Transcriptomes Suggest That Pinniped and Cetacean Brains Have a High Capacity for Aerobic Metabolism While Reducing Energy-Intensive Processes Such as Synaptic Transmission

Cornelia Geßner, Alena Krüger, Lars P. Folkow, Wilfrid Fehrle et al. • Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience (2022)

The mammalian brain is characterized by high energy expenditure and small energy reserves, making it dependent on continuous vascular oxygen and nutritional supply. The brain is therefore extremely vulnerable to hypoxia. While neurons of mo...
