Application


  • Nanodrugs mediate TAMs-related arginine metabolism interference to boost photodynamic immunotherapy.: This study explores the use of nanodrugs to interfere with arginine metabolism in tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), enhancing the efficacy of photodynamic immunotherapy. L-Norvaline plays a crucial role in this metabolic interference (Chen et al., 2024).

Biochem/physiol Actions

L-Norvaline enhances NO production from activated macrophages.

Freezing represents a common conservation practice regarding vegetal foodstuffs. Since compositional features need to be monitored during storage, the development of rapid monitoring tools suitable for assessing nutritional characteristics arises as a pertinent issue. In this study, cowpea (Vigna unguiculata

In macrophages and many other cell types, L-arginine is used as a substrate by both nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and arginase to produce nitric oxide (NO) and urea, respectively. Because the availability of L-arginine is a major determinant for NO
