[2-3H,U-14C]- or [3-3H,U-14C]-Lactate was administered by infusion or bolus injection to overnight-starved rats. Tracer lactate was injected or infused through indwelling cannulas into the aorta, and blood was sampled from the vena cava (A-VC mode), or it was administered into the vena cava and sampled from the aorta (V-A mode). Sampling was continued after infusion was terminated to obtain the wash-out curves for the tracer. The activities of lactate, glucose, amino acids and water were followed. The kinetics of labeled lactate in the 2 modes differed markedly, but the kinetics of labeled glucose were much the same irrespective of mode. The kinetics of 3H-labeled lactate differed markedly from those for [U-14C]lactate. Isotopic steady state was attained in < 1 h of infusion of [3H]lactate but required over 6 h for [U-14C]lactate. 3H from [2-3H]lactate labels glucose more extensive than does that from [3-3H]lactate. [3-3H]Lactate also labels plasma amino acids. The distribution of 3H in glucose was determined. Maximal radioactivity in 3HOH in plamsa is attained in < 1 min after injection. Near-maximal radioactivity in [14C]glucose and [3H]glucose is attained within 2-3 min after injection. The apparent replacement rates for lactate were calculated from the areas under the specific-radioactivity curves or plateau specific radioactivities after primed infusion. Results calculated from bolus injection and infusion agreed closely. The apparent replacement rate for [3H]lactate from the A-VC mode averaged about 16 mg/min per kg body wt and that in the V-A mode about 8.5 mg/min per kg body wt. The apparent rates for [14C]lactate (rate of irreversible disposal) were 8 mg/min per kg body wt for the A-VC mode and 5.5 mg/min per kg body wt for the V-A mode. Apparent recycling of lactate C was 55-60% according to the A-VC mode and 35% according to the V-A mode. The specific radioactivities of [U-14C]glucose at isotopic steady state were 55 and 45% of [U-14C]lactate in the A-VC and V-A modes, respectively. Correcting for the dilution of 14C in gluconeogenesis via oxaloacetate, over 70% of newly synthesized glucose was calculated to be derived from circulating lactate. Recycling of 3H between lactate and glucose was evaluated. It has no significant effect on the calculation of the replacement rate, but affects considerably the areas under the wash-out curves for both [2-3H]- and [3-3H]-lactate, and calculation of mean transit time and total lactate mass in the body. Corrected for recycling, in the A-VC mode the mean transit time is about 3 min, the lactate mass about 50 mg/kg body wt and the lactate space about 65% of body space. The V-A mode yields a mass and lactate space about 1/2 those with the A-VC mode. The area under the wash-out curve for [14C]lactate is 20-30 times that for [3H]lactate, and apparent C mass is 400-500 mg/kg body wt and presumably includes the C of glucose, pyruvate and amino acids, which are exchanging rapidly with that of lactate.
