...Sergio Polakof; José L. Soengas SUMMARY The aim of this study was to obtain evidence in rainbow trout for a role of lactate in glucose homeostasis as well as in the function of glucosensing tissues. In a first set of experiments, trout were injected, either (1)intraperitoneally ( N =8) with 5 ml...
