Description

Application

Palmitoyl-DL-carnitine chloride has been used to study its effect on inflammatory cytokines and calcium (Ca²⁺) influx, using in vitro models of prostate cancer.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Palmitoyl-DL-carnitine chloride is known to inhibit biofilm formation mediated by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. It is a phosphokinase C inhibitor.

Long-chain acylcarnitine and well-known intermediate in mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation. Modifies myocardial levels of high-energy phosphates and free fatty acids in the heart. Increases erythroid colony formation in culture. Reduces surface negative charge of erythrocytes and myocytes. Reported to affect currents and inhibit endothelium-dependent relaxation induced by acetylcholine and substance P in a dose dependent manner by suppressing the intracellular calcium signal transduction in endothelial cells.
