The Effects of L-Arginine (the Precursor of Nitric Oxide) and L-NAME (Nitric Oxide Synthase Inhibitor) on Coronary Angiogenesis in Normal Rats

Background: Nitric oxide (NO) has beneficial effects on cardiovascular system including improvement of angiogenesis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of L-arginine (the precursor of NO) and L-NG-nitroarginine methyl ester (L-NAME) (NO synthase inhibitor) on serum vascular endothelia...
