Some Aspects of Carbohydrate Metabolism in the Developing Brain

  • Chapter
Book cover Chemistry and Brain Development

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 13))

Abstract

The ground that I was called to cover is large and mainly unexplored. If you consider that most data on carbohydrate metabolism in nervous tissue have lately undergone drastic reappraisal in the light of recent experimental advances, you will understand why my exposé will look somewhat fragmentary. My only hope is that the very nature of the subject and its intrinsic complexity will prompt my colleagues to take the few data I shall review as a starting point for fruitful and critical discussion.
