Corn Agmatine Iminohydrolase [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1981 Agmatine iminohydrolase (EC 3.5.3.12) was purified 7,300-fold from extracts of corn shoots by chromatographic separations on diethylaminoethyl-cellulose, Sephadex G-100, and agmatine-affinity column. The enzyme was homogeneous by the criteria of analytical gel electrophoresis. Molecular weight estimated by Bio-Gel P-200 was 85,000, and the enzyme seems

Subcutaneous Toxicity of Agmatine in Rats
Turkish Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2017 The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of repetitive agmatine administration on sensorimotor gating in rats first but, as unexpected, ulcerative necrotic cutaneous lesions appeared, thus, the study was directed primarily to clarify these results.In the first set of experiments, we administered agmatine (40, 80 and 160 mg/kg) and saline ...

A Sensitive Quantification of Agmatine Using a Hybrid Electrode Based on Zinc oxide Nanoparticles
Journal of the Turkish Chemical Society, Section A: Chemistry, 2018 An electrochemical sensor was prepared by modifiying a hybrid of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) to a glassy carbon (GC) electrode surface to accurately determine agmatine.

Focused Review: Agmatine in Fermented Foods [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 Polyamines (PAs) are ubiquitous substances considered to be bioregulators of numerous cell functions; they take part in cell growth, division, and differentiation. These biogenic amines are also involved in tissue repair and in intracellular signaling; in fact, because of their polycationic character, they interact to a large extent with membrane ...

Agmatine: A Novel Neurotransmitter?
, 1997 Current evidence is consistent with an hypothesis that agmatine meets many criteria for a neurotransmitter-neuromodulator. It is synthesized, stored, and released in brain; is contained in neurons and axon terminals with a heterogeneous distribution; interacts with cell-specific receptors; and elicits biological actions within the central nervous ...

Agmatine requires GluN2B-containing NMDA receptors to inhibit the development of neuropathic pain
Molecular Pain, 2021 A decarboxylated form of L-arginine, agmatine, preferentially antagonizes NMDArs containing Glun2B subunits within the spinal cord and lacks motor side effects commonly associated with non-subunit-selective NMDAr antagonism, namely sedation and motor ...

Is agmatine an endogenous factor against stress?
, 2003 Agmatine is an endogenous amine synthesized from the decarboxylation of arginine. A proposed intracellular role of agmatine is to balance the production of polyamines (a promitotic process) and nitric oxide (an inflammatory process).
