Accumulation of the endogenous L-arginine analogue NG-monomethyl-L-arginine in human end-stage renal failure patients on regular haemodialysis.

abstract：:A great variety of viruses have been engineered to serve as expression vectors. Among them, the alphaviruses Semliki Forest virus and Sindbis virus represent promising tools for heterologous gene expression in a wide variety of host cells. Several applications have already been described in neurobiological studies, in...
