l-Carnitine and Acetyl-l-carnitine Roles and Neuroprotection in Developing Brain [PDF]
Neurochemical Research, 2017 L-Carnitine functions to transport long chain fatty acyl-CoAs into the mitochondria for degradation by β-oxidation. Treatment with L-carnitine can ameliorate metabolic imbalances in many inborn errors of metabolism. In recent years there has been considerable interest in the therapeutic potential of L-carnitine and its acetylated derivative acetyl-L ...

l-carnitine in critically ill patients—a case series study
Renal Replacement Therapy, 2018 Background l-carnitine is essential for lipid metabolism, and lack of l-carnitine intake and loss by treatments lead to carnitine depletion causing muscle weakness, anemia, and immune dysfunction.

L-CARNITINE SUPPLEMENTATION FOR AGE-INDUCED REPRODUCTIVE CRITERIA IN MALE PIGEONS [PDF]
Journal of Animal and Poultry Production, 2007 The objective of this study is showing the effect of bird’s age on semen quality, semen collection, seminal plasma characteristics and testicular histology on pigeon males, and the potential effect of L-carnitine supplementation on these traits.

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Increased liver content of DHA‐derived small lipid autacoids (i.e resolvin D1 and maresin 1) associates with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid β‐oxidation and bioenergetic metabolic flux. These features provide hepatic protection from steatotic, pro‐inflammatory and fibrogenic insults.

L-Carnitine and Acetyl-L-Carnitine: Potential Novel Biomarkers for Major Depressive Disorder [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2020 The lack of biomarkers greatly limits the diagnosis and treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). Endogenous L-carnitine (LC) and its derivative acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC) play antidepressant roles by improving brain energy metabolism, regulating neurotransmitters and neural plasticity.

Acetyl-l-carnitine for dementia [PDF]
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2003 Dementia is a common mental health problem affecting 5% of those over 65. Various pathological processes are linked to memory impairment in dementia, particularly those affecting the cholinergic neurotransmitter system. Acetyl-l-carnitine (ALC) is derived from carnitine and is described as having several properties which may be beneficial in dementia ...
