Tóm tắt

In normal suckling-weanling mice,dl-β-hydroxybutyrate (30 mmol/kg ip) stimulated insulin secretion and reduced plasma glucose levels. In the brains of these animals, glucose levels were tripled due to a reduced rate of glucose utilization (determined by deoxyglucose phosphorylation). Other metabolite changes were compatible with inhibition of hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, glyceraldehyde-P-dehydrogenase, and pyruvate dehydrogenase activities. In contrast to the decrease in cerebral glycolysis, metabolite changes were compatible with an increase in the Krebs citric acid metabolic flux. The brain energy charge was also elevated. While it is generally believed that ketone bodies cannot sustain normal brain metabolism and function in theabsence of glucose,dl-β-hydroxybutyrate (20 or 30 mmol/kg ip) reversed insulin (100 U/kg sc)-induced hypoglycemia despite the persistence of a critically reduced plasma glucose concentration and near-zero brain glucose levels. Metabolic correlates of possible significance in the behavioral recovery from coma were reductions of the elevated levels of brain aspartate to below normal and ammonia levels to normal. Levels of acetyl CoA were unchanged both before and after treatment withβ-Hydroxybutyrate.
