Mitochondrial pyruvate import in astrocytes links anaplerosis to seizure resistance

Darío García-Rodríguez, Sara Yunta-Sanchez, Marta Antequera-Duwell, Luisa Hidalgo-Lopez, Jesús Agulla, Leticia Sancha-Ortega, Rebeca Lapresa, Emilio Fernández, Irene Martínez‐Gallego, Adrian Sanchez-Gallego, Juan Fernández-García, Sandra Plaza‐García, Ilana Keren, Mohar Chattopadhyay, Simon D. Eaton, , Juan Pedro Bolaños

This study shows that mitochondrial pyruvate import in astrocytes is essential for maintaining neurotransmitter homeostasis and seizure resistance, rather than primarily for bioenergetic purposes.

Astrocytic glycolysis attenuates mitochondrial efficiency to preserve cognition

Paula Alonso-Batan, Daniel Jiménez-Blasco, Jesús Agulla, Rebeca Lapresa, Marta Antequera-Duwell, Sara Yunta-Sanchez, Brenda Morant-Ferrando, Darío García-Rodríguez, Rebeca Acín‐Pérez, Verónica Bobo-Jiménez, Leticia Sancha-Ortega, Regina Mengual, Silvia Gomila, Sonia González-Guerrero, E J García Fernández, , Juan Pedro Bolaños

This study identifies Pfkfb3 as essential for astrocytic glycolysis, which preserves cognition by reducing mitochondrial efficiency and redirecting pyruvate to neurons.
