Cationic Arginine-Rich Peptides (CARPs): A Novel Class of Neuroprotective Agents With a Multimodal Mechanism of Action

Frontiers in Neurology, 2020
There are virtually no clinically available neuroprotective drugs for the treatment of acute and chronic neurological disorders, hence there is an urgent need for the development of new neuroprotective molecules.

Arginine Requirement and the Arginine Content of Casein

Poultry Science, 1964
Abstract Much has been written concerning the high arginine requirement of chicks fed diets based on casein as the source of protein. The peculiar amino acid balance of casein, as suggested by studies from this laboratory (Fisher, Shapiro and Griminger, 1960), may in part explain this phenomenon. We now wish to draw attention to a recently published

The role of arginine and arginine-metabolizing enzymes during Giardia - host cell interactions in vitro [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Arginine is a conditionally essential amino acid important in growing individuals and under nonhomeostatic conditions/disease. Many pathogens interfere with arginine-utilization in host cells, especially nitric oxide (NO) production, by ...

Myofibrillar Protein Profile of the Breast Muscle in Turkeys as a Response to the Variable Ratio of Limiting Amino Acids in Feed

Agriculture
The effects of the different dietary levels of Arginine (Arg) in low- and high-methionine (Met) diets on the meat quality and myofibrillar protein profile of breast muscles from turkeys were determined.

Effect of N-Carbamylglutamate Supplementation in Late Pregnancy on Nutrient-Restricted Twin-Bearing Ewes on the Pre-Lambing Maternal Metabolome, Colostrum Quality and Lamb Birth Weight

Animals
Arginine supplementation improves fetal growth and colostrum composition in nutrient-restricted ewes, but its high cost and ruminal degradation limit its practical use. N-carbamylglutamate (NCG), which stimulates endogenous arginine synthesis, and is not

Evolution of histone 2A for chromatin compaction in eukaryotes

eLife, 2014
During eukaryotic evolution, genome size has increased disproportionately to nuclear volume, necessitating greater degrees of chromatin compaction in higher eukaryotes, which have evolved several mechanisms for genome compaction.
