Lactate dehydrogenase is better known as lactic acid dehydrogenase. It is also abbreviated as LDH. If there is anything else it is called you can search for it on a medical website.

How can cells produce ATP without oxygen?

This question refers to anaerobic respiration. It is specifically known as the Cori, or lactic acid cycle which produces ATP between the muscle and liver.


Why does lactate accumulate in the blood during bursts of very vigorous exercise?

Lactate accumulates because of the lack of available oxygen in the muscles. In anaerobic conditions, the pyruvate produced by glycolysis is reduced to lactate via lactate dehydrogenase (while also oxidizing a single molecule of NADH to regenerate NAD+). NAD+ is a very important molecule and must readily be available in the cytoplasm in order for glycolysis to proceed.
