Moderate and severe hypoglycaemia associated metabolic changes in cortex and hippocampus of mice

Pitchaimani Vigneshwaran

Objective: It is common in the clinical setting that the reperfusion of glucose after severe hypoglycaemia. Starvation leads to decrease in blood glucose level (BGL) and this shifts the brain to utilize less glucose and utilize other alternative fuels. This led us investigate how the brain decreases the glucose uptake during starvation and how it utilizes the glucose under severe hypoglycaemia.Results: To understand the mechanism we checked the neuronal ...
