Involvement of l-lactate in hippocampal dysfunction of type I diabetes
Hippocampal neurons play a crucial role in memory formation. Accumulating evidence raises the possibility that hippocampal sharp-wave ripples (SW-Rs) are involved in memory consolidation. Here, we examined in an animal model of diabetes and found the amplitude of SW-Rs in diabetic mice were smaller...

Summary: | Hippocampal neurons play a crucial role in memory formation. Accumulating evidence raises the possibility that hippocampal sharp-wave ripples (SW-Rs) are involved in memory consolidation. Here, we examined in an animal model of diabetes and found the amplitude of SW-Rs in diabetic mice were smaller than control group and were rescued by acute application of l-lactate, a major neural energy source. The cognitive impairment in diabetic mice was alleviated by intracerebroventricular l-lactate treatment. Our results suggested that l-lactate is important for hippocampal dysfunction in diabetes. |
