l-Arginine attenuates acute pulmonary embolism-induced oxidative stress and pulmonary hypertension

l-Arginine is substrate for nitric oxide (NO) synthesis and produces pulmonary vasodilatory effects in patients with pulmonary hypertension and in hypoxic animals. We hypothesized that l-arginine would attenuate the increase in oxidative stress and the pulmonary hypertension observed during acute pu...
