NG-Monoethyl-L-arginine, a putative in vivo product after administration of the potent hepatocarcinogen L-ethionine to rats, has been chemically synthesized by coupling N-ethyl, S- methylthiopseudouronium iodide with alpha-amino-blocked L-ornithine. The structure of the compound as NG-monoethyl-L-ar
NG-Monomethylagmatine, a decarboxylation product of NG-monomethyl-L-arginine, has been synthesized by reacting putrescine with N,S-dimethylthiopseudouronium iodide. The structural identity of the product was confirmed by proton NMR and mass spectroscopy, and its properties were determined on thin-la
## Abstract The N^2^‐methyl amino acid N^G^‐mesitylenesulfonyl‐[^3^H]methylarginine has been prepared in high specific activity tritium labelled form by treating methyl N^2^‐2,4‐dimethoxybenzyl‐N^G^‐mesitylenesulfonyl‐arginate with [^3^H]methyl iodide and silver(I) oxide. Removal of the dimethoxybe
Enhanced pulmonary production of nitric oxide (NO) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS). NO inhibition with N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) in both animals and humans with HPS has improved arterial hypoxemia. We assessed the role of enhanced NO produc
