Abstract
By infusing 15 different 13C-isotope tracers, Hui et al. quantify metabolic fluxes in mice on either high-carbohydrate or ketogenic diet. Results include interconversion fluxes between circulating metabolites and their contributions to the TCA cycle in 11 major organs. Rapid interconversion among circulating carbon carriers renders internal metabolic activity robust to diet.
