BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral ischemic insults disrupt normal respiratory activity in mitochondria. Carnitine plays an essential role in mitochondrial metabolism and in modulating excess acyl-coenzyme A (acyl-CoA) levels. The effects of cerebral ischemia on carnitine metabolism are not well understood, although the newborn may be particularly vulnerable to carnitine deficiency. We used a newb...
Rats with systemic carnitine deficiency induced by treatment with trimethylhydraziniumpropionate (THP) develop liver steatosis. This study aims to investigate the mechanisms leading to steatosis in THP-induced carnitine deficiency. Rats were treated with THP (20 mg/100 g) for 3 or 6 weeks and were studied after starvation for 24 h. Rats treated with THP had reduced in vivo palmitate metabolism ...
PURPOSE The effects of carnitine depletion upon exercise performance and skeletal muscle mitochondrial function remain largely unexplored. We therefore investigated the effect of N-trimethyl-hydrazine-3-propionate (THP), a carnitine analog inhibiting carnitine biosynthesis and renal carnitine reabsorption, on physical performance and skeletal muscle mitochondrial function in rats. METHODS Mal...
Carnitine is essential for the transfer of long-chain fatty acids from the cytosol into mitochondria for subsequent β-oxidation. A lack of carnitine results in impaired energy production from long-chain fatty acids, especially during periods of fasting or stress. Primary carnitine deficiency (PCD) is an autosomal recessive disorder of mitochondrial β-oxidation resulting from defective carnitine...
BACKGROUND The conditionally essential nutrient, L-carnitine, plays a critical role in a number of physiological processes vital to normal neonatal growth and development. We conducted a systematic evaluation of the developmental changes in key L-carnitine homeostasis mechanisms in the postnatal rat to better understand the interrelationship between these pathways and their correlation to ontog...
Carnitine/organic cation transporter 2 (OCTN2) recognizes various cationic compounds as substrates in vitro, but information on its pharmacokinetic role in vivo is quite limited. This paper demonstrates altered tissue distribution of the OCTN2 substrate pyrilamine in juvenile visceral steatosis (jvs) mice, which have a hereditary defect of the octn2 gene. At 30 min after intravenous injection o...
Carnitine deficiency has been demonstrated in diabetic hearts, and it is also well known that L-carnitine administration has a beneficial effect on cardiac function. Carnitine treatment would be expected to reduce the accumulation of long-chain acylcarnitine. However, many reports have shown that myocardial long-chain acylcarnitine levels were increased following treatment with L-carnitine in w...
Effect of starvation or ACTH injection on the urinary level and profile of L-carnitine and its derivatives was studied in four healthy adult men or in a normal child and two patients with myopathy, respectively. Mean total L-carnitine level in the control urine sample obtained before starvation was 389 +/- 34 mumol . man . day. The percentage distribution was found to be 46% for free-, 9% for a...
