Carnitine metabolism in human subjects. III. Metabolism in disease
1978
Mitchell, Madeleine E.
Extract: Carnitine metabolism is reviewed in lipid storage myopathies, diabetes, vomiting sickness of Jamaica, malnutrition, hyperthyroidism, Duchenne dystrophy, and a few other disease states. Cases establish that for some patients, carnitine cannot be synthesized or utilized properly in the body. Carnitine metabolism should be evaluated in patients with malnutrition, especially where diets are predominantly of plant food sources.
