Ketone bodies are selectively used by individual brain regions

RA Hawkins, JF Biebuyck - Science, 1979 - science.org
Close study of 3-hydroxybutyrate uptake by brain suggests that its metabolism is limited by
permeability. Furthermore, the permeability characteristics vary from region to region; areas …
