Despite extensive atherosclerosis, endothelial function in diseased lower extremity human arteries can be enhanced by l-arg infusion secondary to increased nitric oxide bioactivity. Further studies of l-arg as a therapeutic modality in patients with endothelial dysfunction (ie, acute limb ischemia) are warranted.
