DOI: 10.1007/s00726-017-2413-6
Abstract: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with high rates of cardiovascular events mainly due to coronary and cerebrovascular atherosclerotic disease. Asymmetric (ADMA) and symmetric (SDMA) dimethylarginines are endogenous inhibitors of nitric oxide synthase and have been… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/eurjpc/zwaf236.533
Abstract: Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and derivatives of arginine (i.e. symmetric [SDMA] and asymmetric [ADMA] dimethylarginine), have been linked to endothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular diseases. However, the relationship between S1P and arginine derivates is currently unclear. We investigated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jvim.17162
Abstract: Abstract Background Symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA), a sensitive biomarker for detecting renal injury, has not been characterized in goats. Obstructive urolithiasis (OU) is the most common urinary tract disease in male small ruminants. Hypothesis/Objective Establish an… read more here.
