Cori cycle. The Cori cycle (also known as the lactic acid cycle), named after its discoverers, Carl Ferdinand Cori and Gerty Cori, [1] is a metabolic pathway in which lactate, produced by anaerobic glycolysis in muscles, is transported to the liver and converted to glucose, which then returns to the muscles and is cyclically metabolized back to lactate.
[1] Anaerobic glycolysis is thought to have been the primary means of energy production in earlier organisms before oxygen was at high concentration in the atmosphere and thus would represent a more ancient form of energy production in cells. In mammals, lactate can be transformed by the liver back into glucose using the Cori cycle.

Moreover, they discovered the Cori cycle, also known as the Lactic acid cycle, [47] which describes how muscle tissue converts glycogen into lactic acid via lactic acid fermentation.

Carl Ferdinand Cori, ForMemRS [1] (December 5, 1896 – October 20, 1984) was a Czech-American biochemist and pharmacologist. He, together with his wife Gerty Cori and Argentine physiologist Bernardo Houssay , received a Nobel Prize in 1947 for their discovery of how the glucose derivative glycogen (animal starch) is broken down and ...
