The Inhibition of Arginase by N (ω)-Hydroxy-l-Arginine Controls the Growth of Leishmania Inside Macrophages

Polyamine synthesis from l-ornithine is essential for Leishmania growth. We have investigated the dependence of Leishmania infection on arginase, which generates l-ornithine, in macrophages from BALB/c, C57BL/6, and nitric oxide synthase II (NOS II)-deficient mouse strains. We have found that N (ω)-...
