Lactate Signal: Modulator of Cellular Energy Production and Anabolism
ABSTRACT Lactate is no longer viewed simply as a glycolytic end‐product, but as a compartmentalized signaling metabolite that coordinates energy production, carbon redistribution, redox balance, and anabolic commitment. This review discusses lactate as a regulator of the catabolism‐anabolism axis, emphasizing two major...
