9059510 Chiu KM, Schmidt MJ, Shug AL, Binkley N, Gravenstein S: Effect of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate on carnitine acetyl transferase activity and L-carnitine levels in oophorectomized rats. Biochim Biophys Acta. 1997 Feb 18;1344(3):201-9.


The purpose of this study was to determine whether dietary supplementation with DHEAS would also increase tissue L-carnitine levels, carnitine acetyltransferase (CAT) activity and mitochondrial respiration in oophorectomized rats.

The expression of CAT1, CAT3, y+ LAT1 and y+ LAT2 mRNAs supports the presence of each system.
Short term exposure to the oxidizing agents, rotenone and Angeli's salt, but not FeSO4, increases arginine transport.
