COOH) represents the protonated form of the organic acid, whereas lactate (CH₃CH (OH)COO⁻) represents its conjugated base.

Elevated baseline LDH levels predict worse clinical outcomes in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and modestly ...

Patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) had decreased quality of life (QOL) and worse fatigue that could be linked to lactate dehydrogenase levels. Researchers found that levels of ...

Background Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) isoenzymes are required for adenosine triphosphate production, with each of five different isoenzymes having varying proficiencies in anaerobic versus aerobic ...

Lactate is a byproduct of exercise and metabolism, fueling our brain when oxygen is limited. More recently, scientists have become aware of the many roles it plays in developing our nervous system.

A volunteer is monitored after being given a large dose of glucose to determine how well people switch from fat to carbohydrate metabolism as they age. In the tests at UC Berkeley, subjects had their ...

A new review reveals how lactate and its derivative lactylation process drive breast cancer progression, opening new therapeutic possibilities. The study demonstrates that lactate—a metabolic ...
