| Research Abstract |
The aim of the present study was to examine whether long-term treatment of L-arginine also improves endothelial function in human forearms. Forearm blood flow (FBF) was measured by strain gauge plethysmography in nine healthy women, before and four weeks after oral treatment with L-arginine (2.5 g/day). FBF was measured during reactive hyperemia (RH). The long-term treatment with L-arginine significantly improved total reactive hyperemic flow (flow debt repayment) (P < 0.01). Our results suggest that L-arginine treatment may increase NO production in endothelium during reactive hyperemia in human forearm vessel.
