Argininosuccinic acid participates in the fourth step of the urea cycle, with being cleaved to arginine and fumaric acid by argininosuccinic acid lyase (ASL). Argininosuccinic acid reduces reduced glutathione (GSH) level, and increases the production of reactive oxygen species in cerebral cortex and striatum. Argininosuccinic acid causes lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation, and induces oxidative stress in the developing rat brain.

Description

Argininosuccinic acid participates in the fourth step of the urea cycle, with being cleaved to arginine and fumaric acid by argininosuccinic acid lyase (ASL). Argininosuccinic acid reduces reduced glutathione (GSH) level, and increases the production of reactive oxygen species in cerebral cortex and striatum. Argininosuccinic acid causes lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation, and induces oxidative stress in the developing rat brain[1][2].

In Vitro

Argininosuccinic acid (250-1000 μM; 1 h) significantly increases MDA levels and decreases sulfhydryl and carbonyl formation (protein oxidation) in cerebral cortex[1].
Argininosuccinic acid (250-1000 μM; 1 h) decreases reduced glutathione (GSH) concentrations in cerebral cortex of 30-day-old rats[1].
Argininosuccinic acid (500 μM; 1 h) increases 2’,7’-dichlorofluorescein (DCFH) oxidation in cerebral cortex of 30-day-old rats[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
