Abstract
BACKGROUND Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive subtype of breast cancer that exhibits elevated glycolytic capacity. Lactate, as a byproduct of glycolysis, is considered a major oncometabolite that plays an important role in oncogenesis and remodeling of the tumor microenvironment. However, the potential roles of lactate in TNBC are not yet fully understood. In this study, our goal was to identify prognosis-related lactate genes (PLGs) and construct a lactate-related prognostic model (LRPM) for TNBC. METHODS First, we applied lactate-related genes to classify TNBC samples using a hierarchical clustering algorithm. Then, we performed the log-rank analysis and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator analysis to screen PLGs and construct the LRPM. The biological functions of the identified PLGs in TNBC were investigated using CCK8 assay and clone formation assay. Finally, we constructed a nomogram based on the lactate-risk score and tumor clinical stage. We used the operating characteristic curve and decision curve analysis to evaluate the predictive capability of the nomogram. RESULTS Our results showed that the TNBC samples could be classified into two subgroups with different survival probabilities. Three genes (NDUFAF3, CARS2 and FH), which can suppress TNBC cell proliferation, were identified as PLGs. Moreover, the LRPM and nomogram exhibited excellent predictive performance for TNBC patient prognosis. CONCLUSION We have developed a novel LRPM that enables risk stratification and identification of poor molecular subtypes in TNBC patients, showing great potential in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no universal trigger or tool to aid sepsis diagnosis. OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to identify triggers and tools to assist the early detection of sepsis that can be readily implemented across various health care settings. METHODS A systematic integrative review was conducted using MEDLINE, CINAHL, EMBASE, Scopus, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. Relevant grey literature and subject-matter expert consultation also informed the review. Study types included systematic reviews, randomised controlled trials, and cohort studies. All patient populations across prehospital, emergency department, and acute hospital inpatient settings, excluding the intensive care unit, were included. Sepsis triggers and tools were evaluated for efficacy in detecting sepsis and association with process measures and patient outcomes. Methodological quality was appraised using Joanna Briggs Institute tools. RESULTS Of the 124 included studies, most were retrospective cohort (49.2%) in adults (83.9%) within the emergency department (44.4%). The most commonly evaluated sepsis tools were qSOFA (12 studies) and SIRS (11 studies) with a median sensitivity of 28.0% versus 51.0% and a specificity of 98.0% versus 82.0%, respectively, for sepsis diagnosis. Lactate plus qSOFA (two studies) had a sensitivity between 57.0 and 65.5%, whereas the National Early Warning Score (four studies) demonstrated median sensitivity and specificity >80%, but the latter was considered difficult to implement. Amongst triggers, lactate (18 studies) at the threshold of ≥2.0 mmol/L showed higher sensitivity for predicting sepsis-related clinical deterioration than <2.0 mmol/L. Automated sepsis alerts and algorithms (35 studies) showed median sensitivity between 58.0 and 80.0% and specificity between 60.0 and 93.1%. There were limited data for other sepsis tools and maternal, paediatric, and neonatal populations. Overall methodological quality was high. CONCLUSION No single sepsis tool or trigger is applicable across various settings and populations, but considering efficacy and ease of implementation, there is evidence to use lactate plus qSOFA for adult patients. More research is needed in maternal, paediatric, and neonatal populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The severity of tissue hypoxia is routinely assessed by serum lactate. We aimed to determine whether early lactate levels predict outcomes in refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) treated by conventional and extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR). METHODS This study is a post-hoc analysis of a randomized Prague OHCA study (NCT01511666) assessing serum lactate levels in refractory OHCA treated by ECPR (the ECPR group) or conventional resuscitation with prehospital achieved return of spontaneous circulation (the ROSC group). Lactate concentrations measured on admission and every 4 hours (h) during the first 24 h were used to determine their relationship with the neurological outcome (the best Cerebral Performance Category score within 180 days post-cardiac arrest). RESULTS In the ECPR group (92 patients, median age 58.5 years, 83% male) 26% attained a favorable neurological outcome. In the ROSC group (82 patients, median age 55 years, 83% male) 59% achieved a favorable neurological outcome. In ECPR patients lactate concentrations could discriminate favorable outcome patients, but not consistently in the ROSC group. On admission, serum lactate >14.0 mmol/L for ECPR (specificity 87.5%, sensitivity 54.4%) and >10.8 mmol/L for the ROSC group (specificity 83%, sensitivity 41.2%) predicted an unfavorable outcome. CONCLUSION In refractory OHCA serum lactate concentrations measured anytime during the first 24 h after admission to the hospital were found to correlate with the outcome in patients treated by ECPR but not in patients with prehospital ROSC. A single lactate measurement is not enough for a reliable outcome prediction and cannot be used alone to guide treatment.

Abstract
Increasing evidence shows that metabolic factors are involved in the pathological process of osteoarthritis (OA). Lactate has been shown to contribute to the onset and progression of diseases. While whether lactate is involved in the pathogenesis of OA through impaired chondrocyte function and its mechanism remains unclear. This study confirmed that serum lactate levels were elevated in OA patients compared to healthy controls and were positively correlated with synovial fluid lactate levels, which were also correlated with fasting blood glucose, high-density lipoprotein, triglyceride. Lactate treatment could up-regulate expressions of the lactate receptor hydroxy-carboxylic acid receptor 1 (HCAR1) and lactate transporters in human chondrocytes. We demonstrated the dual role of lactate, which as a metabolite increased NADPH levels by shunting glucose metabolism to the pentose phosphate pathway, and as a signaling molecule up-regulated NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX4) via activating PI3K/Akt signaling pathway through receptor HCAR1. Particularly, lactate could promote reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and chondrocyte damage, which was attenuated by pre-treatment with the NOX4 inhibitor GLX351322. We also confirmed that lactate could increase expression of catabolic enzymes (MMP-3/13, ADAMTS-4), reduce the synthesis of type II collagen, promote expression of inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, CCL-3/4), and induce cellular hypertrophy and aging in chondrocytes. Subsequently, we showed that chondrocyte damage mediated by lactate could be reversed by pre-treatment with N-Acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC, ROS scavenger). Finally, we further verified in vivo that intra-articular injection of lactate in Sprague Dawley (SD) rat models could damage cartilage and exacerbate the progression of OA models that could be countered by the NOX4 inhibitor GLX351322. Our study highlights the involvement of lactate as a metabolic factor in the OA process, providing a theoretical basis for potential metabolic therapies of OA in the future.

Abstract
This study presents a novel approach to the detection of epinephrine, lactate, and cortisol biomarkers in human sweat using molecularly-imprinted polymers (MIP) embedded screen printed carbon electrode (SPCE) sensors. The epinephrine and lactate MIP SPCE sensors were fabricated by epinephrine or lactate-imprinted polyaniline co-polymerized with 3-aminophenylboronic acid and gold nanoparticles (PANI-co-PBA/AuNP) selective membrane on a commercial SPCE. The cortisol sensor was comprised of a cortisol-imprinted poly(glycidyl methacryate-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) (poly (GMA-co-EGDMA)@AuNP selective membrane deposited on a SPCE. Both cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were used as modes of analysis for the MIP SPCE sensors. All sensors exhibited a rapid (∼1 min) and selective response to the epinephrine, lactate, and cortisol target analytes, with excellent precision between scans for both CV and DPV analysis modes. For CV, the LOD for epinephrine, lactate, and cortisol was 8.2 nM, 13 mM, and 0.042 μM, respectively. The LOD for DPV were 0.60 nM, 2.2 mM, and 0.025 μM for epinephrine, lactate, and cortisol, respectively. The MIP SPCE sensor platforms were further validated through the successful quantification of epinephrine, lactate, and cortisol in human sweat.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate whether the effect of tachycardia varies according to the degree of tissue perfusion in septic shock. METHODS Patients with septic shock admitted to the intensive care units were categorized into the tachycardia (heart rate > 100 beats/min) and non-tachycardia (≤ 100 beats/min) groups. The association of tachycardia with hospital mortality was evaluated in each subgroup with low and high lactate levels, which were identified through a subpopulation treatment effect pattern plot analysis. RESULTS In overall patients, hospital mortality did not differ between the two groups (44.6% vs. 41.8%, P = 0.441), however, tachycardia was associated with reduced hospital mortality rates in patients with a lactate level ≥ 5.3 mmol/L (48.7% vs. 60.3%, P = 0.030; adjusted odds ratio [OR], 0.59, 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.35-0.99, P = 0.045), not in patients with a lactate level < 5.3 mmol/L (36.5% vs. 29.7%, P = 0.156; adjusted OR, 1.39, 95% CI, 0.82-2.35, P = 0.227). CONCLUSION In septic shock patients, the effect of tachycardia on hospital mortality differed by serum lactate level. Tachycardia was associated with better survival in patients with significantly elevated lactate levels.

