Effects of NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester on renal function and blood pressure.
The dose-dependent effects of intravenous infusions of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis inhibitor, NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME; 0.1, 1, 10, and 50 micrograms.kg-1.min-1), were studied in anesthetized rats to determine whether the inhibitory actions of L-NAME are manifested primarily in alterations of renal function or whether they are the consequences of the increase in systemic blood p...
متن کاملNG-nitro L-arginine methyl ester and other alkyl esters of arginine are muscarinic receptor antagonists.
Analogues of L-arginine with modifications at the terminal guanidino nitrogen and/or the carboxyl terminus of the molecule have been widely used for their ability to inhibit the production of nitric oxide and are thought to be competitive antagonists of nitric oxide synthase. The present studies were designed to test the possibility that these agents are also muscarinic receptor antagonists. Ac...
متن کاملN omega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester reduces the incidence of IDDM in BB/E rats.
Evidence that nitric oxide (NO) is involved in cytokine-mediated islet beta-cell dysfunction and destruction in vitro has led to the hypothesis that increased production of NO may contribute to the pathogenesis of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). This study demonstrates that oral administration of N omega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (an inhibitor of NO synthase) from 30 to 150 days...

متن کاملSympathetic Baroreceptor Responses After Chronic A^-Nitro-L-Arginine Methyl Ester Treatment in Conscious Rats
Blood pressure elevations after nitric oxide inhibition may result in part from increased sympathetic tone. In this study arterial baroreceptor reflex control of heart rate, renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA), and adrenal sympathetic nerve activity (ASNA) were compared in rats given normal tap water or a 3.7 nmol/L (10 mg%) solution of jV°-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) for 1 or 5 ...
