Autophagy maintains tumor growth through circulating arginine

Nature, 2018
Autophagy captures intracellular components and delivers them to lysosomes, where they are degraded and recycled to sustain metabolism and to enable survival during starvation1–5.

Effects of Arginine and Arginine Mimics on Antimicrobial Peptide Behavior [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2013
Antimicrobial peptides are naturally occurring components of the innate immune system which serve as a first line of defense against bacterial infection. While hundreds of antimicrobial peptides have been identified from natural sources, there is little in the way of consensus sequences that can identify peptides as antimicrobial.

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Dietary Supplementation with L-Citrulline Between Days 1 and 60 of Gestation Enhances Embryonic Survival in Lactating Beef Cows

Animals
Low fertility limits reproductive efficiency in cattle. This study was conducted with multiparous Brangus cows receiving dietary supplementation with or without L-citrulline [Cit; an immediate precursor of L-arginine (Arg)].

The cell cycle program of polypeptide labeling in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]

, 1977
The cell cycle program of polypeptide labeling in syndhronous cultures of wild-type Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was analyzed by pulse-labeling cells with 35SO4 = or [3H]arginine at different cell cycle stages.

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

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

Alterations in the cecal microbiome of New Zealand White rabbits due to the long-acting anticoagulant rodenticide brodifacoum

Toxicology Communications
Introduction Long-acting anti-coagulant rodenticides (LAARs) are well characterized with respect to inhibition of vitamin K1 synthesis and effects on blood coagulation.

Biochemical regulation of arginine biosynthesis in plants [PDF]

, 2019
Arginine plays a relevant role in plant metabolism due to its importance as building block of proteins but also as precursor of multiple secondary metabolites, polyamines and nitric oxide.

L-arginine: A unique amino acid for improving depressed wound immune function following hemorrhage [PDF]

, 2002
Objective: To determine whether L-arginine has any salutary effects on wound immune cell function following trauma-hemorrhage. Background. Depressed wound immune function contributes to an increased incidence of wound infections following hemorrhage ...
