Nitric oxide (NO) is formed by a class of NO synthases (NOS), which convert arginine into citrulline. A decreased in vivo NO availability can be the result of an increased NO inactivation or a decreased NO production. The latter can be assessed by measurement of isotopic enrichment of plasma citrull
