Caloric restriction mimetic 2-deoxyglucose alters metabolic and transcriptomic phenotype in association with changes in chromatin accessibility in human astrocytes
3 Jun 2025
Abstract excerpt
Caloric restriction and ketogenic diets may modify the progression of neurological disorders, including HIV-associated neurological disorders and Alzheimer's disease, in part by influencing astrocyte function. This study examines how metabolic substrate availability affects metabolic processes and gene expression in human astrocytes. We exposed astrocytes to the glycolysis inhibitor 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG), to...
