Distinct lactate metabolism between hepatocytes and myotubes revealed by live cell imaging with genetically encoded indicators
The process of glycolysis breaks down glycogen stored in muscles, producing lactate through pyruvate to generate energy. Excess lactate is then released into the bloodstream. When lactate reaches the liver, it is converted to glucose, which muscles utilize as a substrate to generate ATP. Although th...
