Lac-Phe is increased heavily with exercise in mammals and acts to reduce food intake and potentially decrease overall body weight and fat mass. In diet-induced obese mice, pharmacological administration of Lac-Phe led to decreased food intake, adiposity and body weight, as well as improved glucose homeostasis, while movement and energy expenditure were not affected. The biosynthesis of Lac-Phe from lactate and phenylalanine occurs in CNDP2 cells, including macrophages, monocytes and other immune and epithelial cells.
