Its main function is to transport long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria, where they are oxidized to produce energy ( Pharmacol Res

Carnitine synthesis requires gamma-butyl betaine hydroxylase, and premature infants have a limited capacity to synthesize L-carnitine themselves, having only 1215% of the synthesis ability of adults ( 3.2 L-carnitine levels in preterm infants Due to the large transfer of maternal L-carnitine to the fetus in the third trimester and the immature mechanism of carnitine transport in premature infants, the blood level of l-carnitine in premature infants after 3 to 7 days is slightly higher than that in full-term infants ( Consequently, despite the potential for higher initial blood levels, the inherent physiological immaturity and reduced somatic mass associated with preterm birth mean that these infants have significantly diminished endogenous L-carnitine reserves
