The glucose enhancement of memory has recently sparked a series of discussions in the scientific community. This growing interest would account for the discoveries that glucose ameliorates memory impairment in neurodegenerative diseases. Most importantly is the discovery that glucose memory enhancement effect was comparative with pharmacological agents for memory improvement. However, there are continued speculations on the mechanisms of this phenomenon. Here, we review recent data that suggest the mechanisms of glucose enhancement of memory functions.
