L-arginine deprivation impairs Leishmania major-specific T-cell responses. [PDF]
, 2009 The amino acid L-arginine plays a crucial role in the regulation of immune responses. We have recently shown that uncontrolled replication of Leishmania parasites at the site of pathology correlates with high levels of arginase activity in nonhealing ...

Differential impact of L-arginine deprivation on the activation and effector functions of T cells and macrophages. [PDF]
, 2008 The metabolism of the amino acid L-arginine is emerging as a crucial mechanism for the regulation of immune responses. Here, we characterized the impact of L-arginine deprivation on T cell and macrophage (MPhi) effector functions: We show that whereas L ...

Citrulline a more suitable substrate than arginine to restore NO production and the microcirculation during endotoxemia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: Impaired microcirculation during endotoxemia correlates with a disturbed arginine-nitric oxide (NO) metabolism and is associated with deteriorating organ function.

Effect of L-arginine and L-Lysine HCl ratio on growth performance and ileum morphology of native chickens aged 2-14 weeks [PDF]
Veterinary World, 2022 Background and Aim: Micronutrients such as essential amino acids in chicken feed must be balanced to promote optimal development. The balance of the amino acids arginine and lysine in chicken feed is particularly important.
