High L-lactate concentrations have negligible effects on voltage-dependent Ca2+ release or SR Ca2+ handling and exert only a modest inhibitory effect on skeletal muscle contractility at the level of contractile proteins.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Lactate's modest inhibitory effect on contractile proteins warrants caution in fatigue models; leaves open translation to human exercise or disease states.
Posterino et al. (2000) studied this question.
