The Pharmacodynamics of L - Arginine 1 – 3
L-Arginine is a precursor for nitric oxide (NO) synthesis. NO is a ubiquitous mediator that is formed by a family of enzymes named NO synthases. In the brain, NO acts as a neurotransmitter; in the immune system, NO acts as a mediator of host defense; and in the cardiovascular system, NO mediates the protective effects of the intact endothelium, acting as a vasodilator and endogenous antiatherog...

Acute pulmonary oedema has been described in individuals participating in Abstract three aquatic activities: (i) scuba diving; (ii) breath-hold diving; and (iii) endurance swimming. In this review, 60 published cases have been compiled for comparison. Variables considered included: age; past medical history; activity; water depth, type (salt or fresh) and temperature; clinical presentation; inv...
متن کاملAquaporin-3 in Cancer
Increasing evidence suggests that the water/glycerol channel aquaporin-3 (AQP3) plays a pivotal role in cancer metastasis. AQP3 knockout mice were resistant to skin tumor formation and overexpression correlated with metastasis and poor prognosis in patients with breast or gastric cancer. In cultured cancer cells, increased AQP3 expression stimulated several intracellular signaling pathways and ...
متن کاملL-Arginine Monograph
Introduction L-Arginine is a semi-essential amino acid involved in numerous areas of human physiology, including production of nitric oxide (NO) – a key messenger molecule involved in vascular regulation, immune activity, and endocrine function. Arginine is also involved in protein production, wound healing, erectile function, and fertility. Arginine is not considered essential because humans c...
متن کاملL-Arginine Metabolic Pathways
The present review will give an overview of the biochemistry and metabolism of L-arginine focusing on the mechanisms which may either provide or limit cellular availability of this amino acid for nitric oxide synthases and arginase / polyamine pathway and describe possible interactions between these pathways. In addition, emerging species differences in the expression and role of arginases are ...
