Arginine as host directed therapy in tuberculosis: insights from modulating arginine metabolism by supplementation and arginase inhibition

Abstract Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), remains a global health challenge. Arginine metabolism is central to immune responses, regulating nitric oxide (NO) production via inducible NO synthase (Nos2) and competing pathways mediated by arginases (Arg1 and Arg2). This s...
