| Targets |
L-Lactate dehydrogenase targets lactate and pyruvate as substrates. The enzyme catalyzes the interconversion of lactate and pyruvate with the concomitant interconversion of NADH and NAD⁺. It is a key enzyme in anaerobic metabolism and is used in diagnostic analysis.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, L-Lactate dehydrogenase is used in biochemical enzyme assays and in vitro diagnostic analysis. The reversible conversion of lactate to pyruvate is catalyzed by LDH and is driven to completion by excess NAD or NADH. The enzyme is used for the quantitative determination of either lactate or pyruvate in biological samples.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, L-Lactate dehydrogenase is a key enzyme in anaerobic metabolism, converting pyruvate to lactate during glycolysis when oxygen is limited. It is present in many tissues and is released into the bloodstream upon tissue damage. The enzyme is used as a diagnostic marker for various diseases, including myocardial infarction and liver disease.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme assays for L-Lactate dehydrogenase activity involve incubating the enzyme with lactate and NAD⁺ (for the forward reaction) or pyruvate and NADH (for the reverse reaction) in buffer at pH 7.4-8.0. The reaction is monitored spectrophotometrically by measuring the change in absorbance at 340 nm due to NADH consumption or production. Enzyme activity is expressed in units per milliliter.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cell assays, L-Lactate dehydrogenase is not typically used as a treatment but rather as a marker of cell viability and cytotoxicity. LDH release into the culture medium is measured as an indicator of cell membrane damage. Cell culture supernatants are incubated with LDH substrate (lactate and NAD⁺), and the formation of NADH is measured spectrophotometrically at 340 nm.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo animal studies, L-Lactate dehydrogenase is not administered as a drug. Instead, serum or plasma LDH activity is measured as a diagnostic marker for tissue damage. Blood samples are collected from rodents, and LDH activity is measured using colorimetric or spectrophotometric assays. Elevated LDH levels indicate tissue damage or disease.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
L-Lactate dehydrogenase (MW ~140 kDa) is a tetrameric enzyme composed of four subunits. It is stable as a lyophilized powder and should be stored at -20°C. For assays, the enzyme should be diluted in Tris-HCl buffer (10 mM), pH 7.5 containing 1 mg/mL BSA. The enzyme is active at physiological pH and temperature. It requires NAD⁺ or NADH as cofactor.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The compound is for research use only. No specific toxicity data are available for the enzyme itself. As a protein, LDH is generally considered safe for research use. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling the enzyme.
