Is Lactate an Oncometabolite? Evidence Supporting a Role for Lactate in the Regulation of Transcriptional Activity of Cancer-Related Genes in MCF7 Breast Cancer Cells. [PDF]
, 2019 Lactate is a ubiquitous molecule in cancer. In this exploratory study, our aim was to test the hypothesis that lactate could function as an oncometabolite by evaluating whether lactate exposure modifies the expression of oncogenes, or genes encoding ...

Lysine l-lactylation is the dominant lactylation isomer induced by glycolysis [PDF]
Nature Chemical BiologyAbstractLysine l-lactylation (Kl-la) is a novel protein posttranslational modification (PTM) driven by l-lactate. This PTM has three isomers: Kl-la, N-ε-(carboxyethyl)-lysine (Kce) and d-lactyl-lysine (Kd-la), which are often confused in the context of the Warburg effect and nuclear presence. Here we introduce two methods to differentiate these isomers:

Lactate Suppresses Immunometabolic and Inflammatory Responses in Monocytes [PDF]
, 2022 Many diseases are preventable through regular exercise. However, high-intensity exercise can transiently suppress immune function. Lactate can decrease inflammatory responses through epigenetic modifications such as histone lactylation, inhibiting ...
