remain at a detectably differential level throughout the sleep period, and exhibit a …

On the basis of lesions of different brain areas, several neural systems appear to be
important for processing information regarding different types of learning and memory. This …
