Acetyl-L-carnitine is an orally active mitochondrial energy metabolism regulator and neuroprotectant capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier. It enters cells and the brain via the organic cation transporter OCTN2. This compound acts as an acetyl donor, participating in fatty acid β-oxidation, promoting acetylcholine synthesis, regulating mitochondrial function, and inhibiting oxidative stress. Its activity primarily involves enhancing energy metabolism, safeguarding neurons, and improving synaptic plasticity. It is widely utilized in research concerning neurodegenerative diseases and metabolic disorders such as neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain damage, Alzheimer's disease, and depression.
