What is LC500 L-Carnitine?
LC500 is a pharmaceutical-grade L-Carnitine injectable at 500mg/ml concentration, representing one of the highest available therapeutic doses. L-Carnitine (β-hydroxy-γ-trimethylaminobutyric acid) is a quaternary ammonium compound synthesized endogenously from lysine and methionine, primarily in the liver and kidneys. Its fundamental role is transporting long-chain fatty acids (C14-C20) across the inner mitochondrial membrane via the carnitine shuttle system, where they undergo β-oxidation for ATP production. Carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT-I) catalyzes the rate-limiting step of this process. L-Carnitine also participates in buffering excess acetyl-CoA, modulating the acyl-CoA/CoA ratio, and influencing glucose metabolism through competing substrate oxidation pathways (Randle cycle). This high-concentration formulation is valuable for research into carnitine deficiency states, mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation disorders, exercise metabolism, cardiac energy metabolism, male infertility (sperm motility), and cognitive function related to acetylcholine synthesis.
