macrophage cell, infection with Mycobacterium bovis strain AS-1 lacking an arginine permease. AS-1 infection enhances enzyme activity in resting J774.1 cells. Intracellular growth of AS-1 is enhanced by inhibition of enzyme and of ornithine decarboxylase using L-norvaline and difluoromethylornithine treatment

-
significant decrease of enzyme activity during 7th-21st day of gestation, significant increase in enzyme activity at term gestation, day 22. Gestational changes in enzyme activity negatively correlate with those in cyclic GMP production and positively correlate with those in endogenous NO synthase inhibitors and endothelin-1 contents. Enhanced enzyme activity at term gestation may be implicated in increasing myometrial contractions mediated by increase in endothelin-1

placental villi, isoform arginase-I is observed only in cytophoblasts, arginase-II in both cytophoblasts and synciotrophoblasts. Both isoforms are expressed in the first trimester and at term, enzyme activity is greater in the first trimester than at term
