Neuronal nitric oxide synthase : a biomarker for Alzheimers disease : interaction of neuronal nitric oxide synthase with beta-amyloid peptides in the brain

High levels of the amino acid arginine and low levels of the product citrulline in the cerebrospinal fluid of Alzheimer's patients could mean that there is a decrease in the enzymes that metabolize this amino acid. One such enzyme is neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). In this study, neurona...
