Astrocyte-Neuron Lactate Shuttle via SST-Mediated Metabolic Coupling (Deprioritize)
🧪 Overview
tFUS-activated EC-II SST interneurons trigger astrocytic Ca²⁺ waves via ATP release, stimulating glycolysis and lactate provision to EC-III pyramidal neurons, restoring their gamma generation capacity. Too indirect with too many unvalidated intermediate steps (SST→ATP→astrocyte Ca²⁺→glycolysis→lactate→EC-III neurons). ANLS hypothesis itself is controversial. No clear intervention lever.
