L-Arginine Enhances Protein Synthesis by Phosphorylating mTOR (Thr 2446) in a Nitric Oxide-Dependent Manner in C2C12 Cells

Figure 8

The working model of L-arginine/NO in muscle protein synthesis. L-NAME: N-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester; NO: nitric oxide; NOS: nitric oxide synthase; SNP: sodium nitroprusside.
