Dietary energy substrates reverse early neuronal hyperactivity in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease

Journal of neurochemistry

Deficient energy metabolism and network hyperactivity are the early symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In this study, we show that administration of exogenous oxidative energy substrates (OES) corrects neuronal energy supply deficiency that reduces the amyloid-beta-induced abnormal neuronal activity in vitro and the epileptic phenotype in AD model in vivo. In vitro, acute application of protofibrillar amyloid-β1-42 (Aβ1-42) induced aberrant network activity in wild-type hippocampal slices…
