Research Abstract

The glucose metabolism and the changes in energy state and biological active substances in the brain during hypoxia and ischemia were investigated by ^<13>C, ^<31>P and ^1H NMR spectroscopy. Male Wistar rats were anesthetized with ketamine (50-75mg/kg i.p.) and ventilated mechanically with a mixture of 30% O_2, 69.5% N_2 and 0.5% halothane. [1-^<13>C]glucose (250Mg/kg) was infused twice through femoral vein at 10 min interval. [1-^<13>C]Glucose infusion gave apparent signals of C1 position in - and - anomers of [1-^<13>C]glucose at 92.7 and 96.7 ppm, respectively. Signals of C2, C3 and C4 positions in glutamate (glu) also appeared at 55, 27 and 34 ppm, respectively. The intensity of glu-C2 and glu-C3 signals increased later than that of glu-C4. The time lag between the glu signals may reflect the turnover rate of the TCA cycle. In the hypoxic experiments, O_2 concentration in the inspiratory gas was reduced to 6-7% (93-94% N_2). During hypoxia, the signal of lactate-^<13>C3 appeared at … More 21 ppm and increased, and the -glucose signal diminished, whereas the -glucose signal kept its intensity. The difference in changes of the signal intensity between -and -glucose suggests that -glucose is consumed more than -glucose in the hypoxic brain. Under similar hypoxic condition, the ^<31>P signal intensity of creatine phosphate (pcr) decreased by 27% but the signal of ATP was unchanged in 30min. In the ^1H spectra, increase in the lactate-CH_3 signal also suggests the enhancement of anaerobic glycolisis in hypoxic brain.
Mongolian gerbils were anesthetized with pentobarbital (35mg/kg, i.p.). A bolus of [1-^<13>C]-glucose (500mg/kg) was injected into femoral vein. Forbrain ischemia by bilateral common carotid occlusion was induced 15min after the glucose injection. In the ischemic brain, signals of both - and -glucose rapidly disappeared, and the signal of lactate- ^<13>C3 became prominent. The glutamate signals did not appeare during ischemia and even in post-ischemia. In the ^<31>P spectra, signals of both Pcr and ATP disappeared. Thereford, not only energy charge but also glutamate synthesis may be deperssed in the ischemic brain. Less
