A R T I C L E I N F O A B S T R A C T Aims Article Type New medications with less side-effect are increasingly noticed now a day. L-Carnitine and Acetyl L-Carnitine reduce the secondary side-effects of Type I diabetes. The aim of this Original Research Authors Materialsstudy was & to Methods investigate the effects of oral administration of the materials on the blood PhD, glucose and the lipid per-oxidation of the liver and brain tissues in the diabetic rats. 1 DVM, In the experimental study, 50 male Wistar rats were studied. The rats 1 Hajinezhad M.R.*DVM, were randomly divided into five groups including control (the healthy rats), negative control Hajian Sh. 2 PhD, Saghayei S.3 PhD (the diabetic rats), and three treatment diabetic groups. The diabetic groups received 110mg/ Samzadeh-Kermani A.R. Kg alloxan via injection to become diabetic. The treatment groups received L-Carnitine, Acetyl Nabavi R. L-Carnetine, and L-Carnetine with Acetyl L-Carnetine (300mg/Kg) as gavage for 30 days. The How to cite this article lipid per-oxidation, the serum glucose, the lipid profile, and the liver enzymes were measured Findingsat the end of the experiment. Data was analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey Hajinezhad M.R, Hajian Sh, complementary test. Saghayei S, Samzadeh-Kermani The fasting blood concentration, triglyceride, cholesterol, creatinine, the serum A.R, Nabavi R. Comparison the liver enzymes, and the level of the liver tissue malondialdehyde significantly decreased Protective Effects of L-Carnitine in treatment diabetic group than diabetic group without any treatment, while HDL level and Acetyl L-Carnitine on Blood Glucose and Lipid Peroxidation increased as well (p<0.05). The brain tissue malondialdehyde and the serum HDL decreased Level in Diabetic Rats. Quarterly and increased due to the administration of Acetyl L-Carnitine, respectively. Nevertheless, it of the Horizon of Medical Sciences. Conclusionaffected no other parameter significantly. The positive effects of L-Carnitine were reduced by 2016;22(3):229-235. the administration of Acetyl L-Carnitin with L-Carnitine. The administration of L-Carnitine further reduces the secondary side-effects of diabetes than Acetyl L-Carnitine. In addition, simultaneous administration of the materials isKeywords not recommended.
