“Given together, L-arginine and L-NAME counteract each other, while either the "L-NAME presentation" (acute intoxication) or the "L-arginine presentation" (withdrawal) predominates.”

“The arginine-induced insulin release is via the production of nitric oxide, since treatment with N(G)-nitro-l-arginine , an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase, blocks insulin secretion induced by l-arginine.”

“The vasodilatator action of arginine , but not ET-1, was attenuated by N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester , indicating that the effect of the peptide is probably not mediated through increased synthesis of nitric oxide.”
