We performed
1
H
MRS at 14.1T in the liver of GLUT2
-/-
and
wild-type (WT) mice. Improved spectral resolution
allowed identifying peaks from the lipid resonances,
choline containing compounds, taurine and glycogen in WT
mice. Performing the same measurements in GLUT2
-/-
mice
revealed a strong contribution from carbohydrates,
notably glucose, to the
1
H
MR liver spectrum. Also a reduced lipid content was
detected by
1
H
MRS in those mice. The characterization of the hepatic
profile by
1
H
MRS in GLUT2
-/-
mice
is of great value to address changes in the main energy
fuels in the liver longitudinally.
