From: Tissue-specific regulation of potassium homeostasis by high doses of cationic amino acids
Effects of ornithine HCl and ornithine-asparte administration to mice on plasma (a), pancreas (b), and liver (c) potassium levels. Amino acids (4 g/kg) were given intraperitoneally (two injections, 1 h apart) and tissue potassium was determined 2 h after the last injection. Results are given as mean ± SE from a minimum of six animals. Statistical significance: (***) P < 0.0001 versus control. (++) P < 0.001 versus l-ornithine HCl
