As more is learned about lactate, it acts as both a product and substrate functions shuttle system between different cell populations to provide the energy for sustaining tumor growth proliferation. Recent discoveries of protein lactylation modification mediated by lactate play an increasingly significant role in human health (e.g., neural osteogenic differentiation maturation) diseases tumors, fibrosis inflammation, etc.). These views are critically first described detail this review. Hence, here, we focused on new target, lactylation, which may be "double-edged sword" diseases. The main purpose review was describe how multiple physiological pathological processes their potential mechanisms through in-depth summary preclinical vitro vivo studies. Our work aims ideas treating accelerate translation from bench bedside.

ABSTRACT In recent years, a significant breakthrough has emerged in biology, the identification of lactylation, novel post‐translational process. This intriguing modification is not limited to specific class proteins but occurs across diverse range, including histones, signalling molecules, enzymes, and substrates. It can exert broad regulatory role various diseases, ranging from developmental anomalies neurodegenerative disorders inflammation cancer. Thus, it presents exciting opportunities for exploring innovative treatment approaches. As result, there been surge research interest, leading deeper understanding molecular mechanisms functions underlying lactylation within physiological pathological processes. Here, we review detection biological disease effects, providing systematic overview this modification.

Lactate is an indispensable substance in various cellular physiological functions and plays regulatory roles different aspects of energy metabolism signal transduction. Lactylation (Kla), a key pathway through which lactate exerts its functions, has been identified as novel posttranslational modification (PTM). Research indicates that Kla essential balancing mechanism variety organisms involved many biological processes pathways. closely related to disease development represents potential important new drug target. In line with existing reports, we searched for newly discovered sites on histone nonhistone proteins; reviewed the mechanisms (particularly focusing enzymes directly reversible regulation Kla, including "writers" (modifying enzymes), "readers" (modification-binding "erasers" (demodifying enzymes); summarized crosstalk between PTMs help researchers better understand widespread distribution diverse functions.
