Whole Body Nitric Oxide Synthesis in Healthy Men Determined from [$^{15}$N]arginine-to-[$^{15}$N]citrulline Labeling

The rates of whole body nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, plasma arginine flux, and de novo arginine synthesis and their relationships to urea production, were examined in a total of seven healthy adults receiving an L-amino acid diet for 6 days. NO synthesis was estimated by the rate of conversion of th...
