Acetyl-L-carnitine was successfully applied as pharmacological agents for treatment of chronic degenerative diseases of the senile brain and for slowing down the progression of mental deterioration in Alzheimer's disease, and they may involve both the cholinergic neuronal transmission activity of acetyl-L-carnitine and its ability to enhance neuronal metabolism in mitochondria.

During blood vessel injury, the relative ratios of TXA2 and PGI2 are controlled by COX enzymes to balance the opposing actions of clotting and blood flow
Transport of long-chain fatty acids Carnitine facilitates transport of long-chain fatty acids from the cytosol compartment of the muscle fibre into the mitochondria, where they undergo -oxidation and produce acetyl-CoA, which enters the Krebs cycle [27]
It also helps reduce muscle soreness post-exercise and is associated with improved exercise performance
