People who are vegetarians mainly rely on their endogenous production of carnitine.[ref] While the OCTN2 transporter is important in carnitine uptake, in some tissues, such as the lungs and intestines, carnitine can also be absorbed by passive diffusion.[ref][ref] The expression of the OCTN2 transporter is regulated by estrogen receptors and PPARs
