Influence of L-arginine Supplement on Immune Function
Abstract：Objective:To explore the influence of L-arginine supplement on immune function of rats and mice. Methods:To observethe change of humoral and cell immune response, the level of nitric oxide content in blood and urine, and the spleen morphology influenced by L-arginine supplement. Results:A certain dose of L-arginine could increase antibody production by B-cellmediated humoral immune response, intensify delayed hypersensitivity, and promote immune function of spleen and hyperplasia of lymph nodule. It didn＇t influence T-lymphocyte transform function in normal mice. There was no promoting function in the secretion of hybridoma in vitro with certain dose. L-arginine can increase the production of nitric oxide withoutstorage in the body. Conclusion: L-arginine supplement can enhance the body immune function.
