Asymmetric dimethylarginine positively modulates Calcium-Sensing Receptor signalling to promote lipid accumulation and adiposity
2022-07-27
Abstract excerpt
Irreversible methylation of arginine residues generates asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA). ADMA is a competitive inhibitor of nitric oxide (NO) synthase and an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Plasma ADMA concentrations increase with obesity and fall following weight loss. Here, we demonstrate that ADMA drives lipid accumulation through a newly identified NO-independent pathway via the amino-a...
