Overexpression of Arginine Transporter CAT-1 Is Associated with Accumulation of L-Arginine and Cell Growth in Human Colorectal Cancer Tissue

We previously showed that L-arginine (Arg) accumulates in colorectal cancer tissues. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism by which Arg accumulates and determine its biological significance. The concentration of Arg and Citrulline (Cit) in sera and tumor tissues from colorectal canc...
