“Pretreatment with l‐NMMA caused a prompt drop in myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, suggesting rapid adhesion of PMNL to the coronary wall; this effect was significantly blunted by l‐arginine.”
“Pretreatment with l‐NMMA , caused a marked rise in cys‐LT concentrations which was prevented by l‐arginine.”
“… NG‐monomethyl‐l‐arginine , 10 μm (l‐NMMA), induced a marked increase in CPP (290±40 mmHg, at 20 min) and in … it caused cardiac arrest in systole in 5 out of 6 hearts and these were prevented by l‐arginine , 100 μm (CPP 115±… mmHg, at 30 min).”
