Mouse Arginase-2 - ARG2 ELISA Kit

May play a role in the regulation of extra-urea cycle arginine metabolism and also in down-regulation of nitric oxide synthesis. Extrahepatic arginase functions to regulate L-arginine bioavailability to nitric oxid synthase (NOS). Arginine metabolism is a critical regulator of innate and adaptive immune responses. Seems to be involved in negative regulation of the survival capacity of activated CD4+ and CD8+ T cells (PubMed:27745970, PubMed:25009204). May suppress inflammation-related signaling in asthmatic airway epithelium (PubMed:27214549). May contribute to the immune evasion of H.pylori by restricting M1 macrophage activation and polyamine metabolism (PubMed:27074721). May play a role in promoting prenatal immune suppression (By...

May contribute to the immune evasion of H.pylori by restricting M1 macrophage activation and polyamine metabolism (PubMed:27074721). May play a role in promoting prenatal immune suppression (By similarity). Regulates RPS6KB1 signaling, which promotes endothelial cell senescence and inflammation and implicates NOS3/eNOS dysfunction (PubMed:22928666). Can inhibit endothelial autophagy independently of its enzymatic activity implicating mTORC2 signaling (PubMed:25484082). Involved in vascular smooth muscle cell senescence and apoptosis independently of its enzymatic activity (By similarity).
