l-Citrulline is an effective precursor of l-arginine produced by the l-citrulline/l-arginine cycle, and it exerts beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system by supporting enhanced nitric oxide (NO) production.

Does canine inflammatory bowel disease influence gut microbial profile and host metabolism? [PDF]
Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) refers to a diverse group of chronic gastrointestinal diseases, and gut microbial dysbiosis has been proposed as a modulating factor in its pathogenesis.

Chemoreactomic analysis of citrulline malate molecules
Citrulline malate that is essential for the biosynthesis of arginine promotes dehydration of ammonium endotoxins, by participating in the urea cycle. The indications for the use of citrulline malate are functional asthenia, asthenic syndrome, overfatigue,

Citrullination and Autophagy [PDF]
During evolution, the eukaryotic cells develop different processes in order to adapt themselves to environmental changes, as well as to die or to survive. These processes include apoptosis, NETosis, and autophagy: citrullination is implicated in all of these physiological mechanisms.

Autophagy, citrullination and cancer [PDF]
A cell needs to maintain a balance between biosynthesis and degradation of cellular components to maintain homeostasis. There are 2 pathways, the proteasome, which degrades short-lived proteins, and the autophagy/lysosomal pathway, which degrades long-lived proteins and organelles. Both of these pathways are also involved in antigen presentation or the

Increased plasma citrulline in mice marks diet-induced obesity and may predict the development of the metabolic syndrome. [PDF]
In humans, plasma amino acid concentrations of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) and aromatic amino acids (AAA) increase in states of obesity, insulin resistance and diabetes.

Intermittent hypoxia (IH) is a landmark of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) at the core of the cardiovascular consequences of OSA. IH triggers oxidative stress, a major underlying mechanism for elevated blood pressure (BP) and increased infarct size.

Citrulline as a marker of intestinal function and absorption in clinical settings: A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Background: Citrulline has been described as a marker of intestinal function or absorption but evidence varies according to clinical settings. Objective: The objective of this article is to examine the evidence of plasma citrulline as a marker of ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Citrulline a more suitable substrate than arginine to restore NO production and the microcirculation during endotoxemia. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Impaired microcirculation during endotoxemia correlates with a disturbed arginine-nitric oxide (NO) metabolism and is associated with deteriorating organ function.
