Guanidinosuccinic acid(CAT: I019740) is an endogenous metabolite derived from the breakdown of arginine in the body. It is a guanidine compound that plays a role in the urea cycle and the metabolism of arginine. Guanidinosuccinic acid has been implicated in the pathogenesis of certain kidney and liver diseases, as well as neurological disorders. It is considered a potential biomarker for assessing renal function and metabolic abnormalities.
