“Furthermore, L-carnitine administration counteracts the effect of DHEA on mitochondrial structure.”
“The possibility thus exist that during DHEA treatment the concentration of L-carnitine may become a limiting factor for fatty acids oxidation and therefore responsible of some of the effects observed after administration of the hormone.”
“The results show that the increase in the levels of peroxisomal enzymes induced in hepatocytes by DHEA , is greatly reduced by parallel administration of L-carnitine.”
