In rats, oral administration of 10-30 mg/kg of L-arginine L-glutamic acid dose-dependently increases stomach emptying. The vagus nerve must be activated for this action to occur. Additionally, intragastric L-arginine L-glutamic acid (3–30 mg/kg) improves gastric adaptive relaxation in rats in a dose-dependent manner.

Animal Protocol |
mino acids are not only constituents of proteins, but also have multiple physiologic functions. Recent findings have revealed that ingested amino acids either activate luminal receptors or are metabolized, causing physiologic reactions in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. We examined the effect of oral L-arginine L-glutamate (ArgGlu), a pharmaceutical amino acid salt used i.v. for the treatment of hyperammonemia, on gastric motor function in rats and dogs. Gastric emptying was determined using phenol red and 13C-breath test methods, whereas gastric relaxation was determined using the barostat method. ArgGlu (10-30 mg/kg, p.o.) dose-dependently promoted gastric emptying in rats. This effect was dependent on vagus nerve activation and comparable to that of the prokinetic mosapride. Intragastric ArgGlu (3-30 mg/kg intragastrically) also dose-dependently enhanced adaptive relaxation of rat stomachs, which was negated not by vagotomy of gastric branches, but by pretreatment with N omega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (20 mg/kg i.v.), a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor. Its relaxing effect on the stomach was also confirmed in dogs and was equally as efficacious as treatment with sumatriptan (1-3 mg/kg s.c.). ArgGlu (30 mg/kg p.o.) significantly reduced the half gastric emptying time in clonidine-induced delayed gastric emptying of solids in dogs, and its effect was comparable to that of cisapride (3 mg/kg p.o.). This study demonstrated that the pharmaceutical ingredient ArgGlu, currently used i.v., enhanced gastric motor function when administered orally, suggesting that it could be a new oral medicine indicated for treatment of upper GI hypofunction or dysfunction like functional dyspepsia.[1]

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
