Finally, our predictive simulation results also showed that the addition of l-arginine supplementation to the intermittent 5-FU therapy reduced the time of the tumor eradication and the number of iterations for 5-FU treatment.

Altogether, these findings clearly suggest that L-arginine inhibits cell death induced by 5-FU in HUVECs through attenuating the adverse effects of 5-FU, while it does not do so in breast cancer cells.
Combinations of L-arginine and 5-FU increased cell survival in HUVECs but induced cell death in MDA-MB-468 cells.

Our findings indicated that l-arginine increased the anticancer effect of 5-FU in BT-20 and MCF-7 cell lines.
The aim of this study was to evaluate if a combination therapy of l-arginine with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) can alter the effect of this chemotherapy drug on breast cancer cells.
l-arginine increased 5-FU effect on BT-20 and MCF-7 cell lines by reducing cell viability and increasing apoptosis and NO production.

L-Arg may be a good adjuvant for chemotherapy with 5-FU.
We observed the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and apoptosis of cells induced by 5-FU with L-Arg added to the medium.

Supplementation with 50 mg/d of l-arginine decreased the weight loss generated by 5-FU in Wistar rats.

The results suggest that daily supplementation with 295 or 458 mg L-arginine attenuates the side effects of 5-FU , including thrombocytopenia and neutropenia, and modulates IgA production.

In conclusion L-arginine supplementation potentially reduces the jejunal lesions and DNA damage caused by 5-FU.

L-arginine attenuated effectively some biochemical and histological changes in 5-FU nephrotoxicity.
L-arginine improved glomeruloscelerosis, degeneration of convoluted tubules and interstitial fibrosis in 5-FU treated animals.
