Asymmetric dimethylarginine (CAT: I019868) is a biologically significant molecule with crucial roles in various physiological processes. As an endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), it regulates the production of nitric oxide, a key signaling molecule involved in vascular relaxation and cardiovascular health. Elevated levels of asymmetric dimethylarginine have been linked to endothelial dysfunction, a condition associated with several pathological states, including cardiovascular diseases and hypertension.
