Figure 6.
Brain metabolite levels of the glycolytic pathway after KE ingestion. Levels of brain glycolytic intermediates were assessed by LC-MS 30 min after the ingestion of KE (3 mg KE/g of body weight) or 0.9% NaCl. Plasma glucose and βHB levels were measured using an enzymatic assay shortly before cerebral dislocation (n = 10). ND: not detected; NS: not significant. (MCT: monocarboxylate transporters; Glut: glucose transporters; G6P: glucose-6-phosphate; F6P: fructose-6-phosphate; FBP: fructose-1,6-biphosphate; G3P: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate; PG: phosphoglycerate; PEP: phosphoenolpyruvate).
