Previous studies have demonstrated the presence of myocardial depression in clinical and experimental septic shock. This response is mediated, in part, through circulating TNF-alpha-induced, nitric oxide-dependent, depression of basal myocyte contractility. Other mechanisms of early myocardial dysfunction involving decreased response

Ethyl(hydroxyethyl) cellulose (EHEC) is known to form hydrogels in water at elevated temperatures in the presence of an ionic surfactant. In this paper, the potential use of arginine-based surfactants is explored considering the production of a low toxicity thermoresponsive hydrogel
We wanted to stabilize the availability of nitric oxide (NO) at levels compatible with normal systemic haemodynamics to provide a model for studies of complex regulations in the absence of changes in NO levels. Normal volunteers (23-28 years) were infused

Polyion complex (PIC) gel of poly(Pro-Hyp-Gly) was successfully fabricated by simply mixing polyanion and polycation derivatives of poly(Pro-Hyp-Gly), a collagen-like polypeptide. The polyanion, succinylated poly(Pro-Hyp-Gly), and the polycation, arginylated poly(Pro-Hyp-Gly), contain carboxy (pK
L-arginine may play a role in regulation of protein metabolism. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of L-arginine supplementation on protein metabolism in skin wound and muscle in anesthetized rabbits. L-[ring-(13)C(6)]phenylalanine was infused as a
