L-Arginine (L-Arg) is a substrate for endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), participating in protein synthesis, polyamine production, and cellular signaling regulation. L-Arginine is transported into vascular smooth muscle cells via the cationic amino acid transporter family and metabolized into nitric oxide, polyamines, or L-proline. L-Arginine is an effective vasodilator and can be used to induce experimental acute pancreatitis.
