Astrocytes Couple Synaptic Activity to Glucose Utilization in the Brain.
Astrocytes have functional characteristics that make them particularly well suited to couple glutamate uptake from the synaptic cleft to Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activation and glucose utilization. The changes in glucose metabolism associated with these processes may provide signals detected by positron emission tomography.
متن کاملGABA uptake into astrocytes is not associated with significant metabolic cost: implications for brain imaging of inhibitory transmission.
Synaptically released glutamate has been identified as a signal coupling excitatory neuronal activity to increased glucose utilization. The proposed mechanism of this coupling involves glutamate uptake into astrocytes resulting in increased intracellular Na+ (Nai+) and activation of the Na+/K+-ATPase. Increased metabolic demand linked to disruption of Nai+ homeostasis activates glucose uptake a...
متن کاملNIPS.October.Final Notebook
ogy, postulated over one hundred years ago, are finally finding experimental support. Thus, in a seminal article published in 1890, Charles Sherrington suggested that the brain possesses intrinsic mechanisms to regulate the availability of energy substrates in correspondence with local variations of functional activity (see Ref. 15). Although the article focused primarily on blood flow, the not...
متن کاملGlial Glutamate Transporters Mediate a Functional Metabolic Crosstalk between Neurons and Astrocytes in the Mouse Developing Cortex
Neuron-glia interactions are essential for synaptic function, and glial glutamate (re)uptake plays a key role at glutamatergic synapses. In knockout mice, for either glial glutamate transporters, GLAST or GLT-1, a classical metabolic response to synaptic activation (i.e., enhancement of glucose utilization) is decreased at an early functional stage in the somatosensory barrel cortex following a...
متن کاملActivity-dependent regulation of energy metabolism by astrocytes: an update.
Astrocytes play a critical role in the regulation of brain metabolic responses to activity. One detailed mechanism proposed to describe the role of astrocytes in some of these responses has come to be known as the astrocyte-neuron lactate shuttle hypothesis (ANLSH). Although controversial, the original concept of a coupling mechanism between neuronal activity and glucose utilization that involv...
