Tetradecanoylcarnitine is an acylcarnitine involved in mitochondrial beta-oxidation of long-chain saturated fatty acids and fatty acid metabolism. Tetradecanoylcarnitine serves as a biomarker for very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency and MPTP (HY-15608)-induced Parkinsons disease. Tetradecanoylcarnitine exhibits a characteristic significant elevation in plasma levels in patients with sarcopenia, including those complicated with hypertension, and this elevation is closely associated with an increased risk of death. Tetradecanoylcarnitine is widely used in research on the pathological mechanisms of diseases such as Parkinsons disease and sarcopenia[1][2].
