Relationship between intracranial hemodynamics and microdialysis markers of energy metabolism and glutamate-glutamine turnover in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Clinical article.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECT: The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between hemodynamics (intracranial and systemic) and brain tissue energy metabolism, and between hemodynamics and glutamate (Glt)-glutamine (Gln) cycle activity. METHODS: Brain ... Read more...

Effect of pyruvate, lactate and insulin on ATP supply and demand in unpaced perfused rat heart.

10 Oct 2009 Mitochondrial respiration/oxidative phosphorylation is the main source of energy, in the form of ATP, in the heart under physiological conditions. Different respiratory substrates were used in various experiments during heart perfusion: glucose, ... Read more...
