    Abstract:
    The present experiments were undertaken to assess dynamics of hepatic lactate and glucose balance in the over-night-fasted dog during 150 min of moderate-intensity treadmill exercise and 90 min of exercise recovery. Catheters were implanted chronically in an artery and portal and hepatic veins 16 days before experimentation. 3-3H-glucose was infused to determine hepatic glucose uptake, as well as tracer-determined glucose production by isotope dilution (Ra). At rest, net hepatic lactate output was 0.33 +/- 0.15 mg.kg-1.min-1 and increased to 2.26 +/- 0.82 mg.kg-1.min-1 after 10 min of exercise, after which it fell such that the liver was a net lactate consumer by the end of exercise and through recovery. In contrast to the rapid release of lactate, net hepatic glucose output rose gradually from 2.58 +/- 0.20 mg.kg-1.min-1 at rest to 8.87 +/- 0.85 mg.kg-1.min-1 after 60 min of exercise, beyond which it did not change significantly until the cessation of exercise. Hepatic glucose uptake at rest was 1.38 +/- 0.42 mg.kg-1.min-1 and did not change appreciably during exercise or recovery. Absolute hepatic glucose output (net glucose output plus uptake) rose from 3.96 +/- 0.45 mg.kg-1.min-1 at rest to 10.20 +/- 1.09 mg.kg-1.min-1 after 60 min of exercise and was 9.65 +/- 1.15 mg.kg-1.min-1 at 150 min of exercise. Ra rose from 3.34 +/- 0.21 mg.kg-1.min-1 to 7.58 +/- 0.73 and 8.59 +/- 0.77 mg.kg-1.min-1 at 60 and 150 min, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
