Effect of Arginase Inhibition on Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease with and without Diabetes Mellitus

BACKGROUND: Arginase competes with nitric oxide synthase for their common substrate L-arginine. Up-regulation of arginase in coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes mellitus may reduce nitric oxide bioavailability contributing to endothelial dysfunction and ischemia-reperfusion injury. Arginase i...
