Arginine
Results of this study showed that arginine significantly reduced the size of myocardial infarct following Bohemia and reperfusion in rats exposed to environmental tobacco smoke.

Results of this study showed that the administration of L-arginine reduced infarct size in rats subjected to distal middle cerebral arterial and ipsilateral common carotid arterial occlusion by 31%.

This study examined the effects of dietary L-arginine on the growth and development of Ehrlich Ascites tumor cells in mice. Results showed that significant inhibitions in the growth of tumor-bearing mice fed a purified casein diet supplemented with 5% arginine as well as in the number of free tumor cells growing in the mice.
