Current Concepts in Carnitine Research is based on the proceedings of a symposium on carnitine research presented by the School of Medicine, Medical College of Georgia, April 20-21, 1991. The book is intended to introduce areas of carnitine research and explore key clinical and basic aspects of carnitine metabolism. The four major topics covered are carnitine and the heart; the structure, function, and regulation of carnitine palmitoyl transferase; functions of the short chain carnitine acyltransferase; and areas of carnitine research. This information is essential for physicians and biochemists studying intermediate metabolism, nutritionists involved in dietary nanuplication, and cardiology researchers, especially those studying cardiomyopathy.

In the last few years, derivatives of L-carnitine, such as acetyl-L-carnitine and propionyl-L-carnitine, have been made available to doctors for treatment of specific pathologies. The effects of this family of related carnitine compounds on cardiovascular systems and diseases constitute the major issue addressed in this volume. Although several books on carnitine have been published, a treatise focusing on experimental and clinical aspects of the carnitine family and cardiovascular diseases was lacking. The present book provides the reader with a concise update in this field. The information collected from experts on various aspects of the fascinating compound, carnitine, will be useful for both clinicians and basic scientists.

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.
