Abstract:
Experimental studies on rats revealed that the newborns growth retardation, caused by long-term treatment with Dexamethasone in the neonatal period, can be prevented by the simultaneous with dexamethasone administration of the nitric oxide donor--L-arginine. This indicates that the mentioned Dexamethasone-induced growth disorder is caused by inhibition of Nitric Oxide Synthases activity.
