    We studied the effects of E. coli endotoxin on the glucose and lactate kinetics in dogs by means of the primed constant infusion of [6(-3)H] glucose and Na-L-(+)-[U-14C] lactate. The infusion of endotoxin induced a transient hyperglycemic level, followed by a steady fall in plasma glucose to hypoglycemic levels. The rate of appearance (Ra) and the rate of disappearance (Rd) of glucose were both significantly elevated (P less than .05) for 150 min after endotoxin, after which neither differed from the preinfusion value. The metabolic clearance rate of glucose was significantly elevated at all times 30 min postendotoxin. By 30 min postendotoxin, Ra and Rd of lactate, plasma lactate concentration, and the percent of glucose turnover originating from lactate were significantly elevated and remained so for the duration of the experiment. We concluded that after endotoxin hypoglycemia developed because of an enhanced peripheral uptake of glucose and a failure of the liver to maintain an increased Ra of glucose. We also concluded that lactate became an important precursor for gluconeogenesis and an important metabolic substrate.
