n(g),n(g')-dimethyl-l-arginine and Obesity

n(g),n(g')-dimethyl-l-arginine has been researched along with Obesity in 41 studies

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

Obesity: A status with BODY WEIGHT that is grossly above the recommended standards, usually due to accumulation of excess FATS in the body. The standards may vary with age, sex, genetic or cultural background. In the BODY MASS INDEX, a BMI greater than 30.0 kg/m2 is considered obese, and a BMI greater than 40.0 kg/m2 is considered morbidly obese (MORBID OBESITY).
