Arginase inhibition augments nitric oxide production and facilitates left ventricular systolic function in doxorubicin‐induced cardiomyopathy in mice

A metabolizing enzyme arginase can decrease nitric oxide (NO) production by competing with NO synthase for arginine as a substrate, but its pathophysiological role in heart failure remains unknown. We aimed to investigate the effect of pharmacological inhibition of arginase on left ventricular funct...
