Carnitine Biosynthesis, Metabolism, and Functions contains the proceedings of the Virginia Lazenby O'Hara Biochemistry Symposium held in Dallas, Texas, from March 31 to April 1, 1979. The papers explore all aspects of carnitine metabolism, including its biosynthesis, regulation, transport, and functions. Comprised of 24 chapters divided into four sections, this book opens with a brief review of the situation which led to the discovery of carnitine as a vitamin and its role in acetylation. The discussion then turns to the chemistry and biosynthesis of carnitine in Neurospora crassa, rat kidney, and humans. The purification of enzymes involved in the conversion of trimethyllysine to trimethylaminobutyrate is also considered. The following chapters examine carnitine transport across the plasma membrane; formation and utilization of isobutyrylcarnitine; regulation of blood carnitine and carnitine acyltransferases in the perinatal period; and inhibitors of carnitine transport and metabolism. The final section is devoted to medical and clinical aspects of carnitine, touching on topics such as the possible causes and effects of carnitine deficiency in humans; carnitine deficiency in cirrhosis; protective effects of L-carnitine on ischemic heart; and changes in carnitine-linked metabolism during ischemia, thermal injury, and shock. This monograph will be a useful resource for biochemists and those interested in the physiological roles of carnitine.

Abstract: The proceedings of a 1985 international symposium for food scientists, clinicians, and nutritionists reviews the current status of research in the carnitine field and the current status of medical care of patients who may benefit from treatment with exogenous carnitine. The text includes 15 detailed reviews grouped among 5 major areas, with numerous abstracts of poster presentations appended to each of these 5 areas. The 5 areas include: carnitine metabolism and function in normal subjects; assay methods for carnitine, carnitine-biosynthetic enzymes, and enzymes that utilize carnitine as a substrate; human carnitine deficiency; deficiencies of enzymes that use carnitine as a substrate; and situations in which carnitine deficiency is secondary to chronic disease states. The use of carnitine supplementation also is discussed. Five workshop summaries concerning the analysis, deficiency diagnosis, and supplementation of carnitine are appended.

The physiological or psychological stresses that employees bring to their workplace affect not only their own performance but that of their co-workers and others. These stresses are often compounded by those of the job itself. Medical personnel, firefighters, police, and military personnel in combat settingsâ€"among othersâ€"experience highly unpredictable timing and types of stressors. This book reviews and comments on the performance-enhancing potential of specific food components. It reflects the views of military and non-military scientists from such fields as neuroscience, nutrition, physiology, various medical specialties, and performance psychology on the most up-to-date research available on physical and mental performance enhancement in stressful conditions. Although placed within the context of military tasks, the volume will have wide-reaching implications for individuals in any job setting.

A little-known protein building block, L-carnitine, is an important ingredient in overall good health. It helps burn carbohydrates and fat, helps control the level of brain transmitters, and helps stave off the destruction caused by free radicals. This supernutrient can play an important role in improving sports performance, maintaining body weight balance, and supports immune function and heart health

Interest in carnitine and its potential health benefits has surged over the last decade. Carnitine serves a number of biological roles, such as stimulating the oxidation of fat and preventing the accumulation of lactic acid. It is also used as a supplement for weight loss and performance enhancement. This book discusses the functions carnitine fulfills in human biology, with specific emphasis on its roles in skeletal muscle metabolism. It covers carnitine homeostasis and transport, the renal handling of carnitine, and applications of carnitine in human nutrition.

During the past decade, it has become increasingly evident that L-carnitine is intimately involved in many different aspects of medicine. The precise nature of this involvement is the subject of ongoing studies being conducted in clinics and laboratories world wide. The purpose of this book is to provide an introductory overview of the metabolism of carnitine and its role in medicine as it is understood today. Any advances in our understanding to be made in the future might then be better placed in context. The first comprehensive review of the function and therapeutic uses of L-carnitine, the book includes three sections covering a general introduction to the basic aspects of carnitine metabolism, and the involvement of carnitine in the clinical aspects of pediatric medicine and of adult medicine.
