Key result
Microdialysis with beta blockers and ouabain decreased lactate formation in rodent shock models, where muscle lactate concentrations were higher than arterial levels (P<0.05).
Why the study?
Does local modulation with beta blockers and ouabain reduce muscle lactate production in rat models of shock?
Does local modulation with beta blockers and ouabain reduce muscle lactate production in rat models of shock?
p-value: p=<0.05
In rat models of shock, muscle lactate production is driven in part by increased NaK-ATPase activity under beta2 stimulation rather than solely by reduced oxygen availability.

Highlights NaK-ATPase contribution to lactate in shock models; leaves open clinical translation or modulation.
Lévy et al. (2008) studied Shock states (endotoxin, peritonitis, and hemorrhage). Microdialysis with nonselective and selective beta blockers and ouabain was evaluated on Difference between muscle lactate and blood lactate concentration (p=<0.05). Microdialysis with beta blockers and ouabain decreased lactate formation in rodent shock models, where muscle lactate concentrations were higher than arterial levels (P<0.05).
