“The activity of thrombocytin on this substrate and on platelets was inhibited by diisopropyl fluorophosphate (DFP), soybean trypsin inhibitor, and several arginine chloromethyl ketones.”
“Incubation of the islets with serotonin (4 ×10−3mol/l) was associated with an inhibition of glucagon output both in the basal medium (3.3 mmol/l glucose) and in the presence of arginine (10 mmol/l).”
“RESULTS In vessel rings precontracted with norepinephrine, potassium chloride, ar inine va sopressin, prostaglandin F(2alpha), or ser otonin, H b elicited significant additional contractions.”

“However NO generators, sodium nitroprusside, 3-morpholinosydnonimine and S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine as well as NO precursor, L-arginine markedly inhibited 5-HT induced HTR in mice.”
“ L-arginine also improved the impaired endothelium-dependent relaxations to ADP, and normalized the vasoconstrictor effects of 5-HT in isolated aortic rings.”
“Chronic inhibition of the L-arginine pathway increased the response of the basilar artery to serotonin , while the opposite was found for endothelin.”
“Nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, nitro-D-arginine methyl ester, L-Arg, D-Arg, L-arginine methyl ester and L-arginine ethyl ester , at the dose of 15 mumol/paw, significantly potentiated both bradykinin- and 5-hydroxytryptamine-induced oedema.”

“ 5-hydroxytryptamine , whose antidiuretic effect was previously established, enhanced R in longitudinal muscular cells, and was able to increase R slightly in epithelial cells.”
“Both of the neuronal molecules, which act via distinct transduction pathways (phosphoinositide turnover for neuroparsin, and Ca(2+)-dependent adenylate cyclase for 5-hydroxytryptamine ), stimulated an increase in R by causing Ca2+ entry through dihydropyridine-sensitive Ca2+ channels.”
