**Molecular Mechanism and Rationale** Grid cells in layer II of the entorhinal cortex (EC) exhibit unique firing patterns that create a hexagonal spatial coordinate system, fundamental to spatial navigation and memory formation. These neurons maintain continuous high-frequency firing during active navigation, creating extraordinary metabolic demands that exceed those of typical cortical neurons by 3-4 fold. The hypothesis centers on enhancing the astrocyte-neuron lactate shuttle (ANLS) specific...
