The shifted balance of arginine metabolites in acute myocardial infarction patients and its clinical relevance

Abstract The arginine metabolism as a target for cardioprotection in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains insufficiently understood. Arginine, ornithine, citrulline, asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and proline plasma levels were measured using liquid chromatogr...

Arginine, ornithine, citrulline, asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and proline plasma levels were measured using liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry in 70 consecutive STEMI patients upon admission and at 6-month follow-up and were compared with left ventricular function, volumes, and infarct characteristics determined by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, and with 5-year clinical outcomes. Baseline median concentration of arginine was higher by 49% (P = 0.002) when compared to 6-month measurements and was correlated with an ischemia risk area (R = 0.34, P = 0.004) and infarct size (R = 0.33, P = 0.006).
