carnitine and Parkinson Disease

carnitine has been researched along with Parkinson Disease in 11 studies

Parkinson Disease: A progressive, degenerative neurologic disease characterized by a TREMOR that is maximal at rest, retropulsion (i.e. a tendency to fall backwards), rigidity, stooped posture, slowness of voluntary movements, and a masklike facial expression. Pathologic features include loss of melanin containing neurons in the substantia nigra and other pigmented nuclei of the brainstem. LEWY BODIES are present in the substantia nigra and locus coeruleus but may also be found in a related condition (LEWY BODY DISEASE, DIFFUSE) characterized by dementia in combination with varying degrees of parkinsonism. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1059, pp1067-75)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"It is thought that Parkinson's disease is caused by the accumulation of abnormally folded alpha-synuclein protein, accompanied by persistent neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and subsequent neuronal injury/death."1.48l-Carnitine Inhibits Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Nitric Oxide Production of SIM-A9 Microglia Cells. ( Garrett, TJ; Gill, EL; Raman, S; Vedam-Mai, V; Yost, RA, 2018)
"The plasma analyses identified 18 Parkinson's disease-specific metabolites and revealed decreased levels of seven long-chain acylcarnitines in two Parkinson's disease cohorts (n = 109, 145) compared with controls (n = 32, 45), respectively."1.46Decreased long-chain acylcarnitines from insufficient β-oxidation as potential early diagnostic markers for Parkinson's disease. ( Amo, T; Fujimaki, M; Fukuhara, T; Furuya, N; Hatano, T; Hattori, N; Imamichi, Y; Ishikawa, KI; Koinuma, T; Mori, A; Nagumo, M; Nojiri, S; Oji, Y; Okuzumi, A; Saiki, S; Yamashiro, K, 2017)
"Two groups of 10 patients with Parkinson's disease received doses of either 1g acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC) per day for seven days or 2g."1.28Clinical pharmacodynamics of acetyl-L-carnitine in patients with Parkinson's disease. ( Brancasi, B; D'Ursi, R; Genco, S; Martino, R; Miccoli, A; Prudenzano, A; Puca, FM; Savarese, M; Scarcia, R; Specchio, LM, 1990)
