pubmed:abstractText |
The effectiveness of propionyl-L-carnitine (PLC) monotherapy regimen alone or in association with pulsed muscular compression was compared to the physical therapy by itself against obliterant arteriopathy Leriche Fontaine stage II. PLC is involved in cellular metabolism and is transformed into two active substances, free L-carnitine and propionyl-coenzyme A in the mitochondria, which take part in fatty acid transfer and in the citric acid cycle, respectively.
