What is Glia-Neuron Metabolism: Insights & Roles about?

This article reviews the critical role of metabolic transporters in energy metabolism within the nervous system, highlighting the importance of glucose and lactate as energy substrates. It discusses the controversial astrocyte-neuron lactate shuttle hypothesis, which suggests that lactate, produced by astrocytes, serves as a preferred energy source for neurons, particularly during high metabolic demand. The paper emphasizes the interdependent relationship between glial cells and neurons in maintaining energ
