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 ...
