Lactate metabolism in skeletal muscle encompasses the production of lactate via glycolysis and its subsequent oxidation within mitochondria. Under conditions of increased energy demand or limited ...

New research finds that birds can use lactate, often thought of as a metabolic waste product, as a cellular fuel that aids in ...

Abstract: Neural tissue requires a great metabolic demand despite negligible intrinsic energy stores. As a result, the central nervous system (CNS) depends upon a continuous influx of metabolic ...
