Lactate dehydrogenase-1 may play a key role in the brain energy disturbance caused by cryptococcal meningitis
Background: Cryptococcal meningitis (CM) may affect the conversion of lactate to pyruvate in the brain, resulting in abnormal levels of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) throughout the brain. Lactate conversion to pyruvate is mainly caused by lactic dehydrogenase 1 (LDH1), which is composed of four LDHB...
