Argininosuccinate synthase 1 suppresses tumor progression through activation of PERK/eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP axis in hepatocellular carcinoma [PDF]
Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignant cancers worldwide, and liver cancer has increased in mortality due to liver cancer because it was detected at an advanced stages in patients with liver dysfunction, making HCC ...

Nitric oxide (NO) deficiency contributes to chronic kidney disease progression. NO deficiency could occur for many reasons, one of which is decreased NO synthase (NOS) abundance and/or activity.

Insulin transcriptionally regulates argininosuccinate synthase to maintain vascular endothelial function [PDF]
Diminished vascular endothelial cell nitric oxide (NO) production is a major factor in the complex pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus. In this report, we demonstrate that insulin not only maintains endothelial NO production through regulation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), but also via the regulation of argininosuccinate synthase (AS ...

Dual Urea Cycle Dysfunction Caused by Coexisting Argininosuccinic Aciduria and Citrin Deficiency: Clinical, Biochemical, and Molecular Insights From an Exceptional Case [PDF]
ABSTRACT Dual inherited defects affecting urea cycle function are exceptionally rare. We report the first case, to our knowledge, of the coexistence of argininosuccinic aciduria (ASA) and citrin deficiency (CD). A girl born to consanguineous Tunisian parents presented at 6 months of age with recurrent seizures, vomiting, developmental delay, and severe

Etoposide-induced protein 2.4 homolog promotes argininosuccinate synthase 1 and cancer cell survival upon arginine deprivation [PDF]
Background Arginine auxotrophy has been reported in a subset of cancers with inherently defective de novo arginine synthesis. However, the use of arginine deprivation therapy seems to be unequally effective, partially owing to the resistance acquired by ...

Inadvertent gene silencing of argininosuccinate synthase ( bcass1 ) in Botrytis cinerea by the pLOB1 vector system [PDF]
SUMMARY For several years, researchers working on the plant pathogen Botrytis cinerea and a number of other related fungi have routinely used the pLOB1 vector system, based on hygromycin resistance, under the control of the Aspergillus nidulans oliC

Argininosuccinate synthase: at the center of arginine metabolism. [PDF]
The levels of L-arginine, a cationic, semi-essential amino acid, are often controlled within a cell at the level of local availability through biosynthesis. The importance of this temporal and spatial control of cellular L-arginine is highlighted by the tissue specific roles of argininosuccinate synthase (argininosuccinate synthetase) (EC 6.3.4.5), as ...

Nitric oxide is postulated to be involved in the pathophysiology of neurological disorders due to hypoxia/ anoxia in brain due to increased release of glutamate and activation of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors.

Role of Argininosuccinate Synthase 1 ‐Dependent L‐Arginine Biosynthesis in the Protective Effect of Endothelial Sirtuin 3 Against Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Atherosclerosis is initiated with endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction and vascular inflammation under hyperlipidemia. Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) is a mitochondrial deacetylase.
