In 7 children with single episodes of Reye's syndrome serum (n=4), muscle (n=3) and liver (n=1) free carnitine levels were normal except for one slightly low serem level. Systemic carnitine deficiency may mimic "Reye's syndrome"; the episodes, some initiated by fasting, may be prevent...

Do you have low ferritin, a selenium or zinc deficiency, or gene variations in your deiodinase genes that may prevent you from properly converting T4 to T3? Overview of Thyroid Hormone Medication Options Medication options to balance thyroid hormones include: ...
L-carnitine (LC) is integral to mitochondrial function and is considered protective for brain tissue [20]. Studies have shown L-carnitine deficiency leads to reduced responsiveness to drug treatments for all headache types [21]. The role of L-carnitine in preventing and controlling many ...
Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus are global emergencies and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are regulatory transcripts with elusive functions in metabolism. Here we show that a high fraction of lncRNAs, but not protein-coding mRNAs, are repressed during diet-induced obesity (DIO) and refeeding,...
However, pellagra is the dramatic manifestation of a very severe dietary deficiency of NAD+ precursors. In recent years, several lines of evidence have highlighted how more modest decreases in NAD+ levels can predispose mammalian organisms to the development of metabolic complications. For example, ...
We used such an idea, trying to explain the role of cationic group of carnitine in the transport of fatty acid residues into mitochondria [27], [28]. On being electrophoretically concentrated in the inner leaflet of the inner mitochondrial membrane, fatty acyl and carnitine would be able to ...
