Enzymet arginas kan spela en nyckelroll för uppkomsten av hjärt- kärlsjukdom hos personer som redan har diabetes typ 2. Arginas motverkar enligt forskarna bildningen av skyddande kväveoxid i blodkärlen – och behandling som hämmar detta enzym visade sig minska risken för kärlkramp hos diabetespatienterna. Detta visar forskare vid Karolinska Institutet och Karolinska Universitetssjukhuset i en ny un
