Renal Effects of Acute Amino Acid Infusion in Hypertension Induced by Chronic Nitric Oxide Blockade

L-Arginine is the physiological substrate of nitric oxide, a vasodilator that controls blood pressure and renal hemodynamics in the basal state. In the present studies, we produced chronic nitric oxide blockade by oral administration of the L-arginine analogue N -nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, which...
