supplement:

Lysine

drug:

Urea

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Because lysine can act as a competitive inhibitor of the conversion of arginine to ornithine and urea , an increased level of plasma lysine may therefore inhibit the urea cycle.

Increasing the dietary SID Val Lys ratio linearly increased N retention (P < 0.04) and quadratically decreased plasma concentrations of urea (P < 0.01).

Urea supplementation depressed plasma Lys , doubled plasma Cit with soybean meal and conglomerated corn starters, but depressed plasma Cit with roasted soybeans and conglomerated corn starters.

Several unassigned side-chain NH's of arginine or lysine are highly protected from exchange by urea , suggesting that they are the location of urea binding sites on the surface of the molecule.

A deficiency of arginine and lysine increased urea and citrate excretions to a greater extent than either deficiency alone.

Surgery increased the concentration gradient (release) of urea across liver by 60%, the glucose gradient (release) by 35%, and doubled the concentration gradients (uptake) across liver of alanine, arginine, glycine, lysine , proline, serine, and threonine, and decreased their plasma concentrations.
