Arginine

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Cholinergic stimulation of the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal axis and adrenal medulla by physostigmine enhances secretion of arginine vasopressin, epinephrine, and norepinephrine.
Anesthesiology  •  1998  |  View Paper
Acute pretreatment with increasing doses of physostigmine markedly affected the blood pressure response to L-arginine (i.e., L-arginine-caused hypotension was more pronounced), but only slightly that to L-NAME.
In conclusion, L-arginine , as a donor of NO, produced hypotension by itself and also decreased, but not significantly, the central cholinergically-mediated hypertension (CCMH) produced by physostigmine.
L-arginine and L-NAME depressed the pressor responses to physostigmine , if physostigmine was injected after the end of a 1-hr infusion.

It is concluded that L-arginine-NO pathways act in vivo to oppose peripheral vasoconstrictor influences coupled with central cholinergically mediated activation of the adrenergic system, as produced by physostigmine.
