Nonspecific blockade of vascular free radical signals by methylated arginine analogues

Nonspecific blockade of vascular free radical signals by methylated arginine analogues

Methylated arginine analogues are often used as probes of the effect of nitric oxide; however, their specificity is unclear and seems to be frequently overestimated. This study analyzed the effects of NG-methyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA) on the endothelium-dependent release of vascular superoxide radicals...
