Biochemical, Molecular, and Clinical Characterization of Patients With Primary Carnitine Deficiency via Large-Scale Newborn Screening in Xuzhou Area [PDF]
Background: Primary carnitine deficiency (PCD) is attributed to a variation in the SLC22A5 (OCTN2) gene which encodes the key protein of the carnitine cycle, the OCTN2 carnitine transporter.

Deficient Muscle Carnitine Transport in Primary Carnitine Deficiency [PDF]
Primary carnitine deficiency is associated with deficient blood and tissue carnitine concentrations. The clinical syndrome is dominated by heart and skeletal muscle symptoms, and the clinical response to oral carnitine supplementation is life-saving. Carnitine uptake has been shown to be defective in cultured skin fibroblasts and leukocytes obtained ...

Carnitine uptake defect (CUD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the SLC22A5 gene, resulting in primary carnitine transporter (OCTN2) deficiency and disturbed fatty acid oxidation. Patients may present in infancy with

Left ventricular noncompaction in primary systemic carnitine deficiency: A rare association
Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a rare phenotype of dilated cardiomyopathy. We report a child with primary systemic carnitine deficiency having associated LVNC.

Primary Carnitine (OCTN2) Deficiency Without Neonatal Carnitine Deficiency [PDF]
Although the diagnosis of a primary carnitine deficiency is usually based on a very low level of free and total carnitine (free carnitine: 1-5 μM, normal 20-55 μM) (Longo et al. 2006), we detected a patient via newborn screening with a total carnitine level 67 % of the normal value.
