Monocarboxylate transporter (MCT1) levels in brains of adult Long-Evans rats on a high-fat (ketogenic) diet were investigated using light and electron microscopic immunocytochemical methods. Rats given the ketogenic diet (91% fat and 9% protein) for up to 6 weeks had increased levels of the monocarboxylate transporter MCT1 (and of the glucose transporter GLUT1) in brain endothelial cells and neuropil compared to rats on a standard diet. In ketonemic rats, electron microscopic immunogold methods revealed an 8-fold greater MCT1 labeling in the brain endothelial cells at 4 weeks. Abluminal endothelial membranes were twice as heavily labeled as luminal membranes. In controls. luminal and abluminal labeling was not significantly different. The endothelial cytoplasmic compartment was sparsely labeled (
