The Restorative Effect of Apocynin and Catalase in L-Arginine-Induced Hypotension on Normotensive Subjects -- the Role of Oxidative Stress.

L-arginine is a substrate for nitric oxide synthase (NOS) responsible for the production of NO. This investigation studied the effect of apocynin, an NADPH oxidase inhibitor and catalase, an H2O2 scavenger on L-arginine-induced oxidative stress and hypotension. Forty Wistar-Kyoto rats were treated f...
