L-hydroxy Arginine is a substrate for nitric oxide synthase in the catabolism of L-arginine to form nitric oxide. It has been used as a biomarker for reduced nitric oxide formation in patients with cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome. | [Uses]
L-Hydroxy arginine acetate is an intermediate in the catabolism of L-arginine. L-Hydroxy arginine acetate is a substrate for NO synthase[1]. | [References]
