Effects of Hypoglycemia on Neuronal and Glial Cell Function

Funding Contact: NINDS Funding Coordinator
Funding Categories: Neural Environment

Brief Description:

This RFA solicits basic studies 1) to define the effect of varying glycemic levels on cerebral metabolism, transport of glucose across the blood brain barrier, and astrocytic regulation of substrates for neuronal metabolism, and 2) to determine pathological consequences of acute and recurrent hypoglycemic insult on cells of the central nervous system.