Abstract
In this study, a mixed-cultural metabolic network for anaerobic digestion that included the concept of a "universal bacterium" was constructed, and metabolic flux analysis (MFA) applying this network was conducted to evaluate the flow of electrons and materials during H2 fermentation under various conditions. The MFA results from two H2 fermenters feeding glucose with (GP) or without (GA) the addition of peptone suggest that hydraulic retention time (HRT) presents a significant impact on hydrogen production, and the reversed trends could be observed at HRTs below and above 4 h. From the MFA results of lactate/acetate-fed H2 fermenter, the highest flux of H2 production is associated with more significant acetate consumption and the following pathways toward the anaplerotic reactions cycle that produces NADH. The occurrence of acetogenesis in the H2 fermenters using various types of bioethanol-fermented residues (BEFRs) was also identified according to the MFA results. By analyzing the MFA results of all 49 sets of data from H2 fermenters via Pearson's correlation, it was revealed that the flux of H2 production positively correlates to the reduction of ferredoxin with pyruvate oxidation, acetate formation, and acetate emission when lactate was produced in the system. On the contrary, negative relationships were found between the flux of H2 production and these three fluxes. The extended application of MFA provides additional information, including the fluxes between intracellular metabolites, and the information has the potential to be used in decision-making systems during the future operation of anaerobic processes by connecting operational parameters.

Abstract
Cell cycle regulation in response to biochemical cues is a fundamental event associated with many diseases. The regulation of such responses in complex metabolic environments is poorly understood. This study reveals unknown aspects of the metabolic regulation of cell division in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. We show that changing the carbon source from glucose to lactic acid alters the functions of the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) Cdc2 and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) Sty1, leading to unanticipated outcomes in the behavior and fate of such cells. Functional communication of Cdc2 with Sty1 is known to be an integral part of the cellular response to aberrant Cdc2 activity in S. pombe. Our results show that cross-talk between Cdc2 and Sty1, and the consequent Sty1-dependent regulation of Cdc2 activity, appears to be compromised and the relationship between Cdc2 activity and mitotic timing is also reversed in the presence of lactate. We also show that the biochemical status of cells under these conditions is an important determinant of the altered molecular functions mentioned above as well as the altered behavior of these cells.

Abstract
Evaluation of acrosome function in stallion sperm is mostly based on the use of inducers of acrosomal exocytosis (AE), such as the calcium ionophore A23187 or progesterone. Recently, it has been reported that incubation of stallion sperm under presumed capacitating conditions (i.e., medium formulated with calcium, bicarbonate, and bovine serum albumin) using a lactate-only containing medium (Lac-MW) results in a high rate of spontaneous AE in viable sperm (AE/Viable). In the current study, we developed an alternative assay of acrosome function for stallion sperm following the incubation of sperm in a medium formulated only with lactate as an energy substrate (Lac-MW). In Experiment 1, freshly ejaculated stallion sperm was incubated with 10 μM A23187, Lac-MW, or Control, for up to 6 h under capacitating conditions. The percentages of motile sperm, viable sperm, total AE (Total AE), and AE in viable sperm (AE/Viable) were compared among treatment groups. Incubation in Lac-MW, but not with Control or A23187, resulted in a time-dependent increase in the percentage of AE/Viable, as determined by flow cytometry, particularly at 4 and 6 h of incubation (P < 0.05). In Experiment 2, freshly ejaculated sperm was incubated in Lac-MW for up to 6 h, and the occurrence of protein tyrosine phosphorylation and AE/Viable were determined. At 4h and 6h of incubation in Lac-MW, ∼40% of the sperm displayed a protein tyrosine phosphorylation immunofluorescence pattern that coincides with that recently associated with stallion sperm capacitation (i.e., immunofluorescence signal at the acrosome and midpiece). In Experiment 3, the rate of AE/Viable sperm was compared among freshly ejaculated, cool-stored, and frozen/thawed stallion sperm. Except at 2h incubation in Lac-MW, differences in mean AE/Viable among fresh, cool-stored, and frozen/thawed sperm were not observed (P > 0.05). In Experiment 4, the relationship between Total AE (A23187), or AE/Viable (Lac-MW), and in vivo fertility of 5 stallions was determined. A linear relationship was observed between mean AE/Viable and the per-cycle (r = 0.93; P < 0.05) and seasonal (r = 0.66; P < 0.05) pregnancy rates of five stallions used for artificial insemination with cool-stored semen. In Experiment 5, frozen/thawed sperm from subfertile Thoroughbred (TB) stallions, known to carry the susceptibility genotype for Impaired Acrosomal Exocytosis (IAE; FKBP6 A/A-A/A) was evaluated following incubation in Lac-MW. Sperm from subfertile TB stallions with IAE had lower mean AE/Viable, at both 4h and 6h incubation in Lac-MW, when compared to that of fertile control stallions (P < 0.05). Overall, the Lac-MW model validated in the current study may be a useful complementary assay to evaluate the ability of stallion sperm to physiologically undergo AE and to study stallion fertility potential. This acrosome function assay can be used to evaluate fresh, cool-stored, or frozen/thawed stallion sperm, and describes a strong linear relationship with in vivo-fertility of stallions used in artificial insemination programs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Warburg effect, characterized by elevated lactate levels without tissue hypoxia or shock, has been described in patients with aggressive lymphoproliferative malignancies. However, the clinical characteristics and long-term outcomes in this population remain poorly understood. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 135 patients with aggressive lymphoproliferative malignancies admitted to the ICU between January 2017 and December 2022. Patients were classified into three groups: Clinical Warburg Effect (CWE), No Warburg with High Lactate level (NW-HL), and No Warburg with Normal Lactate level (NW-NL). Clinical characteristics and outcomes were compared between the groups and factors associated with 1-year mortality and CWE were identified using multivariable analyses. RESULTS Of the 135 patients, 46 (34%) had a CWE. This group had a higher proportion of Burkitt and T cell lymphomas, greater tumor burden, and more frequent bone and cerebral involvement than the other groups. At 1 year, 72 patients (53%) died, with significantly higher mortality in the CWE and NW-HL groups (70% each) than in the NW-NL group (38%). Factors independently associated with 1-year mortality were age [HR = 1.02 CI 95% (1.00-1.04)], total SOFA score at admission [HR = 1.19 CI 95% (1.12-1.25)], and CWE [HR = 3.87 CI 95% (2.13-7.02)]. The main factors associated with the CWE were tumor lysis syndrome [OR = 2.84 CI 95% (1.14-7.42)], bone involvement of the underlying malignancy [OR = 3.58 CI 95% (1.02-12.91)], the total SOFA score at admission [OR = 0.81 CI 95% (0.69-0.91)] and hypoglycemia at admission [OR = 14.90 CI 95% (5.42-47.18)]. CONCLUSION CWE is associated with a higher tumor burden and increased 1-year mortality compared to patients without this condition. Our findings underscore the importance of recognizing patients with CWE as a high-risk cohort, as their outcomes closely resemble those of individuals with lymphoma and shock, despite not requiring advanced organ support. Clinicians should recognize the urgency of managing these patients and consider early intervention to improve their prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the physiological and metabolic adaptations to an eight-week running intervention with whole-body electromyostimulation (wbEMS) compared to running without wbEMS. METHODS In a randomized controlled trial (RCT), 59 healthy participants (32 female/ 27 male, 41 ± 7 years, rel.V̇O2max 40.2 ± 7.4 ml/min/kg) ran twice weekly à 20 min for eight weeks either with a wbEMS suit (EG) or without wbEMS (control group, CG). Before and after the intervention, (i) rel.V̇O2max, heart rate and time to exhaustion were recorded with an incremental step test with an incremental rate of 1.20 km/h every 3 min. They were interpreted at aerobic and (indirect) anaerobic lactate thresholds as well as at maximum performance. (ii) Resting metabolic rate (RQ) as well as (iii) body composition (%fat) were assessed. RESULTS Following the intervention, V̇O2max was significantly enhanced for both groups (EG ∆13 ± 3%, CG ∆9 ± 3%). Velocity was elevated at lactate thresholds and maximum running speed (EG ∆3 ± 1%, CG ∆2 ± 1%); HRmax was slightly reduced by -1 beat/min. No significant changes were observed for time until exhaustion and lactate. RQ was significantly enhanced following both trainings by + 7%. %fat was reduced for both groups (EG ∆-11 ± 3%, CG ∆-16 ± 5%), without any changes in body mass. Results did not differ significantly between groups. CONCLUSIONS Both interventions had a positive impact on aerobic power. The rightward shift of the time-velocity graph points towards improved endurance performance. The effects of wbEMS are comparable to those after high-intensity training and might offer a time-efficient alternative to affect physiological and metabolic effects.

