The effects of GABA, its quaternary derivative N-trimethyl GABA and quinidine have been studied in a model of ventricular automaticity induced in the isolated right ventricle of the rat. GABA shows low anti-automatic activity. N-trimethyl GABA and quinidine were, however

Carnitine is indispensable for energy metabolism, since it enables activated fatty acids to enter the mitochondria, where they are broken down via beta-oxidation. Carnitine is probably present in all animal species, and in numerous micro-organisms and plants. In mammals, carnitine
L M Henderson et al.
Federation proceedings, 41(12), 2843-2847 (1982-10-01)
The biosynthesis of carnitine proceeds from trimethyllysine (TML) by beta-hydroxylation by a liver or kidney mitochondrial enzyme, which requires oxygen, alpha-ketoglutarate, ferrous iron, and ascorbate. This dioxygenase is rapidly inactivated by preincubation with Fe2+, but not Fe3+. The evidence suggests
P J Nelson et al.
Biochimica et biophysica acta, 672(1), 123-127 (1981-01-07)
The effects of ascorbate deficiency on carnitine biosynthesis was investigated in young male guinea pigs. Liver and kidney carnitine levels were not affected by the deficiency, but scorbutic animals had 50% less carnitine in heart and skeletal muscle than control
C J Gross et al.
Biochimica et biophysica acta, 886(3), 425-433 (1986-05-29)
Uptake and metabolism of L-carnitine, D-carnitine and acetyl-L-carnitine were studied utilizing isolated guinea-pig enterocytes. Uptake of the D- and L-isomers of carnitine was temperature dependent. Uptake of L-[14C]carnitine by jejunal cells was sodium dependent since replacement by lithium, potassium or
