L-NMMA hydrochloride
Based on 11 publication(s) in Google Scholar
L-NMMA (Tilarginine) hydrochloride is a non-selective and competitive inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase. L-NMMA hydrochloride inhibits three subtypes, namely nNOS, eNOS, and iNOS, and reduces NO production. L-NMMA hydrochloride alleviates mechanical allodynia, thermal hyperalgesia, and choroidal fibrosis. L-NMMA hydrochloride is applicable to research related to nociception, bone cancer pain, and myopia.

Biological Activity
L-NMMA (20 nmol; intravitreal injection; once every other day; 2 to 4 weeks) hydrochloride alleviates choroidal fibrosis and delays myopia progression by inhibiting the NO signaling pathway in lens-induced myopic guinea pigs[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
