“ Carnitine (10-50 microM) was able to dose dependently inhibit arachidonic acid incorporation into platelet phospholipids and agonist-induced arachidonic acid release.”
“This study shows that carnitine inhibits arachidonic acid accumulation into platelet phospholipids and in turn platelet function and arachidonic acid release elicited by platelet agonists.”
“A significant (23%) reduction in heart mitochondrial cardiolipin content from 30 month old Fischer rats suggests that this phospholipid may also contribute to the lower rates of carnitine and acylcarnitine transport across the mitochondrial inner membrane.”
