β¦ Synopsis
Cedar St. New Haven C T 06510, USA Lactate is of special importance in brain metabolism. In the 198Os, noninvasive methods for measurement of lactate concentration and turnover rate in living brain by 'H and '% NMR spectroscopy were implemented in both animals and humans, opening the way to innovative examination of lactate's role in normal and deranged brain function. Early data on elevation of lactate in human visual cortex by physiologic stimulation and turnover of pathologically elevated brain lactate pools in animals and humans suggest that the new methods are likely to benefit clinical practice both directly-by providing information useful in management of individual patientsand indirectly-through improved understanding of disease processes.
