Clinical monograph: lactate

BNF-referenced

Lactate, the anion of lactic acid, is a key intermediate in metabolic processes, primarily produced during anaerobic glycolysis. It serves as an important energy source, particularly for heart and skeletal muscle, and plays a crucial role in the Cori cycle, where it is converted back to glucose in the liver. Elevated lactate levels can indicate anaerobic metabolism, often observed in conditions such as sepsis, shock, or strenuous exercise.

Indications

Metabolic acidosis
Lactic acidosis
Energy substrate in critical illness
Monitoring tissue perfusion and oxygenation

Dosage

Children: Refer to the BNF for Children for appropriate dosing in paediatric patients.

Adults: Refer to specific guidelines based on clinical context as dosing is highly variable and situation-dependent.

Mechanism of action

Lactate acts as a signaling molecule and energy substrate in various physiological and pathological processes. It is involved in the modulation of several metabolic pathways, including the Cori cycle and Krebs cycle. Lactate also participates in metabolic reprogramming, especially in cancer cells, where it can promote tumor growth and survival by providing an alternative energy source and influencing cellular signaling pathways such as the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.

Pharmacodynamics

Lactate plays a vital role in energy metabolism. It can be oxidized back to pyruvate by lactate dehydrogenase, entering the Krebs cycle for ATP production. In addition to serving as an energy substrate, lactate impacts pH regulation and can influence the function of various immune cells. Its levels can indicate the state of oxygen delivery and utilization in tissues, thus serving as a marker for metabolic stress.

Pharmacokinetics

Lactate is produced primarily in the cytoplasm during glycolysis, with its concentration in the blood reflecting the balance between production and clearance. It is metabolized predominantly in the liver, where it can be converted back to glucose or utilized in the Krebs cycle. Lactate levels can vary based on factors such as exercise, tissue hypoxia, and metabolic conditions.

Pregnancy

Lactate is generally regarded as safe during pregnancy as it is a naturally occurring metabolite in the body, but specific clinical advice should be sought.

Breast-feeding

Lactate is considered safe during breastfeeding as it is a normal component of human metabolism, but consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
