Impact of l‐citrulline on nitric oxide signaling and arginase activity in hypoxic human pulmonary artery endothelial cells
Abstract Impaired nitric oxide (NO) signaling contributes to the development of pulmonary hypertension (PH). The l‐arginine precursor, l‐citrulline, improves NO signaling and has therapeutic potential in PH. However, there is evidence that l‐citrulline might increase arginase activity, which in turn...
