Enzymological determination of free carnitine concentrations in rat tissues

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1964
Purified carnitine acetyltransferase was employed to catalyze the reaction:Carnitine+acetylCoA⇌acetylcarnitine+CoA. In the presence of a known excess of acetyl CoA, free CoA released was determined simultaneously in a coupled spectrophotometric assay ...

Correlation of Serum Free Carnitine with Serum Ferritin and Vitamin C Levels in Type II Diabetic Men.

open access: greenIranian Journal of Public Health, 2013
Diabetes is a major health problem worldwide. Type II diabetic patients are reported to have higher ferritin and lower vitamin C concentrations. Considering the role of ascorbic acid in carnitine biosynthesis and the limited information on free carnitine

The Effects of Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes and Insulin Treatment on Carnitine Biosynthesis and Renal Excretion

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Carnitine insufficiency is reported in type 1 diabetes mellitus. To determine whether this is accompanied by defects in biosynthesis and/or renal uptake, liver and kidney were obtained from male Sprague-Dawley rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes ...

Levels of L-carnitine in human seminal plasma are associated with sperm fatty acid composition

open access: yesAsian Journal of Andrology, 2022
The fatty acid composition of spermatozoa has been shown to be important for their function, and L-carnitine is crucial for fatty acid metabolism. Its levels in the seminal plasma positively correlate with semen quality, whereas high body mass index (BMI)

Newborn Screening and Genetic Analysis Identify Six Novel Genetic Variants for Primary Carnitine Deficiency in Ningbo Area, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Primary carnitine deficiency (PCD) is an autosomal recessive disorder that could result in sudden death. It is caused by a defect in the carnitine transporter encoded by SLC22A5 (Solute Carrier Family 22 Member 5, MIM:603377).

Medium-chain fatty acid oxidation is independent of l-carnitine in liver and kidney but not in heart and skeletal muscle

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology - Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology, 2023
Medium-chain fatty acid (MCFA) consumption confers a wide range of health benefits that are highly distinct from long-chain fatty acids (LCFA). A major difference between the metabolism of LCFAs compared to MCFAs is that mitochondrial LCFA oxidation ...
