Biological Activity
Arginase[1]
nor-NOHA (0.1-1 mM, 72 h) dihydrochloride induces apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner under hypoxia (1.5% O2) in K562 cells[1].
nor-NOHA (1 mM, 72 h) dihydrochloride attenuates hypoxia-mediated resistance towards Imatinib (HY-15463) in K562 or KCL22 cells[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
nor-NOHA (100 mg/kg, i.v., once time) dihydrochloride induces a significant reduction of infarct size in male Sprague-Dawley rats[2].
nor-NOHA (100 mg/kg, i.v., once time) dihydrochloride increases plasma citrulline and nitrite levels and decreases the ornithine plasma levels in male Sprague-Dawley rats[2].
nor-NOHA (100 mg/kg; intravenous penile vein injection) dihydrochloride improves liver I/R injury[3].

Bar plots showing proportions of TNF-α+ T cells in fetal liver whole blood following PMA simulation. T cells were cultured alone (light green) or co-cultured with matched fetal neutrophils (orange) in the presence or absence of ARG1 inhibitor (nonor-NOHA monoacetate; overnight) or L-arginine supplementation, as indicated on the x axis.
