Favero, Terence G., Anthony C. Zable, David Colter, and Jonathan J. Abramson. Lactate inhibits Ca2+-activated Ca2+-channel activity from skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. J. Appl. Physiol. 82(2): 447–452, 1997.—Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-release channel function is modified by ligands that are generated during about of exercise. We have examined the effects of lactate on Ca2+- and caffeine-stimulated Ca2+ release, [3H]ryanodine binding, and single Ca2+-release channel activity of SR isolated from rabbit white skeletal muscle. Lactate, at concentrations from 10 to 30 mM, inhibited Ca2+- and caffeine-stimulated [3H]ryanodine binding to and inhibited Ca2+- and caffeine-stimulated Ca2+ release from SR vesicles. Lactate also inhibited caffeine activation of single-channel activity in bilayer reconstitution experiments. These findings suggest that intense muscle activity, which generates high concentrations of lactate, will disrupt excitation-contraction coupling. This may lead to decreases in Ca2+ transients promoting a decline in tension development and contribute to muscle fatigue.