Abstract
This study investigated the acute effects of dibutyl phthalate (DBP) exposure on energy metabolism and gill histology in zebrafish (Danio rerio). The in vitro incubation of gill tissue with 10 μM DBP for 60 min altered tissue energy supply, as shown by decreased lactate content and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity. Higher concentrations of DBP (100 μM and 1 mM) increased lactate content and LDH activity; however, they blocked glucose uptake, depleted the glycogen content in cellular stores, and induced injury to the gills, as measured by LDH release to the extracellular medium. In addition, in vivo exposure of fish to 1 pM DBP for 12 h induced liver damage by increasing alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) activities. Gill histology indicated hyperemia, lamellar fusion, lamellar telangiectasis, and necrosis. Data indicate that acute exposure of zebrafish gills to the higher DBP concentrations studied induces anaerobic cellular activity and high lactate production, causing gill damage, diminishing cell viability, and incurring liver dysfunction.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Monitoring muscle metabolic activity via blood lactate is a useful tool for understanding the physiological response to a given exercise intensity. Recent indications suggest that skeletal muscle oxygen saturation (SmO2), an index of the balance between local O2 supply and demand, may describe and predict endurance performance outcomes. PURPOSE We tested the hypothesis that SmO2 rate is tightly related to blood lactate concentration across exercise intensities, and that deflections in SmO2 rate would coincide with established blood lactate thresholds (i.e., lactate thresholds 1 and 2). METHODS Ten elite male soccer players completed an incremental running protocol to exhaustion using 3-min work to 30 s rest intervals. Blood lactate samples were collected during rest and SmO2 was collected continuously via near-infrared spectroscopy from the right and left vastus lateralis, left biceps femoris and the left gastrocnemius. RESULTS Muscle O2 saturation rate (%/min) was quantified after the initial 60 s of each 3-min segment. The SmO2 rate was significantly correlated with blood lactate concentrations for all muscle sites; RVL, r = - 0.974; LVL, r = - 0.969; LG, r = - 0.942; LHAM, r = - 0.907. Breakpoints in SmO2 rate were not significantly different from LT1 or LT2 at any muscle sites (P > 0.05). Bland-Altman analysis showed speed threshold estimates via SmO2 rate and lactate are similar at LT2, but slightly greater for SmO2 rate at LT1. CONCLUSIONS Muscle O2 saturation rate appears to provide actionable information about maximal metabolic steady state and is consistent with bioenergetic reliance on oxygen and its involvement in the attainment of metabolic steady state.

Abstract
In some relatively common inborn errors of metabolism there can be the accumulation of toxic compounds including ammonia and organic acids such as lactate and ketoacids, as well as energy deficits at the cellular level. The clinical presentation is often referred to as a metabolic emergency or crisis. Fasting and illness can result in encephalopathy within hours, and without appropriate recognition and intervention, the outcome may be permanent disability or death. This review outlines easy and readily available means of recognizing and diagnosing a metabolic emergency as well as general guidelines for management. Disease-specific interventions focus on parenteral nutrition to reverse catabolism, toxin removal strategies, and vitamin/nutrition supplementation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Determining the predictive factors for cardiac arrest may be helpful in the management of in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and in estimating the outcome. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to investigate the effect of demographic data, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) initiating setting, compression method, and laboratory parameters on survival from cardiac arrest. METHODS A total of 414 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included in the study. Patients were grouped into those who underwent out-of-hospital CPR and those who underwent CPR in the hospital and patients who received automatic compression and those who did not receive. In addition to pH, lactate and bicarbonate in arterial blood gas, CK-MB, troponin, urea, creatinine, calcium, potassium, and glucose were measured. RESULTS The mean age of patients was 70.36±15.68 years, and 170 (41.1%) were female. Although the success rate of CPR in the OHCA group (22.2%) was lower than in the patients in the IHCA group (30.9%), the difference was not statistically significant. There was no difference between the two groups in the comparison of mechanical compression devices and manual compression. In the logistic regression analysis, high pH and low lactate values were found to be independent predictors of survival. CONCLUSION The results of this study revealed no significant difference between IHCA and OHCA CPR applications and between manual and mechanical compressions in terms of survival in patients with cardiac arrest. In addition, higher pH levels and lower lactate levels measured during CPR were independent predictors of survival.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Metformin toxicity is a rare but serious condition that carries with it a high rate of morbidity and mortality. OBJECTIVE This review highlights the pearls and pitfalls of metformin toxicity, including diagnosis, initial resuscitation, and management in the emergency department (ED) based on current evidence. DISCUSSION Metformin is a common medication used for treatment of diabetes mellitus. Metformin toxicity is a spectrum of conditions that may be differentiated into three subgroups: metformin-associated lactic acidosis (MALA), metformin-induced lactic acidosis (MILA), and metformin-unrelated lactic acidosis (MULA). MILA is a condition found predominantly in patients chronically taking metformin or those with large acute overdoses. Conversely, MULA occurs in patients on metformin but with a critical illness stemming from a separate cause. MALA is rare but the most severe form, with mortality rates that reach 50%. Differentiating these entities is difficult in the ED setting without obtaining metformin levels. Patients with metformin toxicity present with nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms and vital sign abnormalities. Laboratory analysis will reveal a high lactate with anion gap metabolic acidosis. Patients presenting with elevated lactate levels in the setting of metformin use should be considered at risk for the most severe form, MALA. Patients with MALA require aggressive treatment with intravenous fluids, treatment of any concomitant condition, and early consideration of hemodialysis, along with specialist consultation such as nephrology and toxicology. CONCLUSIONS An understanding of metformin toxicity can assist emergency clinicians in diagnosing and managing this potentially deadly disease.

Abstract
The study aim was to assess whether match-derived external-to-internal load ratios are a valid and reliable tool to measure physical fitness. Sixteen elite youth soccer players (17 ± 1 years) performed two maximal fitness tests. Subsequently, players participated in three intra-squad soccer matches in three consecutive weeks. Three GPS-based parameters of external load (total distance, PlayerLoad, high-intensity distance) were divided by three heart rate-based parameters of internal load (iTRIMP, Banister TRIMP, average percentage heart rate reserve) for the ratio calculations. Validity was established by comparing the ratios with results of the fitness tests, while between-athlete and within-athlete reliability were quantified. Most integrated load ratios were moderately-to-largely correlated with the various fitness parameters. Overall, a ratio consisting of PlayerLoad and average percentage heart rate reserve demonstrated the most consistent correlations with maximum treadmill speed (r = 0.69, P = 0.003) and the speeds associated with 4 mmol/L of blood lactate (r = 0.56, P = 0.024) and 80% of heart rate reserve (r = 0.54, P = 0.031). Most of the ratios displayed acceptable levels of reproducibility (intraclass correlation coefficient > 0.8 and coefficient of variation < 10%), with the minimal detectable change of all ratios ranging between 7.1 and 37.8%. Given their associations with physical fitness and non-invasive nature, certain external-to-internal load ratios may be used to monitor physical fitness in soccer players. However, the ratios may not be sensitive enough to detect small yet practically relevant alterations in player fitness.

Abstract
Antioxidant actions of melatonin and its impact on testicular function and fertility have already been described. Considering that Sertoli cells contribute to provide structural support and nutrition to germ cells, we evaluated the effect of melatonin on oxidative state and lactate metabolism in the immature murine TM4 cell line and in immature hamster Sertoli cells. A prooxidant stimulus applied to rodent Sertoli cells expressing MT1/MT2 receptors, increased lipid peroxidation whereas decreased antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase 1, catalase, peroxiredoxin 1) expression and catalase activity. These changes were prevented by melatonin. Furthermore, melatonin stimulated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) expression/activity via melatonin receptors, and increased intracellular lactate production in rodent Sertoli cells. Interestingly, oral melatonin supplementation in infertile men positively regulated LDHA testicular mRNA expression. Overall, our work provides insights into the potential benefits of melatonin on Sertoli cells contributing to testicular development and the future establishment of a sustainable spermatogenesis.

Abstract
Stroke is the main cause of acquired disability in adults. Exercise reduces the risk for stroke and protects against functional loss after stroke. An exercise-induced reduction in key risk factors probably contributes to the protective effect, but direct effects on the brain may also contribute to stroke protection. We previously reported that exercise increases angiogenesis and neurogenesis through activation of the lactate receptor HCA1. Here we exposed young adult wild-type mice and HCA1 knockout mice to interval exercise at high or medium intensity, or to intraperitoneal injections of L-lactate or saline for seven weeks before we induced experimental stroke by permanent occlusion of the distal medial cerebral artery (dMCA). The resulting cortical atrophy measured three weeks after stroke was unaffected by exercise or L-lactate pre-treatments, and independent of HCA1 activation. Our results suggest that the beneficial effect of exercise prior to stroke where no reperfusion occurs is limited in individuals who do not carry risk factors.

