Starvation-induced regulation of carbohydrate transport at the blood-brain barrier is TGF-β-signaling dependent
2020-09-22
Abstract excerpt
During hunger or malnutrition animals prioritize alimentation of the brain over other organs to ensure its function and thus their survival. This so-called brain sparing is described from Drosophila to humans. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms adapting carbohydrate transport. Here, we used Drosophila genetics to unravel the mechanisms operating at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) under nutrient...
