Disease relevance of arginine

At 0, 1, 2, and 3 hr after each exercise bout, the subjects ingested either a carbohydrate (CHO) supplement (1 g carbohydrate/kg body weight) or a carbohydrate-arginine (CHO/AA) supplement (1 g carbohydrate/kg body mass and 0.08 g arginine-hydrochloride/kg body weight) [1].
Studies on therapy of metabolic alkalosis during experimental uremia. Influences of arginine-hydrochloride on the intra- and extracellular acid-base status of the rat [2].

High impact information on arginine

Distinctive gel shift bands are generated by rat nuclear extracts from mature testis, kidney, brain, spleen and liver, which bind to the cis-acting SRE (Serum response element) and Prot1C (Protamine 1 Consensus) oligonucleotide sequences [Queralt R. and Oliva R. Gene. 133 (1993) 197-204] [3].
L-arginine (CAS 1119-34-2), a NO precursor, displayed a triphasic pattern as antinociception-nociception-antinociception (61.8 +/- 7.8, -36.5 +/- 12.7 and 17.0 +/- 4.3%, 5, 40 and 50 mg/kg, s.c., respectively) [4].