Abstract
The Warburg Effect is characterized by accelerated glycolytic metabolism and lactate production and under fully aerobic conditions is a hallmark of cancer cells. Recently, we have demonstrated the role of endogenous, glucose-derived lactate as an oncometabolite which regulates gene expression in the estrogen receptor positive (ER+) MCF7 cell line cultivated in glucose media. Presently, with the addition of a triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell line, MDA-MB-231, we further confirm the effect of lactate on gene expression patterns and extend results to include lactate effects on protein expression. As well, we report effects of lactate on the expression of E-cadherin and vimentin, proteins associated with epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Endogenous lactate regulates the expression of multiple genes involved in carcinogenesis. In MCF7 cells, lactate increased the expression of EGFR, VEGF, HIF-1a, KRAS, MIF, mTOR, PIK3CA, TP53, and CDK4 as well as decreased the expression of ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2, E2F1, MET, MYC, and RAF mainly after 48h of exposure. On the other hand, in the MDA-MB-231 cell line, lactate increased the expressions of PIK3CA, VEGF, EGFR, mTOR, HIF-1α, ATM, E2F1, TP53 and decreased the expressions of BRCA1, BRCA2, CDK4, CDK6, MET, MIF, MYC, and RAF after 48h of exposure. In response to endogenous lactate, changes in protein expression of representative genes corroborated changes in mRNA expressions. Finally, lactate exposure decreased E-cadherin protein expression in MCF7 cells and increased vimentin expression in MDA-MB-231 cells. Furthermore, by genetically silencing LDHA in MCF7 cells, we show suppression of protein expression of EGFR and HIF-1α, while full protein expression occurred under glucose and glucose + exogenous lactate exposure. Hence, endogenous, glucose-derived lactate, and not glucose, elicited changes in gene and protein expression levels. In this study, we demonstrate that endogenous lactate produced under aerobic conditions (Warburg Effect) elicits important changes in gene and protein expression in both ER+ and TNBC cell lines. The widespread regulation of multiple genes by lactate and involves those involved in carcinogenesis including DNA repair, cell growth, proliferation, angiogenesis, and metastasis. Furthermore, lactate affected the expression of two relevant EMT biomarkers, E-cadherin and vimentin, which could contribute to the complex process of EMT and a shift towards a more mesenchymal phenotype in the two cancer cell lines studied.

Abstract
Using 1, 4-H2NDC as ligand and Eu as the center metal, the lanthanide MOF Eu-NDC was synthesized by hydrothermal method. The material showed a fast ratiometric response to L-lactate, and the fluorescence of the material varied from red to blue with the growth of lactate concentration, which can be used as a fluorescent sensor for L-lactate in sweat. The sensor exhibited good fluorescence stability to interfering components in human sweat and good detection limits for lactate in artificial sweat. Based on this, a visualized molecular logic gate that can monitor sweat lactate levels was constructed, and the material's characteristic of showing different colors with lactate concentration changes was used to indicate possible hypoxia during exercise, opening a new path for combining sweat lactate monitoring with smart molecular devices.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perilipin 5 (Plin5) is well known to maintain the stability of intracellular lipid droplets (LDs) and regulate fatty acid metabolism in oxidative tissues. It is highly expressed in the heart, but its roles have yet to be fully elucidated. METHODS Plin5-deficient mice and Plin5/leptin-double-knockout mice were produced, and their histological structures and myocardial functions were observed. Critical proteins related to fatty acid and glucose metabolism were measured in heart tissues, neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes and Plin5-overexpressing H9C2 cells. 2-NBDG was employed to detect glucose uptake. The mitochondria and lipid contents were observed by MitoTracker and BODIPY 493/503 staining in neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes. RESULTS Plin5 deficiency impaired glucose utilization and caused insulin resistance in mouse cardiomyocytes, particularly in the presence of fatty acids (FAs). Additionally, Plin5 deficiency increased the NADH content and elevated the expression of lactate dehydrogenase (LDHA) in cardiomyocytes, which resulted in increased lactate production. Moreover, when fatty acid oxidation was blocked by etomoxir or LDHA was inhibited by GSK2837808A in Plin5-deficient cardiomyocytes, glucose utilization was improved. Leptin-deficient mice exhibited myocardial hypertrophy, insulin resistance and altered substrate utilization, and Plin5 deficiency exacerbated myocardial hypertrophy in leptin-deficient mice. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrated that Plin5 plays a critical role in coordinating fatty acid and glucose oxidation in cardiomyocytes, providing a potential target for the treatment of metabolic disorders in the heart.

Abstract
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is one of the most important causative agents in the pig industry worldwide, causing reproductive failure in sows and respiratory problems in growing pigs. Glucose metabolism is a major pathway for energy production and interacts with many cellular processes, such as innate immunity response. It is unclear whether PRRSV infection can use the glucose metabolic pathway to generate immune escape in favor of viral replication. Here, we found that high glucose promotes PRRSV replication and glycolysis, and inhibits poly(I:C)-induced RLR signaling. Conversely, inhibition of the glycolysis pathway significantly promoted poly(I:C)-induced RLR signaling and inhibited PRRSV replication, suggesting that glycolysis promotes PRRSV replication by inhibiting interferon signaling. Furthermore, PRRSV promotes glycolysis to produce lactate, which acts as a key metabolite to promote viral replication by inhibiting RLR signaling by targeting MAVS. And the glycolytic inhibitors targeting HK2 and LDHA in glycolysis could inhibit PRRSV replication. Taken together, these findings suggested that PRRSV infection promotes glycolysis to produce lactate, which targets MAVS to inhibit RLR signaling and thus promote viral replication. Our findings provide an insight into the pathogenesis of PRRSV and offer a theoretical basis for further development of antiviral therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Identifying potentially life-threatening diseases is a key challenge for emergency medical services. This study aims at examining the role of different prehospital biomarkers from point-of-care testing to derive and validate a score to detect 2-day in-hospital mortality. We conducted a prospective, observational, prehospital, ongoing, and derivation-validation study in three Spanish provinces, in adults evacuated by ambulance and admitted to the emergency department. A total of 23 ambulance-based biomarkers were collected from each patient. A biomarker score based on logistic regression was fitted to predict 2-day mortality from an optimum subset of variables from prehospital blood analysis, obtained through an automated feature selection stage. 2806 cases were analyzed, with a median age of 68 (interquartile range 51-81), 42.3% of women, and a 2-day mortality rate of 5.5% (154 non-survivors). The blood biomarker score was constituted by the partial pressure of carbon dioxide, lactate, and creatinine. The score fitted with logistic regression using these biomarkers reached a high performance to predict 2-day mortality, with an AUC of 0.933 (95% CI 0.841-0.973). The following risk levels for 2-day mortality were identified from the score: low risk (score < 1), where only 8.2% of non-survivors were assigned to; medium risk (1 ≤ score < 4); and high risk (score ≥ 4), where the 2-day mortality rate was 57.6%. The novel blood biomarker score provides an excellent association with 2-day in-hospital mortality, as well as real-time feedback on the metabolic-respiratory patient status. Thus, this score can help in the decision-making process at critical moments in life-threatening situations.

Abstract
Objective The aim of this study is to analyze the diagnostic value of Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA), modified qSOFA, National Early Warning Score (NEWS) and NEWS + Lactate (NEWS + L) scores in the detection of severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Methods This research is a retrospective cohort study. Patients admitted to the Emergency Department (ED) with the diagnosis of CAP were divided into severe and mild pneumonia regarding their Pneumonia Severity Index (PSI) scores. The accuracies of lactate, procalcitonin (PCT) values, NEWS and qSOFA scores, as well as score combinations (NEWS + L and qSOFA + PCT) in predicting patients with severe CAP were analyzed. Results Median qSOFA value in the severe CAP group (0 [IQR 0-1]) was found to be higher than median qSOFA value (0 [IQR 0-0]) in the mild CAP group (p < 0.001). The rate of qSOFA positivity (qSOFA ≥ 2) was significantly higher in the severe CAP group (17.1%, n = 21) compared to the mild CAP group (1.3%, n = 1) (p < 0.001). Median qSOFA + PCT for the severe CAP group (2 [IQR 1-2]) was higher than the mild CAP group (1 [IQR 0-1]) (p < 0.001). Mean NEWS score for severe CAP (4.95 ± 3.09) was found to be 1.69 (95% CI 0.92-2.46) higher than mean NEWS score of the mild CAP group (3.26 ± 2.39) (p < 0.001). The severe CAP NEWS + L score (6.97 ± 3.71) was higher than the mild CAP NEWS + L score (4.94 ± 2.48) (p < 0.001). Blood lactate level was not significant in the evaluation of severe CAP (p = 0.221). PCT (AUROC = 0.685 [95% CI 0.610-0.760]; p = 0.038), NEWS score (AUROC = 0.658 95% CI [0.582-0.733]; p < 0.001), qSOFA (AUROC = 0.686) were calculated to have adequate accuracy for the detection of severe CAP. [95% CI 0.613-0.759]; p = 0.037), NEWS + L score (AUROC = 0.665 [95% CI 0.589-0.740]; p = 0.038). The qSOFA + PCT score (AUROC = 0.758 [95% 0.691-0.825]; p = 0.034) was also found to be a highly accurate predictor of severe CAP. Conclusion In this study, we found a combination of qSOFA and PCT to be the most reliable method of detecting severe CAP.

