The aetiology of most neurodegenerative disorders is multifactorial and consists of an
interaction between environmental factors and genetic predisposition. Free radicals derived …

The biochemistry and physiology of l-arginine have to be reconsidered in the light of the
recent discovery that the amino acid is the only substrate of all isoforms of nitric oxide …

Approximately 1.7 million people in the United States annually experience a traumatic brain
