Notes: Eicosapentaenoyl-L-carnitine is a long-chain acylcarnitine composed of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; Item Nos. 90110 / 90110.1 / 21908) and L-carnitine (Item No. 21489).{67500} The levels of eicosapentaenoyl-L-carnitine are increased in the eyes of mice fed a diet high in n-3/n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), but not in mice fed normal diet, in a mouse model of myopia induced by out-of-focus lenses.