Abstract
Repeated neonatal exposures to sevoflurane induce long-term cognitive impairment that has been reported to have sex-dependent differences. Exercise promotes learning and memory by releasing lactate from the muscle. The study tested the hypothesis that lactate may improve long-term cognitive impairment induced by repeated neonatal exposures to sevoflurane through SIRT1-mediated regulation of adult hippocampal neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity. C57BL/6 mice of both genders were exposed to 3% sevoflurane for 2 h daily from postnatal day 6 (P6) to P8. In the intervention experiments, mice received lactate at 1 g/kg intraperitoneally once daily from P21 to P41. Behavioral tests including open field (OF), object location (OL), novel object recognition (NOR), and fear conditioning (FC) tests were performed to assess cognitive function. The number of 5-Bromo-2'- deoxyuridine positive (BrdU+) cells and BrdU+/DCX+ (doublecortin) co-labeled cells, expressions of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), activity-regulated cytoskeletal-associated protein (Arc), early growth response 1 (Egr-1), SIRT1, PGC-1α and FNDC5, and long-term potentiation (LTP) were evaluated in the hippocampus. Repeated exposures to sevoflurane induced deficits in OL, NOR and contextual FC tests in male but not female mice. Similarly, adult hippocampal neurogenesis, synaptic plasticity-related proteins and hippocampal LTP were impaired after repeated exposures to sevoflurane in male but not female mice, which could rescue by lactate treatment. Our study suggests that repeated neonatal exposures to sevoflurane inhibit adult hippocampal neurogenesis and induce defects of synaptic plasticity in male but not female mice, which may contribute to long-term cognitive impairment. Lactate treatment rescues these abnormalities through activation of SIRT1.

Abstract
Acinar epithelial cell atrophy in secretory glands is a hallmark of primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS), the cause of which is far from elucidated. We examined the role of acinar atrophy by focusing on the metabolism of glandular epithelial cells and mitochondria in the pSS environment. After confirming the presence of a high-lactate environment in the labial glands of human pSS patients, we used the A253 cell line and NOD/Ltj mice as models to investigate the metabolic changes in salivary gland epithelial cells in a high-lactate environment in vitro and in vivo. We found that epithelial cells produced high levels of IL-6, IL-8, IFN-α, IFN-β and TNF-α and exhibited significant NF-κB and type I IFN-related pathway activation. The results confirmed that lactate damaged mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and led to its leakage, which subsequently activated the cGAS-STING pathway. Inflammatory cytokine production and pathway activation were inhibited in vivo and in vitro by the lactate scavenger sodium dichloroacetate (DCA). Our study provides new insights into the etiology and treatment of pSS from the perspective of cell metabolism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND About 10% of hematologic malignancies are multiple myeloma (MM), an untreatable cancer. Although lactate and branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) are involved in supporting various tumor growth, it is unknown whether they have any bearing on MM prognosis. METHODS MM-related datasets (GSE4581, GSE136337, and TCGA-MM) were acquired from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Lactate and BCAA metabolism-related subtypes were acquired separately via the R package "ConsensusClusterPlus" in the GSE4281 dataset. The R package "limma" and Venn diagram were both employed to identify lactate-BCAA metabolism-related genes. Subsequently, a lactate-BCAA metabolism-related prognostic risk model for MM patients was constructed by univariate Cox, Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO), and multivariate Cox regression analyses. The gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and R package "clusterProfiler"were applied to explore the biological variations between two groups. Moreover, single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA), Microenvironment Cell Populations-counter (MCPcounte), and xCell techniques were applied to assess tumor microenvironment (TME) scores in MM. Finally, the drug's IC50 for treating MM was calculated using the "oncoPredict" package, and further drug identification was performed by molecular docking. RESULTS Cluster 1 demonstrated a worse prognosis than cluster 2 in both lactate metabolism-related subtypes and BCAA metabolism-related subtypes. 244 genes were determined to be involved in lactate-BCAA metabolism in MM. The prognostic risk model was constructed by CKS2 and LYZ selected from this group of genes for MM, then the prognostic risk model was also stable in external datasets. For the high-risk group, a total of 13 entries were enriched. 16 entries were enriched to the low-risk group. Immune scores, stromal scores, immune infiltrating cells (except Type 17 T helper cells in ssGSEA algorithm), and 168 drugs'IC50 were statistically different between two groups. Alkylating potentially serves as a new agent for MM treatment. CONCLUSIONS CKS2 and LYZ were identified as lactate-BCAA metabolism-related genes in MM, then a novel prognostic risk model was built by using them. In summary, this research may uncover novel characteristic genes signature for the treatment and prognostic of MM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS A high mean arterial pressure (MAP) target has been associated with improved renal outcomes in patients with cirrhosis, though it has not been studied in critically ill patients with cirrhosis and septic shock (CICs). We compared the efficacy of a high (80-85 mmHg; H-MAP) vs. low (60-65; L-MAP) target MAP strategy in improving 28-day mortality in CICs. METHODS We performed open-label 1:1 randomisation of 150 CICs (H-MAP 75; L-MAP 75). The primary endpoint was 28-day mortality and secondary endpoints included reversal of shock, acute kidney injury (AKI) at day 5, the incidence of intradialytic hypotension (IDH), and adverse events. Endothelial markers were analysed in a subset of patients. RESULTS The baseline characteristics were comparable. On intention-to-treat analysis, 28-day mortality (65% vs. 56%; p = 0.54), reversal of shock (47% vs. 53%; p = 0.41) and AKI development (45% vs. 31%;p = 0.06) were not different between the H-MAP and L-MAP groups, respectively. A lower incidence of IDH (12% vs. 48%; p <0.001) and higher adverse events necessitating protocol discontinuation (24% vs. 11%; p = 0.031) were noted in the H-MAP group. On per-protocol analysis (L-MAP 67; H-MAP 57), a significantly higher reversal of AKI (53% vs. 31%; p = 0.02) and a lower incidence of IDH (4% vs. 53%; p <0.001) were observed in the H-MAP group. Endothelial repair markers such as ADAMTS (2.11 ± 1.13 vs. 1.15 ± 0.48; p = 0.002) and angiopoietin-2 (74.08 ± 53.00 vs. 41.80 ± 15.95; p = 0.016) were higher in the H-MAP group. CONCLUSIONS A higher MAP strategy does not confer a survival benefit in CICs, but improves tolerance to dialysis, lactate clearance and renal recovery. Higher adverse events indicate the need for better tools to evaluate target microcirculation pressures in CICs. IMPACT AND IMPLICATIONS Maintaining an appropriate organ perfusion pressure during sepsis is the ultimate goal of haemodynamic management. A higher mean arterial pressure (MAP) improves renal outcomes in patients with hepatorenal syndrome. Patients with cirrhosis and septic shock have severe circulatory disturbances, low MAP, and poor tissue perfusion. In these patients, targeting higher MAP vs. lower MAP does not confer any survival benefit but is associated with more adverse events. A higher target strategy was associated with better tolerance and lesser episodes of hypotension on dialysis. Patients who could achieve the higher target MAP, without the development of adverse events, had improved renal outcomes and better lactate clearance. Higher MAP was also associated with improvements in markers of endothelial function. A higher target MAP strategy, with close monitoring of adverse events, may be recommended for patients with cirrhosis and septic shock. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER NCT03145168.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus is an important cause of chronic infections resulting from the failure of the host to eliminate the pathogen. Effective S. aureus clearance requires CD4+ T cell-mediated immunity. We previously showed that myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) expand during staphylococcal infections and support infection chronicity by inhibiting CD4+ T cell responses. The aim of this study was to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the suppressive effect exerted by MDSC on CD4+ T cells during chronic S. aureus infection. It is well known that activated CD4+ T cells undergo metabolic reprogramming from oxidative metabolism to aerobic glycolysis to meet their increased bioenergetic requirements. In this process, pyruvate is largely transformed into lactate by lactate dehydrogenase with the concomitant regeneration of NAD+, which is necessary for continued glycolysis. The by-product lactate needs to be excreted to maintain the glycolytic flux. Using SCENITH (single-cell energetic metabolism by profiling translation inhibition), we demonstrated here that MDSC inhibit CD4+ T cell responses by interfering with their metabolic activity. MDSC are highly glycolytic and excrete large amount of lactate in the local environment that alters the transmembrane concentration gradient and prevent removal of lactate by activated CD4+ T. Accumulation of endogenous lactate impedes the regeneration of NAD+, inhibit NAD-dependent glycolytic enzymes and stop glycolysis. Together, the results of this study have uncovered a role for metabolism on MDSC suppression of CD4+ T cell responses. Thus, reestablishment of their metabolic activity may represent a mean to improve the functionality of CD4+ T cells during chronic S. aureus infection.

Abstract
Anaerobic, acetogenic bacteria are promising biocatalysts for a sustainable bioeconomy since they capture and convert carbon dioxide to acetic acid. Hydrogen is an intermediate in acetate formation from organic as well as C1 substrates. Here, we analyzed mutants of the model acetogen Acetobacterium woodii in which either one of the two hydrogenases or both together were genetically deleted. In resting cells of the double mutant, hydrogen formation from fructose was completely abolished and carbon was redirected largely to lactate. The lactate/fructose and lactate/acetate ratios were 1.24 and 2.76, respectively. We then tested for lactate formation from methyl groups (derived from glycine betaine) and carbon monoxide. Indeed, also under these conditions lactate and acetate were formed in equimolar amounts with a lactate/acetate ratio of 1.13. When the electron-bifurcating lactate dehydrogenase/ETF complex was genetically deleted, lactate formation was completely abolished. These experiments demonstrate the capability of A. woodii to produce lactate from fructose but also from promising C1 substrates, methyl groups and carbon monoxide. This adds an important milestone towards generation of a value chain leading from CO2 to value-added compounds. KEY POINTS: • Resting cells of the ΔhydBA/hdcr mutant of Acetobacterium woodii produced lactate from fructose or methyl groups + CO • Lactate formation from methyl groups + CO was completely abolished after deletion of lctBCD • Metabolic engineering of a homoacetogen to lactate formation gives a potential for industrial applications.

