| Targets |
Levocarnitine propionate hydrochloride does not have a specific receptor target. It functions as a carrier of fatty acids into the mitochondria, facilitating their oxidation for energy production. It may also have antioxidant properties and improve endothelial function.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Levocarnitine propionate is a derivative of L-carnitine. It facilitates the transport of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondrial matrix for β-oxidation, thereby playing a key role in energy metabolism. It has been shown to improve exercise performance and reduce symptoms of peripheral arterial disease.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Levocarnitine propionate has been investigated for the treatment of peripheral arterial disease and other cardiovascular conditions. It has been shown to improve walking distance in patients with intermittent claudication. Its effects are attributed to improved fatty acid metabolism and energy production.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro assays for Levocarnitine propionate hydrochloride are not typically performed, as it is a metabolic agent rather than a drug targeting a specific enzyme or receptor. Its role in fatty acid oxidation can be studied in isolated mitochondria or in cell culture by measuring fatty acid oxidation rates.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.20 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.20 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
