Depletion and activation of microglia impact metabolic connectivity of the mouse brain

Abstract: Aim We aimed to investigate the impact of microglial activity and microglial FDG uptake on metabolic connectivity, since microglial activation states determine FDG–PET alterations. Metabolic connectivity refers to a concept of interacting metabolic brain regions and receives growing interest in approaching complex cerebral metabolic networks in neurodegenerative diseases. However, underlying sources of metabolic connectivity remain to be elucidated. Materials and … Show more

“…It is also worth noting that non-neuronal cells, such as astrocytes or microglia, may be contributing toward the detected phosphorus signals, as has been previously reported for FDG-PET (Zimmer et al, 2017;Xiang et al, 2021;Gnörich et al, 2023). However, astrocytes are more reliant on glycolysis (Chen et al, 2023), and while resting state microglia may rely on OXPHOS, they are believed to switch to primarily using glycolysis to meet energy demands under inflammatory conditions (Lauro and Limatola, 2020), whereas neurons rely more on OXPHOS unless glucose is unavailable (Hall et al, 2012;Chen et al, 2023).…”

“…As alterations in HEP metabolites, ROS, and inflammation interact in their contribution to AD risk (Wang et al, 2020 ; Billingham et al, 2022 ), future studies pairing 31 P-MRS with PET imaging will provide useful information in the development of therapeutic and preventative strategies targeting mitochondrial dysfunction in AD. It is also worth noting that non-neuronal cells, such as astrocytes or microglia, may be contributing toward the detected phosphorus signals, as has been previously reported for FDG-PET (Zimmer et al, 2017 ; Xiang et al, 2021 ; Gnörich et al, 2023 ).

“…Another limitation is the lack of speci city regarding cell-speci c glucose uptake in the brain. While brain 18 F-FDG-PET is commonly believed to re ect neuronal and astrocytic glucose uptake, recent ndings suggest that activated microglia signi cantly contribute to cerebral glucose uptake (Gnörich et al, 2023;Xiang et al, 2021). The precise relationship between brain 18 F-FDG-PET and neuronal glucose uptake requires further elucidation.…”