Abstract
Physical exercise involves increased neuronal activity of many brain structures, but 1H-MRS investigations on the effects of human brain glutamate (Glu) concentrations on acute exercise have been sparse. Previous studies consistently found increases in brain lactate (Lac) concentrations following graded exercise up to 85% of the predicted maximal heart rate. However, the reported effects on brain concentrations of glutamine and glutamate were not consistent. This study aimed to determine the effect of acute intense graded maximal exercise on 1H-MRS signals related to concentrations of Glu, glutamate+glutamine (Glx), and Lac. Young adult males were randomly divided into two groups and subjected to 1H-MRS when resting (NE) or shortly after cessation of the intense graded exercise intended to pass the anaerobic threshold (E). 1H-MRS spectra were acquired from the large voxel encompassing the occipito-parietal cortex only once. Estimates of Glu, Glx, and Lac concentrations were calculated in institutional units by normalizing to a spectroscopic signal originating from creatine-containing compounds (Cr). Concentrations of Glu, Glx, and Lac were respectively 11%, 12.6%, and 48.5% higher in E than in NE (p < 0.001). The increased brain Lac signal in the exercising group indicated that in our experiment, vigorous exercise resulted in passing the anaerobic threshold and lactate apparently entered the brain. Concomitantly glutamate-related resonance signals from the vicinity of the occipito-parietal cortex were significantly increased; physiological mechanisms underlying these phenomena require further study. Future studies should evaluate whether the normalization rate of these concentrations is a marker of general physical fitness.

Abstract
High material cost is the biggest barrier for the industrial use of low-molecular-weight organics (i.e. lactate) as external carbon and electron source for sulfidogenic metal removal in sulfate-rich effluents. This study aims to provide mechanistic evidence from kinetics to microbiome analysis by batch modeling to support the possibility of decreasing the lactate input to achieve cost-effective application. The results showed that gradient COD/SO42- ratios at a low level had promising treatment performance, reaching neutralized pH with nearly total elimination of COD (91%-99%), SO42- (85%-99%), metals (80%-99%) including Cu, Zn, and Mn. First-order kinetics exhibited the best fit (R2 = 0.81-0.98) to (bio)chemical reactions, and the simulation results revealed that higher COD/SO42- accelerated the reaction rate of SO42- and COD but not suitable to that of metals. On the other hand, we found that the decreasing COD/SO42- ratio increased average path distance but decreased clustering coefficient and heterogeneity in microbial interaction network. Genetic prediction found that the sulfate-reduction-related functions were significantly correlated with the reaction kinetics changed with COD/SO42- ratios. Our study, combining reaction kinetics with microbiome analysis, demonstrates that the use of lactate as a carbon source under low COD/SO42- ratios entails significant efficiency of metal removal in sulfate-rich effluent using SRB-based technology. However, further studies should be carried out, including parameter-driven optimization and life cycle assessments are necessary, for its practical application.

Abstract
Real-time and continuous monitoring of lactate levels in sweat has been used as an indicator of physiological information to evaluate exercise outcomes and sports performance. We developed an optimal enzyme-based biosensor to detect the concentrations of lactate in different fluids (i.e., a buffer solution and human sweat). The surface of the screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) was first treated with oxygen plasma and then surface-modified by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). The optimal sensing surface of the LDH-modified SPCE was identified by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis. After connecting the LDH-modified SPCE to a benchtop E4980A precision LCR meter, our results showed that the measured response was dependent on the lactate concentration. The recorded data exhibited a broad dynamic range of 0.1-100 mM (R2 = 0.95) and a limit of detection of 0.1 mM, which was unachievable without the incorporation of redox species. A state-of-the-art electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) chip was developed to integrate the LDH-modified SPCE for a portable bioelectronic platform in the detection of lactate in human sweat. We believe the optimal sensing surface can improve the sensitivity of lactate sensing in a portable bioelectronic EIS platform for early diagnosis or real-time monitoring during different physical activities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transfer (t)RNA-derived small RNA (tsRNA), generated from precursor or mature tRNA, is a new type of small non-coding RNA (sncRNA) that has recently been shown to play a vital role in human cancers. However, its role in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) remains unclear. METHODS We elucidated the expression profiles of tsRNAs in four paired LSCC and non-neoplastic tissues by sequencing and verified the sequencing data by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) of 60 paired samples. The tyrosine-tRNA derivative tRFTyr was identified as a novel oncogene in LSCC for further study. Loss-of-function experiments were performed to evaluate the roles of tRFTyr in tumorigenesis of LSCC. Mechanistic experiments including RNA pull-down, parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) were employed to uncover the regulatory mechanism of tRFTyr in LSCC. RESULTS tRFTyr was significantly upregulated in LSCC samples. Functional assays showed that knockdown of tRFTyr significantly suppressed the progression of LSCC. A series of mechanistic studies revealed that tRFTyr could enhance the phosphorylated level of lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) by interacting with it. The activity of LDHA was also activated, which induced lactate accumulation in LSCC cells. CONCLUSIONS Our data delineated the landscape of tsRNAs in LSCC and identified the oncogenic role of tRFTyr in LSCC. tRFTyr could promote lactate accumulation and tumour progression in LSCC by binding to LDHA. These findings may aid in the development of new diagnostic biomarkers and provide new insights into therapeutic strategies for LSCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) features include enhanced glycolysis and elevated lactate concentrations. Accumulation of lactate during metabolism provides a precursor for histone lysine modification. This study was designed to determine whether royal jelly acid (RJA) acts against HCC through the lactate modification pathway. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH The effects of RJA on Hep3B and HCCLM3 cell invasion, migration, proliferation, and apoptosis were investigated using cell scratching, colony formation assay, flow cytometry, western blotting, and real-time qPCR, gas chromatography, and RNA sequencing to determine the pathways and molecular targets involved. Tumor xenografts were used to evaluate the anti-HCC effects of RJA in vivo. In-cell Western blotting and expression correlation analysis were applied to confirm the associations between H3 histone lactylation and the antitumor effects of RJA. KEY RESULTS RJA has good antitumor effects in vivo and in vitro. Multi-omics analysis with metabolome and transcriptome determined that the glycolytic metabolic pathway provided the principle antitumor effect of RJA. Further mechanistic studies showed that RJA inhibited HCC development by interfering with lactate production and inhibiting H3 histone lactylation at H3K9la and H3K14la sites. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS This study first demonstrated that RJA exerts antitumor effects by affecting the glycolytic pathway. RJA could regulate the lactylation of H3K9la and H3K14la sites on H3 histone using lactate as a clue in the glycolytic pathway. Therefore, the lactylation of H3 histone is vital in exerting the antitumor effect of RJA, providing new evidence for screening and exploring antitumor drug mechanisms in the later stage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Veno-arterial carbon dioxide tension difference (ΔPCO2) and mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) have been shown to be markers of the adequacy between cardiac output and metabolic needs in critical care patients. However, they have hardly been assessed in trauma patients. We hypothesized that femoral ΔPCO2 (ΔPCO2 fem) and SvO2 (SvO2 fem) could predict the need for red blood cell (RBC) transfusion following severe trauma. METHODS We conducted a prospective and observational study in a French level I trauma center. Patients admitted to the trauma room following severe trauma with an Injury Severity Score (ISS) > 15, who had arterial and venous femoral catheters inserted were included. ΔPCO2 fem, SvO2 fem and arterial blood lactate were measured over the first 24 h of admission. Their abilities to predict the transfusion of at least one pack of RBC (pRBCH6) or hemostatic procedure during the first six hours of admission were assessed using receiver operating characteristics curve. RESULTS 59 trauma patients were included in the study. Median ISS was 26 (22-32). 28 patients (47%) received at least one pRBCH6 and 21 patients (35,6%) had a hemostatic procedure performed during the first six hours of admission. At admission, ΔPCO2 fem was 9.1 ± 6.0 mmHg, SvO2 fem 61.5 ± 21.6% and blood lactate was 2.7 ± 1.9 mmol/l. ΔPCO2 fem was significantly higher (11.6 ± 7.1 mmHg vs. 6.8 ± 3.7 mmHg, P = 0.003) and SvO2 fem was significantly lower (50 ± 23 mmHg vs. 71.8 ± 14.1 mmHg, P < 0.001) in patients who were transfused than in those who were not transfused. Best thresholds to predict pRBCH6 were 8.1 mmHg for ΔPCO2 fem and 63% for SvO2 fem. Best thresholds to predict the need for a hemostatic procedure were 5.9 mmHg for ΔPCO2 fem and 63% for SvO2 fem. Blood lactate was not predictive of pRBCH6 or the need for a hemostatic procedure. CONCLUSION In severe trauma patients, ΔPCO2 fem and SvO2 fem at admission were predictive for the need of RBC transfusion and hemostatic procedures during the first six hours of management while admission lactate was not. ΔPCO2 fem and SvO2 fem appear thus to be more sensitive to blood loss than blood lactate in trauma patients, which might be of importance to early assess the adequation of tissue blood flow with metabolic needs.

