Abstract
Once considered a metabolic waste product, today it is considered an important signaling molecule continuously forming under aerobic conditions. Lactate, a molecule primarily known as a byproduct of glycolysis, has gained importance in recent years due to its multifaceted role in various biological processes. Misconceptions surrounding lactate have persisted for centuries, especially the belief that elevated lactate levels were solely a result of low oxygen levels shaped early understanding. However, current research challenges this view and expands our comprehension of lactate's various roles. Unfortunately, despite all of the mentioned above lactate is rooted in modern society as a deterrent word and many people do not know its value in the human body, let alone clinical implementations or physical performance. The main goal of this review is to refresh current knowledge regarding lactate research and spread the overall information among a professional society. Key words: Lactate, Lactate metabolism, Lactic acid, Disease metabolism, Lactate shuttle.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
