Estimados todos
Leí sus comentarios y me congratulo de su interes, volveremos sobre estos transportadores cuando veamos páncreas endocrino, sin embargo no hemos resuelto el problema, que pasa con estos transportadores en cerebro
Les envío la referencia de este artículo (lo pueden consultar en la Biblioteca Digital de la UNAM) para lo que esten interesados y podemos discutirlo en este espacio

Glucose is the obligate energetic fuel for the mammalian brain, and most studies of cerebral energy
metabolism assume that the majority of cerebral glucose utilization fuels neuronal activity via
oxidative metabolism, both in the basal and activated state. Glucose transporter (GLUT) proteins
deliver glucose from the circulation to the brain: GLUT1 in the microvascular endothelial cells of the
blood–brain barrier (BBB) and glia; GLUT3 in neurons. Lactate, the glycolytic product of glucose
metabolism, is transported into and out of neural cells by the monocarboxylate transporters (MCT):
MCT1 in the BBB and astrocytes and MCT2 in neurons. The proposal of the astrocyte–neuron lactate
shuttle hypothesis suggested that astrocytes play the primary role in cerebral glucose utilization
and generate lactate for neuronal energetics, especially during activation. Since the identification
of the GLUTs and MCTs in brain, much has been learned about their transport properties, that
is capacity and affinity for substrate, which must be considered in any model of cerebral glucose
uptake and utilization. Using concentrations and kinetic parameters of GLUT1 and -3 in BBB
endothelial cells, astrocytes, and neurons, along with the corresponding kinetic properties of the
MCTs, we have successfully modeled brain glucose and lactate levels as well as lactate transients in
response to neuronal stimulation. Simulations based on these parameters suggest that glucose
readily diffuses through the basal lamina and interstitium to neurons, which are primarily
responsible for glucose uptake, metabolism, and the generation of the lactate transients observed
on neuronal activation.
