L-NAME inhibits NOS with an IC50 of 70 µM. L-NAME is a precursor to NOS inhibitor L-NOARG which has an IC50 value of 1.4 µM. L-NAME requires hydrolysis of the methyl ester by cellular esterases to become a fully functional inhibitor. L-NAME can be used to induce hypertension and preeclampsia models.
