Arginase II Downregulates Nitric Oxide (NO) Production and Prevents NO-mediated Apoptosis in Murine Macrophage-derived RAW 264.7 Cells
Excess nitric oxide (NO) induces apoptosis of some cell types, including macrophages. As NO is synthesized by NO synthase (NOS) from arginine, a common substrate of arginase, these two enzymes compete for arginine. There are two known isoforms of arginase, types I and II. Using murine macrophage-lik...
