We studied the role of lactate in gluconeogenesis (GNG) during exercise in untrained fasting humans. During the final hour of a 4-h cycle exercise at 33-34% maximal O(2) uptake, seven subjects received, in random order, either a sodium lactate infusion (60 micromol x kg(-1) x min(-1)) or an isomolar sodium bicarbonate infusion. The contribution of lactate to gluconeogenic glucose was quantified by measuring (2)H incorporation into glucose after body water was labeled with deuterium oxide, and glucose rate of appearance (R(a)) was measured by [6,6-(2)H(2)]glucose dilution. Infusion of lactate increased lactate concentration to 4.4 +/- 0.6 mM (mean +/- SE). Exercise induced a decrease in blood glucose concentration from 5.0 +/- 0.2 to 4.2 +/- 0.3 mM (P < 0.05); lactate infusion abolished this decrease (5.0 +/- 0.3 mM; P < 0.001) and increased glucose R(a) compared with bicarbonate infusion (P < 0.05). Lactate infusion increased both GNG from lactate (29 +/- 4 to 46 +/- 4% of glucose R(a), P < 0.001) and total GNG. We conclude that lactate infusion during low-intensity exercise in fasting humans 1). increased GNG from lactate and 2). increased glucose production, thus increasing the blood glucose concentration. These results indicate that GNG capacity is available in humans after an overnight fast and can be used to sustain blood glucose levels during low-intensity exercise when lactate, a known precursor of GNG, is available at elevated plasma levels. |
