Journal ArticleDOI

Arginine metabolism : nitric oxide and beyond

TL;DR: Physiological roles and relationships between the pathways of arginine synthesis and catabolism in vivo are complex and difficult to analyse, owing to compartmentalized expression of various enzymes at both organ and subcellular levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dysregulated arginine metabolism, hemolysis-associated pulmonary hypertension, and mortality in sickle cell disease.

TL;DR: These data support a novel mechanism of disease in which hemolysis contributes to reduced nitric oxide bioavailability and endothelial dysfunction via release of erythrocyte arginase, which limits arginine bioavailability, and release of ______ hemoglobin, which scavengesNitric oxide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of enzymes of the urea cycle and arginine metabolism

TL;DR: This review emphasizes recent information regarding roles and regulation of urea cycle and arginine metabolic enzymes in liver and other cell types.
Journal ArticleDOI

New insights into the regulation of inducible nitric oxide synthesis

TL;DR: The roles NO plays in sepsis and the potential impact of arginine metabolism on NO synthesis are discussed and the only physiological nitrogen donor for NO synthesis, metabolism of this amino acid may play an important role in regulation of NO synthesis during sepsi.
