Background And Aims: We undertook this study to detect if there is a relationship between lactate production in the myocardium and the presence or absence of chest pain in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).
Methods: Forty six patients with significant CAD including left anterior descending artery underwent echocardiography study, coronary angiography and pacing-induced ischemia. Serum lactate levels were determined in four blood samples, from mid-LV cavity and from coronary sinus before and after pacing-induced ischemia. Twenty eight patients comprised angina group and 18 patients comprised silent myocardial ischemia (SMI) group during pacing-induced ischemia.
Results: Eighteen patients (64.3%) of angina group had lactate production during ischemia. Eighteen patients of SMI group (100%) had diminished lactate extraction, and none had lactate production.
Conclusion: The novel finding of this study is that the major difference in metabolism during SMI and angina pectoris is in the state of lactate production, which is absent during SMI and present during angina. We assume that lactate is the stimulus of cardiac ischemic pain and when its level increases, it stimulates pain receptors leading to chest pain.

Lymphangiogenesis is vital for tissue fluid homeostasis, immune function, and lipid absorption. Abnormal lymphangiogenesis has been implicated in several diseases such as cancers, inflammatory, and autoimmune diseases. In this study, we elucidate the role of tsRNA-0032 in lymphangiogenesis and its molecular mechanism.

This study focuses on the development of an efficient membrane-based clarification process to enhance the performance of subsequent ultrafiltration and produce high-quality sweet lime juice. A range of casting solutions were prepared using a blend of pore-forming polymers, including polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), and cellulose acetate (CA), dissolved in dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent through the phase inversion technique. To further enhance the membrane's performance, four biopolymers poly (lactic acid) (PLA), xanthan gum, chitosan, and gelatin were incorporated, with and without clay, to refine its structure, porosity, and surface properties.

Present research focused on biotransformation of paneer whey into a functional fermented product using kefir culture. Out of 9 formulations (S-1 to S-9) tried; S-8, obtained by fermenting FOS (1%) supplemented paneer whey and adding 8% refined sugar, was identified as the most acceptable product. Nutritional analysis revealed the following as per 100 g of product: 44.

Lactate, long viewed as a byproduct of glycolysis and metabolic waste. Initially identified within the context of yogurt fermentation, lactate's role extends beyond culinary applications to its significance in biochemical processes. Contemporary research reveals that lactate functions not merely as the terminal product of glycolysis but also as a nexus for initiating physiological and pathological responses within the body.
