carnitine and Multiple Sclerosis

carnitine has been researched along with Multiple Sclerosis in 9 studies

Multiple Sclerosis: An autoimmune disorder mainly affecting young adults and characterized by destruction of myelin in the central nervous system. Pathologic findings include multiple sharply demarcated areas of demyelination throughout the white matter of the central nervous system. Clinical manifestations include visual loss, extra-ocular movement disorders, paresthesias, loss of sensation, weakness, dysarthria, spasticity, ataxia, and bladder dysfunction. The usual pattern is one of recurrent attacks followed by partial recovery (see MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, RELAPSING-REMITTING), but acute fulminating and chronic progressive forms (see MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, CHRONIC PROGRESSIVE) also occur. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p903)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The serum concentrations of total, free and acylcarnitine were compared in 25 patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and among age- and sex-matched normal controls by the new enzymatic cycling method in order to clarify whether the fatigue in MS might be due to possible carnitine-related fatty acid metabolic abnormalities in the mitochondria of skeletal muscles."7.69Serum carnitine and disabling fatigue in multiple sclerosis. ( Fukazawa, T; Hamada, T; Kikuchi, S; Sasaki, H; Tashiro, K, 1996)
"Although frank symptomatic biotin deficiency is rare, some evidence suggests that marginal biotin deficiency occurs spontaneously in a substantial proportion of women during normal human pregnancy and might confer an increased risk of birth defects."4.95Biotin: From Nutrition to Therapeutics. ( Mock, DM, 2017)
" We included studies investigating pemoline and modafinil in participants with multiple sclerosis (MS)-associated fatigue and methylphenidate in patients suffering from advanced cancer and fatigue in meta-analysis."4.91Pharmacological treatments for fatigue associated with palliative care. ( Cuhls, H; Minton, O; Mücke, M; Peuckmann-Post, V; Radbruch, L; Stone, P, 2015)
