HFs express key enzymes of gluconeogenesis. ORS-KC and HFs engage in gluconeogenesis and glycogen shunt. Immunofluorescence staining of anagen and catagen HFs for MCT1 (a), LDHB (b), PCK1 (c) and G6Pase (d). Scale bar 100 μm, representative images of 9 images from 3 individuals. (e) Glycogen in ORS-KC with 5 and 10 mM lactate Mean ±SEM. Paired two-tailed t-test, * p < 0.05. (f) Western Blot of GYS1, PCK1, G6Pase, G6PD, LDHB and LDHA in ORS-KC; after 4 and 24 h in 5- and 10-mM lactate. control GAPDH, arrows representing cropped images, representative N = 3 experiments.
