D(-)-Arginine Usage And Synthesis

Description

D-arginine is the D-form of arginine, which is a kind of amino acids. It can be reacted with hydrogen peroxide for non-enzymatic synthesis of nitric oxide. It has certain pharmacological activities. For example, its derivative, 1-deamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin is useful for the management of haemophilia and von Willebrand’s disease. It also has the potential to inhibit the proliferation of certain cancer cells. In biological research, D-arginine is frequently used in the studies of L-arginine/nitric oxide pathway as an inactive form of L-arginine.

Chemical Properties

white to light yellow crystal powde

Uses

Arginine is an essential amino acid found in food and plant sources, and many biological systems.
D-Arginine is extensively used in studies on L-arginine/nitric oxide pathway as an inactive form of L-arginine, even in man.
D-Arginine is slightly soluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). D-Arginine can be found in human epidermis and platelet tissues. Within the cell, D-arginine is primarily located in the peroxisome. D-Arginine specifically can inhibit arginine decarboxylase enzymes and also functions as a metabolite.

Uses

1-Deamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin makes a new pharmacological approach to the management of haemophilia and von Willebrand's disease. A novel nonenzymatic pathway for the generation of nitric oxide is by the reaction of hydrogen peroxide and d- or l-arginine.

Definition

ChEBI: D-arginine is a D-alpha-amino acid that is the D-isomer of arginine. It has a role as an EC 4.1.1.19 (arginine decarboxylase) inhibitor and a mouse metabolite. It is a D-alpha-amino acid and an arginine. It is a conjugate base of a D-argininium(1+). It is a conjugate acid of a D-argininate. It is an enantiomer of a L-arginine.

in vivo

D-arginine (1 mg/kg, i.v., caudal veins, every two days) sensitize osteosarcoma to radiotherapy in a mouse model of subcutaneous osteosarcoma[3].
The number of D-arginine residues in cell-penetrating peptides (i.v.) significantly affects their cellular uptake behavior and systemic toxicity in mice[4].
D-Arginine (700 mg/kg, i.p.) displays central stimulant properties and increases spontaneous motor activity in mice[5].
D-arginine (i.p.) shows a light toxicity order (LD50: 2800 mg/kg) in mice[5].
D-arginine (1400 mg/kg, i.p.) protects against Pentylenetetrazole-induced convulsions in mice[5].
D-arginine (1000 mg/kg, p.o., 16 weeks) significantly alters various enzymes and metabolites in the arginine metabolic pathways in male SD rats[6].
D-arginine (1000 mg/kg, s.c., coadministered with L-arginine) blocks antinociception elicited by L-arginine (HY-N0455) in mice with Carrageenin-induced hyperalgesia[7].
D-arginine (20 mg/kg, s.c.) does not significantly alter the percentage of antinociception in mice[8].

Animal Model:Female BALB/c mice (anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of 3% pentobarbital sodium; K7M2 cells were injected subcutaneously; X-ray irradiation)[2]
Dosage:1 mg/kg
Administration: Intravenous injection (i.v.), caudal veins, every two days
Result:Inhibited tumor volume (20 days).
