Rat heart slices show a permeability barrier that can be crossed by carnitine but not by sucrose and inulin. The integrity of thiol groups of heart cell membrane is essential for the uptake of carnitine. N-ethylmaleimide inhibits the transport into heart slices which is insensitive to Mersalyl. On the contrary both N-ethylmaleimide and Mersalyl inhibit acetyl carnitine/carnitine exchange. The amount of thiol groups titrated by the above reagents are related to the extent of exchange inhibition.
