Synonym(s): Tilarginine; Methylarginine
- CAS No.: 17035-90-4
- Formula:C7H16N4O2
- Molecular Weight:188.23
IUPAC Name: Nw-methyl-L-arginine
InChIKey: NTNWOCRCBQPEKQ-YFKPBYRVSA-N

Biological Activity: L-NMMA (Tilarginine) is a non-selective and competitive inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase. L-NMMA inhibits three subtypes, namely nNOS, eNOS, and iNOS, and reduces NO production. L-NMMA alleviates mechanical allodynia, thermal hyperalgesia, and choroidal fibrosis. L-NMMA is applicable to research related to nociception, bone cancer pain, and myopia[1][2][3].
