    Mechanisms of arginine-induced increase in cytosolic calcium concentration in the beta-cell line NIT-1

    The effects of l-arginine and its analogues NG-nitro-l-arginine, NG-methyl-l-arginine, l-homoarginine and d-arginine on cytosolic calcium concentration were investigated to characterise the mechanisms of arginin...
