    Notes: Abstract: The effects of mild stress on nonoxidative glucose metabolism were studied in the brain of the freely moving rat. Extracellular lactate levels in the hippocampus and striatum were monitored at 2.5-min intervals with microdialysis coupled with an enzyme-based flow injection analysis system. Ten minutes of restraint stress led to a 235% increase in extracellular lactate levels in the striatum. A 5-min tail pinch caused an increase of 193% in the striatum and 170% in the hippocampus. Local application of tetrodotoxin in the striatum blocked the rise in lactate following tail pinch and inhibited the subsequent clearance of lactate from the extracellular fluid. Local application of the noncompetitive N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor antagonist MK-801 had no effect on the tail pinch-stimulated increase in lactate in the striatum. These results show that mild physiological stimulation can lead to a rapid increase in nonoxidative glucose metabolism in the brain.

    ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channels and Local Energy Demands in the Rat Hippocampus: An In Vivo Study (1993)

    Notes: Abstract: Microdialysis coupled with an enzyme-based flow injection analysis was used to monitor brain extracellular lactate and glucose in the freely moving rat. Glucose levels reflect the balance between supply from the blood and local utilisation, and lactate efflux indicates the degree of local nonoxidative glucose metabolism. Local application of tolbutamide, a blocker of the ATP-sensitive potassium channel, decreased extracellular glucose and lactate levels in the hippocampus but not in the striatum. The increase in glucose and lactate levels following mild behavioural stimulation was also reduced by tolbutamide in the hippocampus. Similar effects on both basal and stimulated lactate levels were obtained with local application of 10 mMglucose. These results indicate that ATP-sensitive potassium channels are active under physiological conditions in the hippocampus and that the effects of tolbutamide can be mimicked by physiological glucose levels.

    Extracellular Brain Glucose Levels Reflect Local Neuronal Activity: A Microdialysis Study in Awake, Freely Moving Rats (1992)

    Notes: Abstract: The relationship between brain extracellular glucose levels and neuronal activity was evaluated using microdialysis in awake, freely moving rats. The sodium channel blocker tetrodotoxin and the depolarizing agent veratridine were administered through the dialysis probe to provoke local changes in neuronal activity. The extracellular glucose content was significantly increased in the presence of tetrodotoxin and decreased sharply following veratridine application. The systemic injection of a general anaesthetic, chloral hydrate, led to a large and prolonged increase in extracellular glucose levels. The brain extracellular glucose concentration was estimated by comparing dialysate glucose efflux over a range of inlet glucose concentrations. A mean value of 0.47 mM was obtained in five animals. The results are discussed in terms of the coupling between brain glucose supply and metabolism. The changes observed in extracellular glucose levels under various conditions suggest that supply and utilization may be less tightly linked in the awake rat than has previously been postulated.

    Dynamic Changes in Glucose and Lactate in the Cortex of the Freely Moving Rat Monitored Using Microdialysis (2000)

    Notes: Abstract: These experiments for the first time examine simultaneous changes in glucose and lactate in unanaesthetised animals during moderate hypoxia. Unanaesthetised rats were exposed to moderate hypoxia for a period of 15 min by reducing inspired oxygen to 8%. Changes in glucose and lactate were monitored in rat cortex using microdialysis and a novel dual enzyme-based assay. Samples of dialysate collected at 3-min intervals were assayed for both glucose and lactate. There was an early rapid rise of lactate that reached a peak at the end of the period of hypoxia followed by a steep decline. Glucose showed a very much smaller delayed increase that started during the period of hypoxia and continued beyond it. The origin of the rise in glucose is discussed, using the temporal relationship between the lactate and glucose changes.
