It is recognized that brain oxygen deprivation results in increased glycolysis and lactate accumulation. Moreover, glucose metabolism is altered during starvation or diet, resulting in increased plasma ketones (acetoacetate + beta-hydroxybutyrate; BHB). We investigated glucose and lactate adaptation to hypoxia in concurrence with diet-induced ketosis. Male Wistar rats were fed standard (STD), ketogenic (high fat; KG), or carbohydrate-rich (low fat; CHO) diets for 3 wks and then exposed to hypobaric (0.5 ATM) or normobaric atmosphere for 3 wks while on their diets. Lactate, ketones, and glucose concentrations were measured in plasma (mM) and brain tissue (mmol/g). Plasma and tissue ketone levels were elevated up to 12-fold in the KG fed groups compared with other groups (STD and CHO), with the hypoxic KG group reaching the highest levels (2.6 +/- 1.3 mM and 0.3 +/- 0.1 mmol/g; mean +/- SD). Tissue lactate levels in the hypoxic ketotic rats (4.7 +/- 1.3 mM) were comparable with normoxic STD (5.0 +/- 0.7 mM) and significantly lower (ANOVA P < .05) than the hypoxic STD rats (6.1 +/- 1.0 mM). These data indicate that adaptation to hypoxia did not interfere with ketosis, and that ketosis during hypoxia may lower lactate levels in brain, suggesting decreased glycolysis or increased glucose disposal.