Abstract
Recently, we reported a circular cell culture (CCC) system using microalgae and animal muscle cells for sustainable culture food production. However, lactate accumulation excreted by animal cells in the system characterized by medium reuse was a huge problem. To solve the problem, as an advanced CCC, we used a lactate-assimilating cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002, using gene-recombination technology that synthesises pyruvate from lactate. We found that the cyanobacteria and animal cells mutually exchanged substances via their waste media: (i) cyanobacteria used lactate and ammonia excreted by animal muscle cells, and (ii) the animal cells used pyruvate and some amino acids excreted by the cyanobacteria. Because of this, animal muscle C2C12 cells were amplified efficiently without animal serum in cyanobacterial culture waste medium in two cycles (first cycle: 3.6-fold; second cycle: 3.9-fold/three days-cultivation) using the same reuse medium. We believe that this advanced CCC system will solve the problem of lactate accumulation in cell culture and lead to efficient cultured food production.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Socioeconomic pressures, sex, and physical health status strongly influence the development of major depressive disorder (MDD) and mask other contributing factors in small cohorts. Resilient individuals overcome adversity without the onset of psychological symptoms, but resilience, as for susceptibility, has a complex and multifaceted molecular basis. The scale and depth of the UK Biobank affords an opportunity to identify resilience biomarkers in rigorously matched, at-risk individuals. Here, we evaluated whether blood metabolites could prospectively classify and indicate a biological basis for susceptibility or resilience to MDD. METHODS Using the UK Biobank, we employed random forests, a supervised, interpretable machine learning statistical method to determine the relative importance of sociodemographic, psychosocial, anthropometric, and physiological factors that govern the risk of prospective MDD onset (total n = 15,710). We then used propensity scores to rigorously match individuals with a history of MDD (n = 491) against a resilient subset of individuals without an MDD diagnosis (retrospectively or during follow-up; n = 491) using an array of key social, demographic, and disease-associated drivers of depression risk. 381 blood metabolites and clinical chemistry variables and 4 urine metabolites were integrated to generate a multivariate random forest-based algorithm using 10-fold cross-validation to predict prospective MDD risk and resilience. OUTCOMES In unmatched individuals, a first case of MDD, with a median time-to-diagnosis of 72 years, can be predicted using random forest classification probabilities with an area under the receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC AUC) of 0.89. Prospective resilience/susceptibility to MDD was then predicted with a ROC AUC of 0.72 (x˜ = 3.2 years follow-up) and 0.68 (x˜ = 7.2 years follow-up). Increased pyruvate was identified as a key biomarker of resilience to MDD and was validated retrospectively in the TwinsUK cohort. INTERPRETATION Blood metabolites prospectively associate with substantially reduced MDD risk. Therapeutic targeting of these metabolites may provide a framework for MDD risk stratification and reduction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As per the latest Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines, fluid resuscitation should be guided by repeated measurements of blood lactate levels until normalization. Nevertheless, raised lactate levels should be interpreted in the clinical context, as there may be other causes of elevated lactate levels. Thus, it may not be the best tool for real-time assessment of the effect of hemodynamic resuscitation, and exploring alternative resuscitation targets should be an essential research priority in sepsis.
AIM To compare the 28-d mortality in two clinical patterns of septic shock: hyperlactatemic patients with hypoperfusion context and hyperlactatemic patients without hypoperfusion context.
METHODS This prospective comparative observational study carried out on 135 adult patients with septic shock that met Sepsis-3 definitions compared patients with hyperlactatemia in a hypoperfusion context (Group 1, n = 95) and patients with hyperlactatemia in a non-hypoperfusion context (Group 2, n = 40). Hypoperfusion context was defined by a central venous saturation less than 70%, central venous-arterial PCO2 gradient [P(cv-a)CO2] ≥ 6 mmHg, and capillary refilling time (CRT) ≥ 4 s. The patients were observed for various macro and micro hemodynamic parameters at regular intervals of 0 h, 3 h, and 6 h. All-cause 28-d mortality and all other secondary objective parameters were observed at specified intervals. Nominal categorical data were compared using the χ2 or Fisher’s exact test. Non-normally distributed continuous variables were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis with the Youden index determined the cutoff values of lactate, CRT, and metabolic perfusion parameters to predict the 28-d all-cause mortality. A P value of < 0.05 was considered significant.
RESULTS Patient demographics, comorbidities, baseline laboratory, vital parameters, source of infection, baseline lactate levels, and lactate clearance at 3 h and 6 h, Sequential Organ Failure scores, need for invasive mechanical ventilation, days on mechanical ventilation, and renal replacement therapy-free days within 28 d, duration of intensive care unit stay, and hospital stay were comparable between the two groups. The stratification of patients into hypoperfusion and non-hypoperfusion context did not result in a significantly different 28-d mortality (24% vs 15%, respectively; P = 0.234). However, the patients within the hypoperfusion context with high P(cv-a)CO2 and CRT (P = 0.022) at baseline had significantly higher mortality than Group 2. The norepinephrine dose was higher in Group 1 but did not achieve statistical significance with a P > 0.05 at all measured intervals. Group 1 had a higher proportion of patients requiring vasopressin and the mean vasopressor-free days out of the total 28 d were lower in patients with hypoperfusion (18.88 ± 9.04 vs 21.08 ± 8.76; P = 0.011). The mean lactate levels and lactate clearance at 3 h and 6 h, CRT, P(cv-a)CO2 at 0 h, 3 h, and 6 h were found to be associated with 28-d mortality in patients with septic shock, with lactate levels at 6 h having the best predictive value (area under the curve lactate at 6 h: 0.845).
CONCLUSION Septic shock patients fulfilling the hypoperfusion and non-hypoperfusion context exhibited similar 28-d all-cause hospital mortality, although patients with hypoperfusion displayed a more severe circulatory dysfunction. Lactate levels at 6 h had a better predictive value in predicting 28-d mortality than other parameters. Persistently high P(cv-a)CO2 (> 6 mmHg) or increased CRT (> 4 s) at 3 h and 6 h during early resuscitation can be a valuable additional aid for prognostication of septic shock patients.

Abstract
The evolving understanding of cellular metabolism has revealed a the promise of strategies aiming to modulate anticancer immunity by targeting metabolism. The combination of metabolic inhibitors with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), chemotherapy and radiotherapy may offer new approaches to cancer treatment. However, it remains unclear how these strategies can be better utilized despite the complex tumour microenvironment (TME). Oncogene-driven metabolic changes in tumour cells can affect the TME, limiting the immune response and creating many barriers to cancer immunotherapy. These changes also reveal opportunities to reshape the TME to restore immunity by targeting metabolic pathways. Further exploration is required to determine how to make better use of these mechanistic targets. Here, we review the mechanisms by which tumour cells reshape the TME and cause immune cells to transition into an abnormal state by secreting multiple factors, with the ultimate goal of proposing targets and optimizing the use of metabolic inhibitors. Deepening our understanding of changes in metabolism and immune function in the TME will help advance this promising field and enhance immunotherapy.

Abstract
Globally, breast cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death in women. Metabolic reprogramming and immune escape are two important mechanisms supporting the progression of breast cancer. Lactate in tumors mainly comes from glycolysis and glutaminolysis. Using multiomics data analysis, we found that lactate is mainly derived from glycolysis in breast cancer. Single-cell transcriptome analysis found that breast cancer cells with higher malignancy, especially those in the cell cycle, have higher expression levels of glycolytic metabolic enzymes. Combined with clinical data analysis, it was found that the expression of the lactate transporter SLC16A3 is correlated with breast cancer molecular subtypes and immune infiltration. Among 22 immune cells, macrophages are the most abundant immune cells in breast cancer tissues, and the proportion of M1 macrophages is lower in the high SLC16A3 expression group. Finally, in vitro experiments confirmed that lactate could inhibit the expression of M1 macrophage markers at both RNA and protein levels. In conclusion, we found that lactate produced by glycolysis regulates the polarization of inflammatory macrophages in breast cancer.

Abstract
Deoxynivalenol is present in forage crops in concentrations that endanger animal welfare but is also found in cereal-based food. The amphipathic nature of mycotoxins allows them to cross the cell membrane and interacts with different cell organelles such as mitochondria and ribosomes. In our study, we investigated the gene expression of several genes in vivo and in vitro that are related to the metabolism. We observed a significantly higher COX5B and MHCII expression in enterocytes of DON-fed pigs compared to CON-fed pigs and a marked increase in GAPDH and SLC7A11 in DON-fed pigs, but we could not confirm this in vitro in IPEC-1. In vitro, functional metabolic analyses were performed with a seahorse analyzer. A significant increase of non-mitochondrial respiration was observed in all DON-treatment groups (50-2000 ng/mL). The oxygen consumption of cells, which were cultured on membranes, was examined with a fiber-glass electrode. Here, we found significantly lower values for DON 200- and DON 2000-treatment group. The effect on ribosomes was investigated using biorthogonal non-canonical amino acid tagging (BONCAT) to tag newly synthesized proteins. A significantly reduced amount was found in almost all DON-treatment groups. Our findings clearly show that apical and basolateral DON-treatment of epithelial cell layer results in decreasing amounts of newly synthesized proteins. Furthermore, our study shows that DON affects enterocyte metabolism in vivo and in vitro.

