n(g),n(g')-dimethyl-l-arginine and Muscle Contraction

n(g),n(g')-dimethyl-l-arginine has been researched along with Muscle Contraction in 5 studies

N,N-dimethylarginine: asymmetric dimethylarginine; do not confuse with N,N'-dimethylarginine

Muscle Contraction: A process leading to shortening and/or development of tension in muscle tissue. Muscle contraction occurs by a sliding filament mechanism whereby actin filaments slide inward among the myosin filaments.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"These results strongly suggest that impaired endothelium dependent and NO mediated cavernous relaxation with aging is due to decreased NO production, which would result from increased arginase activity and probably from decreased L-arginine content."3.72Involvement of increased arginase activity in impaired cavernous relaxation with aging in the rabbit. ( Azuma, H; Kihara, K; Kurosaki, E; Masuda, H; Sakai, Y; Yamauchi, Y, 2004)
"To establish the role played by the circulating nitric oxide synthase inhibitors N(G)-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA), asymmetrical dimethyl arginine (ADMA) and symmetric dimethyl arginine (SDMA) and its association with hypertension of children and adolescents."3.69Nitric oxide synthase inhibitors and hypertension in children and adolescents. ( Dillon, MJ; Frend, A; Goonasekera, CD; Rees, DD; Shah, V; Woolard, P, 1997)
"Aspirin at the lower dose (30 mg/kg) protects the endothelium against damages elicited by LDL in vivo, and the protective effect of aspirin on endothelium is related to reduction of ADMA concentration by increasing DDAH activity."1.32Aspirin protected against endothelial damage induced by LDL: role of endogenous NO synthase inhibitors in rats.
