Manipulation of citrulline availability in humans [PDF]
International audienceTo determine whether circulating citrulline can be manipulated in vivo in humans, and, if so, whether citrulline availability affects the levels of related amino acids, nitric oxide, urinary citrulline, and urea nitrogen, 10 healthy

Citrulline: from metabolism to therapeutic use.: citrulline: metabolism and therapeutic [PDF]
International audienceCitrulline possesses a highly specific metabolism that bypasses splanchnic extraction because it is not used by the intestine or taken up by the liver.

Citrulline Evaluation in Bowel Transplantation [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation of plasma citrulline and rejection episodes in intestinal transplantation. From January 2007 until present, we performed citrulline assays on our small bowel patients.

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.

Clinical and model studies indicate that low nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability due in part to profound hypoargininemia contributes to cerebral malaria (CM) pathogenesis.

Background Hyperoxia is shown to impair airway relaxation via limiting L-arginine bioavailability to nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and reducing NO production as a consequence. L-arginine can also be synthesized by L-citrulline recycling.

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.

Structure and pathogenicity of antibodies specific for citrullinated collagen type II in experimental arthritis [PDF]
Antibodies to citrulline-modifi ed proteins have a high diagnostic value in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, their biological role in disease development is still unclear.

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.

Source and fate of circulating citrulline [PDF]
Previous work has demonstrated a continuous release of citrulline from the small intestine into the circulation. To evaluate the physiologic significance of this process, we have now measured citrulline uptake and release by isolated, perfused livers and,