Abstract
Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is the primary reason for neonatal mortality and prolonged disablement. Currently, hypothermia is the only approved clinical treatment available for HIE. However, hypothermia's limited therapeutic efficacy and adverse effects suggest an urgent need to advance our knowledge of its molecular pathogenesis and develop novel therapies. The leading cause of HIE is impaired cerebral blood flow and oxygen deprivation-initiated primary and secondary energy failure. Lactate was traditionally regarded as a marker of energy failure or a waste product of anaerobic glycolysis. Recently, the beneficial aspects of lactate as supplementary energy for neurons have been demonstrated. Under the conditions of HI, lactate supports various functions of neuronal cells, including learning and memory formation, motor coordination, and somatosensory. Furthermore, lactate contributes to the regeneration of blood vessels and has shown its beneficial effects on the immune system. This review first introduces the hypoxic or ischemic events-induced fundamental pathophysiological changes in HIE and then discusses the potential neuroprotective properties of lactate for the treatment and prevention of HIE. Finally, we discuss the possible protective mechanisms of lactate in the context of the pathological features of perinatal HIE. We conclude that exogenous and endogenous lactate exert neuroprotective effects in HIE. Lactate administration may be a potential approach to treating HIE injury.

Abstract
The deleterious effects of aflatoxins, especially aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) which are widespread at all stages of food production, on the reproductive system have been widely reported in males. However, it is still far from fully understood about the toxic effect and molecular mechanism after exposure to AFB1 in various testicular cells, especially Sertoli cells (SCs) which provide various energy materials and support to the developing germ cells as nurse cells. In this work, we examined the effects of AFB1 in dairy goat SCs on lactate production and autophagy, and the role of autophagy on AFB1-induced reduction in lactate production. Mechanistically, AFB1 destroyed the energy balance and reduced the secretion of lactate in dairy goat SCs (P < 0.01), resulting in a reduced level of ATP (P < 0.01) and phosphorylation of AMPK (P < 0.01). Subsequently, activated AMPK triggers autophagy by directly phosphorylating ULK1 (P < 0.05). The enhancement of autophagy partially reversed the AFB1-induced decrease in lactate secretion by promoting glucose utilization (P < 0.01) and increasing the expression of proteins related to lactate secretion in dairy goat SCs (P < 0.05) such as GLUT1, GLUT3, LDHA, and MCT4. Collectively, our study suggests that AFB1 inhibits the secretion of lactate which supply for germ cell development by damaging the "Warburg-like" metabolism of dairy goat SCs. Moreover, autophagy contributes to the resistance of glucose metabolism damage induced by AFB1. DATA AVAILABILITY: All data generated or analyzed in this study are available from the corresponding authors upon request.

Abstract
Lactate is abundant in cancer tissues due to active glycolysis (aka Warburg effect) and mediates crosstalk between tumor cells and the immune microenvironment (TIME) to promote the progression of breast cancer. Quercetin (QU) is a potent monocarboxylate transporters (MCT) inhibitor, which can reduce lactate production and secretion of tumor cells. Doxorubicin (DOX) can induce immunogenic cell death (ICD), which promotes tumor-specific immune activation. Thus, we propose a combination therapy of QU&DOX to inhibit lactate metabolism and stimulate anti-tumor immunity. To enhance tumor-targeting efficiency, we developed a legumain-activatable liposome system (KC26-Lipo) with modification of KC26 peptide for co-delivery of QU&DOX for modulation of tumor metabolism and TIME in breast cancer. The KC26 peptide is a legumain-responsive, hairpin-structured cell-penetrating peptide (polyarginine) derivative. Legumain is a protease overexpressed in breast tumors, allowing selective activation of the KC26-Lipo to subsequently facilitate intra-tumoral and intracellular penetration. The KC26-Lipo effectively inhibited 4 T1 breast cancer tumor growth through chemotherapy and anti-tumor immunity. Besides, inhibition of lactate metabolism suppressed the HIF-1α/VEGF pathway and angiogenesis and repolarized the tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). This work provides a promising breast cancer therapy strategy by regulating lactate metabolism and TIME.

Abstract
Acetoin, an important and high-value added bio-based platform chemical, has been widely applied in fields of foods, cosmetics, chemical synthesis, and agriculture. Lactate is a significant intermediate short-chain carboxylate in the anaerobic breakdown of carbohydrates that comprise ~ 18% and ~ 70% in municipal wastewaters and some food processing wastewaters, respectively. In this work, a series of engineered Escherichia coli strains were constructed for efficient production of acetoin from cheaper and abundant lactate through heterogenous co-expression of fusion protein (α-acetolactate synthetase and α-acetolactate decarboxylase), lactate dehydrogenase and NADH oxidase, and blocking acetate synthesis pathways. After optimization of whole-cell bioconversion conditions, the engineered strain BL-11 produced 251.97 mM (22.20 g/L) acetoin with a yield of 0.434 mol/mol in shake flasks. Moreover, a titer of 648.97mM (57.18 g/L) acetoin was obtained in 30 h with a yield of 0.484 mol/mol lactic acid in a 1-L bioreactor. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the production of acetoin from renewable lactate through whole-cell bioconversion with both high titer and yield, which demonstrates the economy and efficiency of acetoin production from lactate. Key Points • The lactate dehydrogenases from different organisms were expressed, purified, and assayed. • It is the first time that acetoin was produced from lactate by whole-cell biocatalysis. • The highest titer of 57.18 g/L acetoin was obtained with high theoretical yield in a 1-L bioreactor.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To assess the prevalence of preoperative acidosis and lactatemia in elderly patients having hip fracture surgery and their association with post-operative mortality. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Single tertiary medical center. PATIENTS Patients ≥65 years having first traumatic hip fracture surgery between 2018 and 2021. MEASUREMENTS 90-day postoperative mortality. MAIN RESULTS In total, 1267 patients were included in the primary analysis (mean (SD) age 83(8) years; 802 (69%) females; median [Interquartile Range (IQR)] American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical score 3 [2,3]). Of these, 1227 were available for the multivariable analyses. Median [IQR] time from hospitalization to surgery was 28 [20, 42] hours. All-cause 90-day mortality rate was 9% (N = 114). The incidence of preoperative acidosis (pH < 7.35) and lactatemia (>1.2 mmol/L) was significantly higher among non-survivors. Mortality was highest in patients with both acidosis and lactatemia (19.1% compared to 4.4% among patients with neither). In a multivariable model, pH <7.35 and lactate >1.2 mmol/L remained independent predictors of 90-day mortality, with adjusted odds ratio (aOR) (95%CI) of 1.99 (1.31 to 3.04) and 2.32 (1.44 to 3.74), respectively, p = 0.001 for both. Time from hospitalization to surgery was not associated with mortality after adjustment for metabolic indices, aOR 1.00 (0.99, 1.00). CONCLUSIONS Preoperative acidosis and lactatemia are common among patients ≥65 years having hip fracture surgery and are associated with 90-day all-cause mortality. Time from hospital admission to surgery is not an independent risk factor, once adjusted for metabolic indices. Future studies should evaluate whether the increased risk associated with preoperative metabolic disturbances is modifiable.

Abstract
PURPOSE To quantitatively assess the dynamic changes of Lactate in lumbar discs under different physiological conditions using MRS and T2r. METHODS In step1, MRS and T2r sequences were standardized in 10 volunteers. Step2, analysed effects of high cellular demand. 66 discs of 20 volunteers with no back pain were evaluated pre-exercise (EX-0), immediately after targeted short-time low back exercises (EX-1) and 60 min after (EX-2). In Step 3, to study effects of high glucose and oxygen concentration, 50 lumbar discs in 10 volunteers were analysed before (D0) and after 10 days intake of the calcium channel blocker, nimodipine (D1). RESULTS Lactate showed a distinctly different response to exercise in that Grade 1 discs with a significant decrease in EX-1 and a trend for normalization in Ex-2. In contrast, Pfirrmann grade 2 and 3 and discs above 40 years showed a higher lactate relative to proteoglycan in EX-0, an increase in lactate EX-1 and mild dip in Ex-2. Similarly, following nimodipine, grade 1 discs showed an increase in lactate which was absent in grade 2 and 3 discs. In contrast, exercise and Nimodipine had no significant change in T2r values and MRS spectrum of proteoglycan, N-acetyl aspartate, carbohydrate, choline, creatine, and glutathione across age groups and Pfirrmann grades. CONCLUSION MRS documented changes in lactate response to cellular demand which suggested a 'Lactate Symbiotic metabolic Pathway'. The differences in lactate response preceded changes in Proteoglycan/hydration and thus could be a dynamic radiological biomarker of early degeneration.
