Application

NG-Methyl-L-arginine acetate salt has been used:
  • as an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in wound healing studies in injured mice[1]
  • as an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) to study nitric oxide (NO) immunosuppressive effect of murine stem cells[2]
  • as an inhibitor to monitor NO levels in hemocytes respiratory burst assay[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

NG-Methyl-L-arginine is an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase in neurons, endothelial cells, and macrophages.[4] It inhibits endothelium-derived relaxing factor and promotes contraction in pulmonary artery and vein. It stereo selectively inhibits the generation of nitric oxide (NO) from arginine.[5] It promotes epinephrine and glucose levels, contributing to hyperglycemia in central nervous system.[6]
