Brain glucose utilization in mice with a targeted mutation in the thyroid hormone α or β receptor gene

Itoh, Yoshiaki, Esaki, Takanori, Kaneshige, Masahiro, Suzuki, Hideyo, Cook, Michelle, Sokoloff, Louis, ...

Brain glucose utilization is markedly depressed in adult rats made cretinous after birth. To ascertain which subtype of thyroid hormone (TH) receptors, TRα1 or TRβ, is involved in the regulation of...

Dichloroacetate effects on glucose and lactate oxidation by neurons and astroglia in vitro and on glucose utilization by brain in vivo

Itoh, Yoshiaki, Esaki, Takanori, Shimoji, Kazuaki, Cook, Michelle, Law, Mona J., Kaufman, Elaine, ...

Neuronal cultures in vitro readily oxidized both D-[14C]glucose and l-[14C]lactate to 14CO2, whereas astroglial cultures oxidized both substrates sparingly and metabolized glucose predominantly to...

Developmental disruption of serotonin transporter function impairs cerebral responses to whisker stimulation in mice

Esaki, Takanori, Cook, Michelle, Shimoji, Kazuaki, Murphy, Dennis L., Sokoloff, Louis, Holmes, Andrew

There is growing evidence that serotonin (5-hydroxtryptamine, 5-HT) has major influences on brain development in mammals. Genetic and pharmacological disruption of 5-HT signaling during early...
